摘要:Educators work hard to offer new learning opportunities on subjects they teach, especially with the advancement of new technologies. Depending on the target group of learners, the subject and the circumstances, different learning theories may be applied to different teaching subjects.This study investigates the effects of the different learning theories when applied on various subjects in a computer-based environment. The research question concerns how the different learning theories affect students and their learning outcomes. The results revealed a difference by implying that not only the learning theory and the teaching practices but also the content, the structure and the nature of the course together with the social interactions play an important role on how people learn and develop their skills.
