  2. Learning theory (education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_theory_(education)

    Learning theory describes how students receive, process, and retain knowledge during learning. Cognitive, emotional, and environmental influences, as well as prior experience, all play a part in how understanding, or a worldview, is acquired or changed and knowledge and skills retained.

  3. Learning circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_circle

    OpenAgile is an agile system of project and team management.In the OpenAgile system, the learning circle "is a simple and practical model of effective learning". [5] The learning circle was adapted by Garry Bertieg from a development model in the "Building Momentum" document issued by the BaháΚΌí World Centre around 2003. [6]

  4. Learning cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_cycle

    Kolb integrated this learning cycle with a theory of learning styles, wherein each style prefers two of the four parts of the cycle. The cycle is quadrisected by a horizontal and vertical axis. The vertical axis represents how knowledge can be grasped, through concrete experience or through abstract conceptualization , or by a combination of both.

  5. Circle group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_group

    One can say even more. The circle is a 1-dimensional real manifold, and multiplication and inversion are real-analytic maps on the circle. This gives the circle group the structure of a one-parameter group, an instance of a Lie group. In fact, up to isomorphism, it is the unique 1-dimensional compact, connected Lie group.

  6. Circular symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_symmetry

    In geometry, circular symmetry is a type of continuous symmetry for a planar object that can be rotated by any arbitrary angle and map onto itself. Rotational circular symmetry is isomorphic with the circle group in the complex plane , or the special orthogonal group SO(2), and unitary group U(1).

  7. Van Hiele model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Hiele_model

    Children simply say, "That is a circle," usually without further description. Children identify prototypes of basic geometrical figures (triangle, circle, square). These visual prototypes are then used to identify other shapes. A shape is a circle because it looks like a sun; a shape is a rectangle because it looks like a door or a box; and so on.

  8. Symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry

    This article describes symmetry from three perspectives: in mathematics, including geometry, the most familiar type of symmetry for many people; in science and nature; and in the arts, covering architecture, art, and music. The opposite of symmetry is asymmetry, which refers to the absence of symmetry.

  9. Gestalt psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestalt_psychology

    Law of symmetry. The law of symmetry states that the mind perceives objects as being symmetrical and forming around a center point. It is perceptually pleasing to divide objects into an even number of symmetrical parts. Therefore, when two symmetrical elements are unconnected the mind perceptually connects them to form a coherent shape.
