   %LEARN CHANGE RESPONSE STUDENT TEACHER PROFESSOR 890105

     Learning  involves  personal change.    The  insecure
person  finds it difficult to change;  and so the insecure
person  finds it difficult to learn.  The person with  low
self  esteem  is insecure and finds it difficult to  learn
from  their  mistakes,   repeats  the  mistakes,   and  so
maintains   the   low  self  esteem  and  high  sense   of
insecurity.

     What people learn depends much on how they respond to
other  people's behaviors and communications.  People  are
not   taught  merely  by  other  people's  behaviors   and
communications.  People are taught by their own  responses
to other people's behaviors and communications.   Learning
depends upon responses. Teaching does not produce learning
apart from the responses of the students who are taught.

     Teachers  cannot control students'  responses and  so
teachers cannot control students' learning processes.

     What  students learn does depend much on the behavior
and  communications of their teachers.  Some instructional
behaviors  are  bound to decrease students'  self  esteem,
increase  their  insecurity,  make it more  difficult  for
students to change,  and so undermine students'  learning.
Students  cannot  always control how they respond to  such
disintegrative behavior on the part of their teachers  and
professors.

     Students cannot control their teachers' behaviors and
so students cannot control their own learning processes.

     Neither  students nor teachers can be in full control
of the learning process.

     Integrative learning is the fruit of cooperative work
involving both students and teachers. Integrative learning
does  not  flow  from  anybody being  in  control  of  the
learning process.
