Abstract

The reviews were made on the book entitled “Learning Theories: An Educational Perspective” written by Schunk in 2020 which aimed at pinpointing important insights for readers. The review was made based on professional guidelines in reviewing books. The reviewers felt that the strengths of the book consist of addressing practical scenarios and objectives; and it explains vicarious and enactive learning, performance learning, self-regulatory learning, and positive effect of authentic modeling. On the other hand, the major limitations of the book include the criteria set to define learning was mainly in favor of behavioral learning theories which is against the notion of the book. There is also inconsistent organization and needless inclusion of contents. Therefore, the reviewers argued that the book is still recommended to education students, early-career researchers in psychology and education provided that the aforementioned limitations are corrected. Keywords: Learning; Self-regulation; Motivation; Cognitive learning; Performance learning

这些评论是对舒克在2020年出版的《学习理论:教育视角》一书进行的，该书旨在为读者提供重要的见解。这篇评论是根据书评的专业指南进行的。审稿人认为这本书的优势在于解决了实际的场景和目标;并解释了替代和主动学习、绩效学习、自我调节学习和真实建模的积极效应。另一方面，本书的主要局限性包括定义学习的标准主要倾向于行为学习理论，这与本书的概念背道而驰。也有不一致的组织和不必要的内容包含。因此，书评人认为，只要纠正上述局限性，这本书仍然推荐给教育学生、心理学和教育领域的早期研究人员。关键词:学习;自律;动机;认知学习;性能的学习
