Definition 1 of 90
Information-processing theory suggests that human cognition can be understood as a series
of mental processes that involve encoding, storage, retrieval, and manipulation of information.
Sociocultural theory emphasizes the importance of social and cultural factors in shaping
human development and behavior, including the role of language, communication, and social
interaction in learning and cognition.
Ecological theory proposes that human development is shaped by the interactions between
individuals and their physical, social, and cultural environments, and emphasizes the
importance of understanding these interactions in order to promote positive outcomes.
These theories offer different perspectives on how humans learn, think, and develop, and can
inform our understanding of educational practices, social policies, and interventions to
support human development across different contexts and populations.
