Understanding the foundation of learning theories.

This book offers a unique perspective on the development and design of effective learning environments. Through exploring the concept of Disciplinary Intuitions, the author argues that learners develop a tacit understanding of how the world 'works' through lived experiences, which are often shaped by the particular discipline in question. As such, effective curriculum design must go beyond addressing misconceptions and preconceptions, and instead seek to understand and build upon these underlying intuitions to promote enduring understanding from first principles. This book offers a valuable resource for educators and curriculum designers seeking to improve their understanding of how learners engage with different disciplines, and how to design effective learning environments accordingly.
