Theories of learning case study
In the case study I read, Roger is a 73 year old man contemplating on what he has accomplished in his life. After reading the whole case study, I think Roger had a fairly normal growing experience. Incorporating Erikson's Psychosocial Stages, the 4th stage which is Industry vs. Inferiority, talks about mastering social skills and academic years. Roger at first was not a popular student, but he was academically good. He shared that him being quite chubby made him not into sports unlike other kids who were mainly focused with other physical activities. In the 5th stage which is Identity vs. Role Confusion, Roger had his pre-puberty spurt ahead of other boys. This made him looked slimmer and enabled him to join sports. With his advanced growth, he became popular because he was able to join the activities with other boys. So in this stage, he was able to cope up well because he felt that he belonged with the other group of boys since he was into sports already. His social skills improved a lot too and that helped him a lot dealing with other kids in the school. In the 6th stage which is Intimacy vs. Isolation, being able to form strong relationship with others is the theme here. During Roger's college years, he met a girl named A
With Roger coming from Jewish background but living in a predominantly Christian area, he had some difficulties looking for a girl who's going to accept his background. In Roger's case, he sees himself to be good in reading and writing so he graduated with a Ph. And with Jackie accepting all of this, helped them to have a harmonious relationship. Overall, Rogers's case is interesting. It took him another 6 years to form another strong relationship. But other than teaching, he believed that by writing science fiction novels, this would enhance more his writing abilities. The theory rejects the existing schism between affect, cognition, and action and recommends that they be construed together for developing a fuller understanding of human behavior. Just like what I mentioned above, Roger disregarded his colleagues' discouragement to writing. But note that, for all that it may offend our modern standards of equality, this is the way people lived for thousands of years. His works got published and earned respect from other colleagues.
