Introduction of concept
In the process of learning and becoming a teacher, whether it is to be a primary school
teacher or teaching students pursuing bachelor’s degree or any certificate program, the
adaptation of theories. There is mainly five paradigms of teaching theories namely,
“Behaviorism”, “Cognitivism”, “Contructivism”, “Design brain based”, “Humanism”, as well
21st century teaching and learning skills. This study will explain the “Behaviorist approaches”,
“Cognitivism approaches” and “Humanist Approaches”. The study will further provide an
insight of implication of behaviorist approaches in teaching and learning processes, and the
process implemented by teachers in making their student become self-regulated learners. Further
explanation will constitute understanding the effectiveness of metacognition and self-regulation
in learning of students, exploring the various strategies that surrounds cognitive strategies. The
connection between cognitive and constructivism learning will be exemplified by exploring the
strategies. Humanistic Theory will be aligned to the need of implementing “Maslow’s Hierarchy
of Needs” and “Rogers’s concept of Freedom to learn” and their implications will be discussed.
Definitions of Concept
The explanation of “Behaviorism theory” can be constituted by understanding the
student’s behaviors that get affected by various external factors and that helps in better learning
processes. Teachers implement positive and negative reinforcement as tools to relate to students
behavioral pattern and modification-taking place, the learning processes includes punishments
and rewarding systems as important learning processes in bringing discipline and make them
self-regulated. Jean Piaget developed “Cognitivism”, which circulates the concept of a child
perception and cognitive behavior in accepting the external situations and the experiences the
