What is learning and features of Learning

What is learning?

Learning: (1) Change is permanent (2) change occurs because of experience

Learning may be defined as “any relatively permanent change in behaviour or behavioural potential produced by experience”.

Changes due to practice and experience, which are relatively permanent, are illustrative of learning.

What are the features of Learning?

(i) Learning always involves some kind of experience. For instance, a child gets lost at a place on leaving the hands of the parents, would learn not to leave the hand of elders the next time.

(ii) Behavioural changes that occur due to learning are relatively permanent and are different from temporary behavioural changes caused by habituation, drugs or fatigue. For example, feeling tired after studying is a temporary change and does not involve learning.

(iii) Learning is an inferred process that involves a series of psychological events. It is also different from a performance.

What are the paradigms of learning?

Learning takes place in many ways. The simplest kind of learning is called conditioning. There are two types of Conditioning.

The first one is called classical conditioning, and the second instrumental/operant conditioning. In addition, we have observational learning, cognitive learning, verbal learning, concept learning, and skill learning.
