ANSWER: MEDIATED LEARNING EXPERIENCE
EXPLANATION:
MEDIATED LEARNING EXPERIENCE (MLE) refers to the structured approach to learning, which is all age group bound. The subtle of social interaction between teacher and chiid (learner) in the improvements of the learner’s learning experience is also expressed as Mediated Learning Experience.
Mediated Learning Experience (MLE) occurs when children are
guided to metacogntion (learn how to learn) by a mediated agent (often parent, sibling, teacher, or other professional) who has
more knowledge. The mediated agent organizes and transforms stimuli experienced in the extrinsic environment to the child.
L. Vygotsky used sociological approach to develop intelligence and cognition, and described mediation for learning as an crucial path to survival and success.
L. Vygotsky’s theory of the ‘Zone of
Proximal Development’ described four (4) steps in mediated learning experience. They include:
A. Reciprocity (the establishment of a responsiveness between the mediated agent and the child, which is elicited by sharing of cultures).
B. Intent (the explicit goal that is established between the child and the mediator)
C. Meaning (the personal relevance of the learning experience).
D. Transcendence (the expansion of understanding beyond the scope the child is learning in a certain activity, which allows the child to create his/her own learning strategies).
