INTRODUCTION
Both education as well as training are important tools that contribute to the overall
development of an individual. Proper and good education facilitates high quality learning and
allows individuals to enhance their skills, values as well as beliefs. There are different theories as
well as principles in education that are used across various educational institutions (Billett,
2020). This report is based on FE College which is located in London, United Kingdom. The
report includes an analysis of various theories, principles as well as models in education as well
as training. Apart from this, there is an explanation of different ways in which theories, models
as well as principles of learning can be applied to teaching, learning as well as assessment. The
concept of individual learning along with inclusivity teaching and learning is also explained in
the respective report. Communication is one of the most important components of education as
well as training. Lastly, the report also includes a reflection as to how the theories, principles as
well as models are applied into practice.
Task 1
1.1
Theories in education provide a basis so as to understand how different people learn and
a way in order to describe and analyze learning. It allows making decisions that are more
informed decisions. In education, learning theories assist teachers in connecting with different
kinds of students. They focus on different styles of learning in order to create teaching that is
primarily focused on the needs of the students. Behaviorism as well as cognitivism are two
commonly used theories in learning (Bond, Yan and Heene, 2020). Behaviorism can be used in
learning by teaching the students that if the teacher stands quietly in one corner of the room, they
should know that she is getting frustrated. On the other hand, cognitivism can be used by linking
the concepts together or with examples of real world.
There are also different types of models that are used in learning and can be used to
enhance the overall process of learning. Kolb Learning Style Model as well as VARK Learning
Style Model are two models of learning. The first model involves the learners to go through four
stages and those are concrete learning, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization as well
as active experimentation. When VARK model will be applied to learning, various visual as well
