Question ID: 361787
Need to take LEARNING THEORY online ASAP. Please provide webpage links
where I can read the course introduction, make the payment ? etc.
    Equivalent courses with similar syllabus but with different
titles will do.
    Coursework should be at the upper division undergraduate level.   
    Accreditation/recognition is important. It doesn't matter
whether it is in the U.S.

    Course content for coursework needed for entry is as follows

    LEARNING THEORY: Broad theoretical coverage of such learning
    theories as classical and operant conditioning, Gestalt,
    functionalism, mathematical learning theory, information theory,
    technology of instruction. Theorists include Pavlov, Thorndike,
    Guthrie, Hull, Tolman, and Skinner. Should not be limited to a
    single theory or theorist.

    If you wonder why online and not (for example) in correspondence,
it is because I need to get this course done ASAP. Therefore being
able to do it in my pace is important. I wanted to take them online
because I thought it would be faster to send assignments or requests
and get feedbacks. However, if any correspondence courses fit my
needs, I'd take them into consideration as well.

    An easier course is preferred since I'm really under time
pressure. Thanks a lot!

Hello aprilmoon-ga,

I?ve found two courses that seem to meet all your specifications for
an upper division online class in Learning Theories. They both allow
for open enrollment and working at your own pace. Both institutions
are accredited and the units earned should be transferable to other
institutions.

I found that there were a lot more courses that present learning
theories in the context of teacher education and instructional design.
I excluded these from consideration since they seemed more specialized
than what you were looking for.

I hope that these courses will help you complete your course
requirements quickly and easily.

Wishing you success for your education and career.

1. When and how do I register for an Independent Study in Idaho (ISI) course?
Register at any time. Independent Study in Idaho has open registration
and does not follow an academic calendar. There are five ways to
register (see Steps to Register):

2. Can I just register or do I have to be admitted to a college or university?
Enrollment is open to students and non-students, and state residency
is not required. Taking a course from ISI does not mean that you have
been admitted to a college or university within the ISI consortium for
on-campus study.

5. How much time do I have to complete an ISI course?
You should allow a minimum of three to four months, but you have one
full year from the registration date to complete a course. Allow time
for mailing, grading, and returning lessons and exams. Instructors are
allowed 10 business days to grade and return materials.
