Phan Psicología Learning epistemology sociocultural contexts Pacific Context learning approaches This theoretical article discusses the importance of learning approaches in sociocultural contexts. Our discussion synthesizes previous empirical research studies, taking into consideration the importance of individuals" cultural background and environmental settings. Research studies by Marton and Saljo (1976) and others (Biggs, 1987; Watkins & Regmi, 1990) have provided a strong theoretical foundation concerning the approaches to learning that individuals adopt in their learning. More recently, a number of theorists have attempted to situate students" approaches to learning in contexts (Mugler & Landbeck, 1997). This argument arises from the understanding that approaches to learning are embedded and, more importantly, they relate to personal epistemology. In our discussion, we use the Pacific as an example to explain how the sociocultural milieu and individuals" historical backgrounds shape and influence their learning approaches 2010 artículo científico 1696-2095 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=293121995019 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2931 Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology application/pdf Universidad de Almería Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology (España) Num.1 Vol.8
