Spanish term or phrase: cognoscitivismo
Me aparece este termino como uno de los tres modelos sobre los que giran las estrategias de aprendizaje. Va acompañado de conductismo y constructivismo.

Encontré "cognoscitivism" en google, pero aparece muy pocas veces, por lo que no se si está errado el término o es relativamente nuevo.

Quiero confirmar el uso de este término o pedir el correcto.

muchas gracias desde ya

Reference information:
Cognitive Learning Theory
History of and assumptions of cognitivism:

from notes on Ormond's Human Learning
[ref: Ormrod, J.E. (1999). Human learning (3rd ed.). Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice-Hall.]
Since the 1960's cognitivism has provided the predominant perspective within which Learning Research has been conducted and theories of learning have evolved.

HISTORY AND ASSUMPTIONS OF COGNITIVISM:

Edward Tolman proposed a theory that had a cognitive flair. He was a behaviorist but valued internal mental phenomena in his explanations of how learning occurs.
Some of his central ideas were:

Behavior should be studied at a local level.

Learning can occur without reinforcement.

Learning can occur without a change in behavior.

Intervening variables must be considered.

Behavior is purposive.

Expectations of fact behavior.

Learning results in an organized body of information.
Based on his research of rats, Tolman proposed that rats and other organisms develop cognitive maps of their environments. They learn where different parts of the environment are situated in relation to one another. The concept of a cognitive map also called a mental map has continued to be a focus of research.

COGNITIVISM

Cognitivism was officially recognized around 1956. It defined learning as an internal, active, creative process. It emphasizes the critical role that memory plays in helping us translate new information into a form that is meaningful and will allow us to retrieve it and be able to use it. Memory involves three processes: attention, encoding and retrieval. Wilhelm Wundt is considered the father of cognitive psychology.
