Founder of cognitive research center
Bruner is the founder of Cognitive Research Center, and his research results have made important contributions to the development of cognitive psychology.
The core elements of "educational process"
The Process of Education is one of Bruner's representative works, in which the core elements of education are discussed in simple terms. He made an in-depth analysis of learning from four angles: the importance of structure, preparation for learning, intuitive thinking and analytical thinking, and learning motivation.
The importance of learning motivation
Bruner put forward a thought-provoking point: "The best motivation for learning comes from a strong interest in what you have learned, rather than external factors such as grades or future competitive advantages. He emphasized that external motivation should be transformed into internal motivation as much as possible, rather than relying too much on external incentives. This view has brought a new thinking direction to the research of educational psychology and provided valuable enlightenment to countless educators and learners.
