Pedagogical Approach-Discovery Learning



The pedagogical approach provides a learning experience through a simulated exercise--managing a human service organization. The simulation-learning environment is based on published organizational behavior management research from several types of human service organizations.

The research-based open-systems model incorporates three distinct cyclical phases of learning theory: cognition, application, and reflection. Learners construct new ideas or concepts based upon their own knowledge and experience, make decisions and discover principles. Bruner, whose learning theory underlines the simulation, states that "the instruction should be designed so that the student continually builds upon what "they" have learned"(Keraley, 1994).
