Course Overview

What students will learn in this 150-minute lesson

  1. ILO 1 — Compare: Contrast the key assumptions of Behaviourism, Cognitivism, and Social Constructivism.
  2. ILO 2 — Apply: Apply a learning theory to a real-world teaching scenario with justification.
  3. ILO 3 — Critically Evaluate: Evaluate AI-generated explanations of learning theories and identify inaccuracies.
  4. ILO 4 — Generate: Create an AI-assisted analogy for a learning theory and assess its pedagogical accuracy.
  5. ILO 5 — Reflect: Reflect on personal AI use and articulate one change to future practices.
🤖 AI Integration in This Lesson

ILOs 3, 4, and 5 specifically target AI literacy. Students will interrogate a flawed AI-generated definition, use AI to scaffold an analogy (then critique it), and reflect metacognitively on their relationship with AI tools. This lesson treats AI as an object of study — not merely a productivity tool — building the critical AI fluency expected of 21st-century educators.
