Principles of learning
Educational psychologists and pedagogues have identified several principles of learning, also
referred to as laws of learning, which seem generally applicable to the learning process. These
principles have been discovered, tested, and used in practical situations. They provide additional
insight into what makes people learn most effectively. Edward Thorndike developed the first three
"Laws of learning:" readiness, exercise, and effect. Since Thorndike set down his basic three laws in
the early part of the twentieth century, five additional principles have been added: primacy, recency,
intensity, freedom and requirement.
Readiness
Readiness implies a degree of concentration and eagerness. Individuals learn best when they are
physically, mentally, and emotionally ready to learn, and do not learn well if they see no reason for
learning. Getting students ready to learn, creating interest by showing the value of the subject
matter, and providing continuous mental or physical challenge, is usually the instructor’s
responsibility. If students have a strong purpose, a clear objective, and a definite reason for learning
something, they make more progress than if they lack motivation. In other words, when students are
ready to learn, they meet the instructor at least halfway, simplifying the instructor’s job.
Since learning is an active process, students must have adequate rest, health, and physical ability.
Basic needs of students must be satisfied before they are ready or capable of learning. Students
who are exhausted or in ill health cannot learn much. If they are distracted by outside
responsibilities, interests, or worries, have overcrowded schedules, or other unresolved issues,
students may have little interest in learning. For example, we may identify the situation of an
academic examination of a school, in which the cause of securing good marks in various subjects
leads to mentally and emotionally readiness of students to do more hard labour in acquiring
knowledge.
Exercise
The principle of exercise states that those things most often repeated are best remembered. It is the
basis of drill and practice. It has been proven that students learn best and retain information longer
when they have meaningful practice and repetition. The key here is that the practice must be
meaningful. It is clear that practice leads to improvement only when it is followed by positive
feedback.
The human memory is fallible. The mind can rarely retain, evaluate, and apply new concepts or
practices after a single exposure. Students do not learn complex tasks in a single session. They
learn by applying what they have been told and shown. Every time practice occurs, learning
continues. These include student recall, review and summary, and manual drill and physical
applications. All of these serve to create learning habits. The instructor must repeat important items
of subject matter at reasonable intervals, and provide opportunities for students to practice while
making sure that this process is directed toward a goal. But in some or many cases, there is no need
for regular practice if the skill is acquired once. For instance if we have learnt cycling once, we will
not forget the knowledge or skill even if we aren't exercising it for a long time.
Effect
The principle of effect is based on the emotional reaction of the student. It has a direct relationship to
motivation. The principle of effect is that learning is strengthened when accompanied by a pleasant
or satisfying feeling.

RATIONALIZATION: As defined, Constructivism is a philosophy of learning which asserts that reality
does not exist outside of the human conceptions. It is the individual that construct reality by reflecting
on his own experience and gives meaning to it. It is founded on the premise that by reflecting on our own

Most Frequently Asked Questions (MFAQ) in Legal Bases of Education and Their Possible
Answer(OR A Simplified Catechetic in Legal Bases of Education)
Question: This question is in connection with student arrest in the school premises.
the arresting officer taking the student under custody is a member of the military establishment
properly identified but without warrant of arrest, what would be the responsibility of the school if the
student injury is sustained within the campus?
Answer: The school authorities have no liability. The reason is that they could not fight the police or
military establishment. In this connection, the Supreme court gives the advice that when one is
picked up by the police officer, he should not argue with the policeman. He must argue in court.
Question: Is a parent’s signature permitting his child to join on outing or excursion or field trip
tantamount to a waiver? Suppose something happens to the students.
Answer: It is not a waiver. A parent just gives the permission to his child to join the outing or
excursion or field trip but not the permission to be injured.
Questions: Assuming that one can prove that he exercised proper diligence, what then is the
parameter for proper? When do we know it is proper not proper? What constitutes proper or not
proper? who will decide that?
Answer: According to the Supreme Court of the Philippines, you cannot show that the diligence
exercised was proper by calibrated degrees. Each case will have to depend on the circumstances
surroundings the event. It is found in the Latin quis, quid, quibos, qour, quomodo, quando. What is
proper diligence is one case may not be so in another circumstances because of the difference in
the attendant circumstances .There are no hard and fast rules that can possibly be given.
Question: Would the school authority be liable for any accident that happens to its students in the
school bus or because of traffic accidents to and from the school?
Answer: If the school bus belongs to the school, the school is liable. If it belongs to a private
company, then the concessionaire is the one that is liable.
Question: Suppose that in a student evaluation, a teacher is consistently graded in a manner of
leading to the conclusion that the teacher is inefficient; would this be ground for dismissing the
teacher:
Answer: If the testimony of the students is convincing, and with due process, yes.
Question: Suppose something happens to the students on the way from the school to the police
precinct , what is the school’s liability?
Answer: The school no liability. Nothing. The reason is that the student is now under police custody.
Question: It is said that most foolishness and conduct unbecoming of a student occur when the
teacher dismisses his class too early, let us say, twenty minutes after the time or fifteen minutes
before the time, Since every school head is after escaping liability, may he issue as an exercise of
diligence, a regulation that anything that may happen within the period when the teacher is
supposed to be in the classroom will be his liability and that the school head has nothing to do with
it?
Answer: If it was already known to the school authorities that a particular teacher or teachers are in
the habit of coming to class late or dismissing classes too early, the school has not done anything
about, then the school is still liable. The regulation should be a general rule such as an
announcement at the beginning of the school year or during faculty or teachers, meeting and that
violation of that rule will be ground for disciplinary action on the teacher. That teacher shall be
subject to administrative action.
Question: Suppose during a class a student leave without the teacher’s permission. Then, he meets
an accident outside the school campus. the question is: Is the teacher, and therefore the school
liable?
Answer: In such a case the age of the student will be the one to be the deciding factor. If the student
is a minor the law requires that the school post guards so that the students cannot go out during
class hours. If he is of age and he goes out of the school, the school is not liable. The school’s
negligence will be for failure to post guards for the security of the students who are considered
minors.
Question: how do you differentiate tenure from term of office?
Answer: The word tenure refers to the period of time during which the incumbent is in office where
the word term of office refers to the period of time during which the incumbent has the right to be in
office
Question: If an educational institution converts itself into a foundation and any of its employees or
teachers refuse to become part of the foundation, would the refusal be tantamount to separation?
Answer: In the words of the Supreme Court, transfer is not just physical severance but the fact of
being separated. Now, if a school employee or teacher refuses to be absorbed by the foundation, he
has thereby made his own decision. In the words of the Existentialist Philosopher Jean Paul Sartre,
a person who makes a decision is the moral one and the one who cannot make a decision is the
immoral one. Now, he has thereby made his own decision. He has laid off himself. In short, he has
dismissed himself!
Question: Suppose a school transfer location due to a government order on dispersal, is the refusal
of a teacher to join that school that transfer location be a ground for separation, and may the
Commission hold the school accountable?
Answer: Because the relocation of the school is mandated by the state, whoever refuses to join the
migration and complains to the Commission on accounts of his separation would have to convince
the NLRC that the school was acting in bad faith.
Question: why is it difficult to dismiss inefficient faculty members and yet comparatively easy for a
faculty member to walk out of his school with very little penalty?
Answer: The question has, of course, serious socio-economic and moral implications. The state has
to use its police power to counteract certain pressures in the free world economy. In a developing
country like the Philippines which has a labor excess economy, which means that here we have a
situation where the man runs after the jobs and not the job running after the man, the guidelines are
based on the philosophy that unemployed workers constitutes a social burden to the government
and such a situation should not be recommended to escalate. Moreover, the philosophy of
egalitarian must be used here where the State is guided by the motto: the greatest good for the
greatest number.”
Question: If a professor carries on an affair with a female student and the affair is carried on outside
the school, may the professor be charged with immorality? Or if an unmarried teacher should
become pregnant is this a case of immorality?
Answer: Moral standards are supposed to be universal. Such a situation should not be tolerated
whether the school is private or public.
Question: What is our law on tenure?
Answer: The explicit mandate of the 1987 Philippine Constitution enjoins the State to assure the
security of tenure of workers in employment. This constitutional provision abolishes the almost
absolute right of the employer under the Termination Pay Law (R. A 1987) to terminate at any time
the services of his employees even without just cause. (Department of Labor Staff Committee on
labor code)
Question: what statutory law implements the constitutional provision on tenure?
Answer: The statutory law that implements the constitutional provision on tenure is presidential
Decree 442, as amended, which took effect last may 1, 1974. Specifically its pertinent provision
provides that “In cases of employment without a definite period, the employer shall not terminate the
services of an employee except for a just cause or when authorized by this Title. (Article 269, Labor
Code)
Question: What is the effect of an unjust dismissal of an employee?
Answer: He shall be entitled to reinstatement without loss of seniority right and to his back wages
computed from the time his compensation which was withheld up to the time of his compensation
which was withheld up to the time of his actual reinstatement. (Article 269, Labor Code)
Question: What do you mean by dismissal for a just cause?
Answer: As a sufficient ground for dismissal, a just cause is a legal cause and not merely a cause,
which the appointing power, in the exercise of his discretion, deems sufficient. It is the statutory
prescription of the cause of termination of employment.
Question: What exactly do we mean by probationary period?
Answer: Under the Labor Code, the probationary period is actually the period needed to determine
fitness for the job. This period, due to lack of a better measurement, is deemed to be the period
needed to learn the job.
Question: What is the probationary period for employees covered by the Labor Code?
Answer: The general probationary period is actually six months. If the job is apprenticeable, the
probationary period is the apprenticeship period, which may range from less than six to more than
six months depending upon the nature of the job. The probationary employment of professors,
instructors, and teachers shall be subject to standards established by the Department of Education
and Culture (Policy Instruction No. 11). However, for those working in the DepEd now, there is no
more probationary period.
Question: what is liability, if any, or to what extent will heads of schools be liable for mass
demonstration similar to those in Thailand or in China?
Answer: Mass demonstrations are without sanction of the school activities. Therefore, the schools
are not liable.
Question: Suppose the demonstration is inside the school premises without permission of the school
authorities during class hours just like what happen to the University of Southern Mindanao way
back in 1983’s, what liabilities do the school officials have?
Answer: If the activity is in violation of school regulations and the school authorities had tried their
best to stop it, the school would not be liable. The school will be held liable if there was implied
consent.
Question: In case of an arrest of student during class hours. What is the liability of the school if it
refuses to surrender a student?
Answer: This is disobedience to lawful authority. The school is therefore held liable.
Question: Can a teacher who has to use force in a students’ fight be held liable if he accidentaly
hurts a student in trying to stop the fight?
Answer: No., because the teacher was acting in the performance of lawful duty. However, the forced
employed by the teacher must be commensurate with the danger involved.
Question; Is there direct assault if both offender and offended are persons in authority?
Answer: In a case where a superintendent boxed a fellow superintendent because of conflict of
jurisdiction, it was ruled that there was no assault.
Question: Is serious vandalism committed by an employee against the property of teachers in the
classroom considered as assault of person in authority?
Answer: The offense may be termed malicious mischief or destruction of property with evil motive,
etc..
Question: Is a student liable for direct assault upon a person in authority even if the act was
committed during recess time and not in actual performance of the teacher’s duties?
Answer: Yes, as long as it is by reason or no accession of the teacher’s duties. When we say on
occasion of the reason behind the assault was the performance of the teacher’s duties.
Question: If a student’s refusal to obey teacher in public provokes the teacher’s anger who loses his
temper and slaps the student or even manhandles him, should the school officials side with the
teacher or the student?
Answer: That situation is a plain case of the teacher taking the law into her own hands-the teacher
becomes the offender and the students, his victim. More importantly, the offense is even aggravated
by the teacher being a person in authority.
Question: When we refer to students assaulting persons in authority, do we refer only to student
currently enrolled or does this include students who have been granted honourable dismissal?
Answer: The law does not mention students only. It includes non students,parents, even strangers. If
a student was flunked by a professor there is direct assault on a person in authority
Question: In most barrios it is difficult to divorce the social functions of a teacher from the academic.
If a teacher attends a school social function and in refusing to dance with a man she gets slapped
direct assault on a person in authority?
Answer: It depends on the reason why the teacher was slapped.
Question: The teacher refused to danced with him because he smells liquor.
Answer: The teacher’s refusal to dance has nothing to do with the performance of a teacher’s duty
but for a private reason. If a teacher is in the performance of duty, no matter if the reason for the
assault has nothing to do with teacher (such as when a teacher is explaining a lesson and a creditor
comes and slaps her in front of the students) there is direct assault of person in authority. The
reason is immaterial if the assault is committed while the teacher is performing her duties.
Question: Would homosexual practices constitute just cause for separation?
Answer: The attending circumstances should be taken into account. In most state universities and
colleges as well as private.
