 This feature specifically states the experiences
 which move the learner toward a love
 of learning in general, or of
 learning something in particular.
 Motivational, cultural, and personal factors
 contribute to this.

 Part of the task of a teacher is to
                          maintain
 and direct a child's spontaneous
 explorations.
 it is possible to structure knowledge in a way
 that enables the learner to most
 readily grasp the information.
 Understanding the fundamental
 structure of a subject makes it more
 comprehensible.
 Details are better retained when placed
 within the context of an ordered and
 structured pattern.
 This means that a body of knowledge   must be
 in a simple enough form for the learner
 to understand it and it must be in a form
 recognizable to the student's
 experience.
in
 no one sequencing will fit every learner, but

 general, increasing difficulty.
 Sequencing, or lack of it, can make learning easier
 or more difficult.
 Rewards and punishment should     be
 selected and paced
 appropriately.
 Ideally, interest in subject matter is the
 best stimulus for learning.
 He believed that perception,
  conceptualization, learning,
  decision making, and making
  inferences all involved categorization.
 Bruner suggested a system of coding in
  which people form a hierarchical
  arrangement of related categories.
 Each successively higher level of categories
 becomes more specific.
1. Criterial attributes - required
characteristics for inclusion of an
object in a category. (Example, for an
object to be included in the category "car" it must
have an engine, 4 wheels, and be a possible means
of transportation)

2. The second rule prescribes how the
criterial attributes are combined.
3. The third rule assigns weight           to
 various properties. (Example, it could be a
 car even if a tire was missing, and if it was used for
 hauling cargo it would be shifted to a different
 category of "truck" or perhaps "van".

 4. The fourth rule sets acceptance             limits
 on attributes. Some attributes can vary
 widely, such as color. Others are fixed. For example a
 vehicle without an engine is not a car. Likewise, a
 vehicle with only two wheels would not be included in
 "car".
 Identity categories - categories include objects
 based on their attributes or features.

 Equivalent categories (provide rules      for
 combining categories. Equivalence can be
 determined by affective criteria, which render
 objects equivalent by emotional reactions, functional
 criteria, based on related functions
 Coding systems are categories serve        to
 recognize sensory input. They are major
 organizational variables in higher cognitive
 functioning. Going beyond immediate sensory
 data involves making inferences on the basis of
 related categories. Related categories form a
 "coding system." These are hierarchical
 arrangements of related categories.
