The 1974 AVCR Young Scholar Paper: An Open-System Model of Learning

Winn, William

AV Communication Review, 23, 1, 5-33, Spr 75

Rejecting the cybernetic model of the learner, the author offers an open-system model based on von Bertalanffy's equation for growth of the living organism. The model produces four learning curves, not just the logarithmic curve produced by the successive approximations of the cybernetic model. (Editor)
