Transfer of Learning, Curve & Plateau
Asked 2 months ago · Viewed 2,263 times
Upon a rigorous analysis of the various types of learning curves—such as the convex curve, concave curve, S-shaped curve—as well as the plateau in learning and the principles of transfer of learning, which of the following statements is most authentic and true from a foundational and scientific perspective?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Learning curves illustrate progress in the learning process. The concave curve is also known as the positive acceleration curve, where the rate of learning is slow at the beginning of practice and becomes rapid thereafter.
Conversely, the convex curve demonstrates a negative acceleration curve, in which learning occurs at a rapid pace in the initial stages and subsequently experiences plateaus or deceleration.
Key Concepts:
- Concave Curve: Slow start, fast finish (Positive Acceleration).
- Convex Curve: Fast start, slow finish (Negative Acceleration).
