Using Mayer's SOI Approach to Help Learners with ADHD Construct Knowledge
Shani Salifu (Concord University, USA)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-5225-0892-2.ch012
Abstract
The chapter examines Mayer's (1999) Selection, Organization, and Integration components of learning alongside requirements and processes needed to reach conclusions that learning has taken place. Data for the chapter was gathered through the review of appropriate literature, and reviewed to explore the established symptoms of learners diagnosed with ADHD. The review of literature looked at how the identified symptoms interfered with affected learners' classroom behavior, and subsequently with the ways in which they learn. The reviewed literature further explored various beliefs underlying Mayer's (1999) constructivist theory, and how the components outlined by Mayer (1999) can be adapted to facilitate learning among learners with ADHD. The chapter concludes by juxtaposing Mayer's (1999) design strategies with shortcomings that have been found to hinder learning in learners with ADHD. This juxtaposition results in strategies that could ensure that learning becomes possible among learners with ADHD.
