What is the relevance of having knowledge of the different technology related learning theories ?

The three main learning theories that are commonly used in learning in the creation of instructional environments are behaviourism, cognitivism and constructivism.  These are relevant to understanding how children learn. When these theorists are incorporated into the classroom the use of technology helps to enhance the process of learning.  It is crucial to understand how children learn as these foundational principles have been altered.  Theorist from ancient times did not have technology to aid them in the learning process. In our modern society things and times has changed into a genre of computer and having knowledge of these theorist will improve the way in which a teacher teach or bring across a lesson aided by technology integration.  not everyone learn the same so the teacher must have an idea of all the theories so they will know how to plan and execute their lessons
