A Review of Process of Perception in Organizational Behavior
Keywords:
Interpretation, Educational Practitioners, Influencing, Perceptual ProcessAbstract
Differences in perception are central to both the practice and research in education. It is thus necessary for educational practitioners to understand the reason for differences in perception in order to practice and do authentic research. It is therefore the aim of this article to touch on the complex nature of the perceptual process and influencing factors as well as provide three examples of educational phenomena in order to highlight differences in interpretation.
