Cognitive Learning Theory From The Perspective Of Ecology Research

Based on the ecology, ecological philosophy and informatics, this paper researches on cognitive theory of learning and effects of education ecosystem to the learners' cognitive in the school education.The ecology views in cognitive learning theory are very extensive.For example, the ecology and ecological philosophy viewpoints to different degrees infiltrate into many cognitive learning theories,such as Gestalt theory of Gestalt psychology, cognition-purpose works of Tolman, cognitive theory of Piaget, cognitive structure theory of Bruna, meaningful learning theory of Ausubel and information processing learning theory of Gagne, which sets up a theoretical basis for the exploration of cognitive learning theory on ecological horizon.Each learner is a member of the social family and is unable to exist independently who gets rid of the social environment. Therefore, the school education can really fulfill its task of the each learner's individual socialization in this big social background. As a discipline, the unique cognitive ecology is formed by the mutual infiltration and combination of ecology, informatics, behavioral ecology and cognitive psychology,which is consistent with this concept. Cognitive ecological system is an important part of the cognitive ecology and the cognitive ecology structure,which study the interaction and mutual influence between learner's cognitive and various environmental factors on the view of the system, information and cybernetics.So it is meaningful to study learners'cognitive learning rule from the perspective of cognitive ecological system.Cognitive ecological system consists of information resource, information lodge, information channel and information environment. Learners'learning, namely the flow process information from information resource to information lodge,which will is affected by many kinds of factors from family, society, school and individual own. All the factors that influence learners collectively are known as environmental factor in the development of learners'cognitive ecological system. Various factors determine the direction and result of the learners'cognitive ecosystem development.Therefore, on the view of ecology, the research of cognitive learning theory and exploration of various environmental factors from family, society, schools and individual contain cognitive ecosystem have very important directive significance to the development of the education teaching.However, the environmental factor from society and family is difficult to be controlled by teachers. The teacher can easily grasp the various environmental factors from school,which affect the learners'cognitive ecosystem development. So the research of environmental factor mainly concentrates on various environmental factors on the scenarios of school which affects the learners'cognitive ecosystem.Mainly utilizing the research methods of literature, education theory and education experience,the structure of cognitive ecological system and various environment factors affecting information access are expounded in this paper.Finally, taking high school geography teaching as an example, the author ecxplains the feasibility, principles and methods so as to express the necessity of the research.
