may be defined as relatively
permanent
changes
in
behavior
brought about by practice and
experience (Coon, 2001)
Learning
is the
biggest
part of the brain and the most
highly
developed
part of the human body. Its functions
involve
mental
processes
like thinking, perceiving,
producing and
understanding
language.
Cerebrum
is involved in
several
functions
associated with learning including: determining
intelligence, planning and organization, and processing
sensory
information.
Cerebral cortex
is responsible for the processing and storing
short-term
memory.
Hippocampus
is responsible for emotions, survival
instincts
and memory
Amygdala
Sensory
Apparatus:
•
Eyes
•
Nose
•
Ears
•

•

Kinesthetic
senses
is a type of learning that takes
place by associating or connecting a
stimulus
to a
response or a response to
reinforcement.
Associative Learning
any learning
process
in which a new response
becomes associated with a particular stimulus.
Classical
Conditioning by
Ivan Pavlov
a method of learning that occurs through
rewards
and
punishments
for behavior.
Operant Conditioning
by
B.F. Skinner
learning through
conscious
mental activities like thinking, understanding, and
remembering.
Cognitive Learning
Latent Learning by Edward Tolman
is the
acquisition
of
data
that is then
stored
in memory for
later use.
Observational Learning
by
Albert Bandura
is a
method
of learning that occurs by observing and
imitating
a model (Feldman, 2010).
There are four meditational processes proposed by Bandura:
Attention
:
Retention
Reproduction
Motivation
The extent to which we are
exposed
/
notice
the
behavior. For a behavior to be imitated, it has to grab our
attention.
Attention
We observe many behaviors on a
daily
basis, and
many of these are not
noteworthy.
Attention is therefore
extremely
important in whether a behavior
influences
others
imitating it.
Retention
How well the behavior is
remembered.
The
behavior may be
noticed
but is it not always
remembered
which obviously prevents imitation.
Retention
is important therefore
that a memory of the
behavior
is formed to be performed
later by the
observer.
This is the ability to
perform
the behavior
that the model has just demonstrated. We see much
behavior on a daily basis that we would like to be able
to imitate but that this not always
possible.
Reproduction
This influences our decisions whether to try and imitate it or
not.
Reproduction
Motivation
The will to perform the behavior. The rewards
and punishment that follow a behavior will be considered by
the observer.
