Acquisition Metaphor

Participatory Metaphor

Acquisition Metaphor
Human mind is like a container which is filled with certain materials and learner become ownership of these materials.

The person himself sound in knowledge but cannot or does not shares with other members of the society.
They considered there is a clear end point to the process of learning.

Participatory Metaphor
The learner participate in different types of activities with association and dissociation get knowledge and share the information. The learner is active and always in search of knowledge in society. The learner is an integral part of the society because he/she participate and share ideas for betterment of the society

My Reflection on Learning Metaphors

The purpose of learning is for development and betterment of society, if a person get knowledge himself and cannot utilize the knowledge for progressive way for development of the society than the learning is meaningless and the teacher is transmitter of knowledge. On the other hand an individual of society interact with other members get knowledge and share his ideas with the society than the individual disseminate the light of knowledge among the members of the society for changing the environment towards straight way for further expansion of knowledge by association and dissociation of information.
