2. WHAT IS LEARNING?
Learning is the one of the important psychological
process to determine the human behavior.
learning is the process of accumulation of
knowledge, skills and attitudes. (KSA)
Learning may be through training, experience,
reading, observation, discussions, electronic
media including internet, experimentation, facing
the new challenges, travel and exploration etc.
hence training and development is more tools for
learning.
Learning is not a one time activity or an annual,
half yearly, quarterly or monthly activity.
3. Learning is a continues process
Learning is also an important source of motivation,
Stimulation and job satisfaction
Meaning of Learning
Learning is simply means that permanent change in
behavior through education, training, practice and
experience
4. DIFFERENCE B/W TRAINING, DEVELOPMENT,
EDUCATION AND LEARNING
Training
Training is concerned with the teaching of specific,
factual, narrow scoped subject matter and skills. It is a
formal classroom learning activities.
Development
Development is concerned with a broader subject
matter of a conceptual or theoretical nature and the
development of personal attitudes.
It comprises all learning experiences, both on and off
the job, including formal, classroom training.
5. Education
Education, primarily, involves the presentation of
material by the faculty to students who are learning
about the subject matter.
The material being studied is fundamentally well known
material. Those activities known as teaching and
training are included in this category.
Learning
Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge or skill
through study, experience or teaching.
It is a process that depends on experience and leads to
long-term changes in behavior potential. Behavior
potential describes the possible behavior of an
individual in a given situation in order to achieve a goal.
6. GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING
Readiness
Readiness implies a degree of concentration and
eagerness.
Individuals learn best when they are physically,
mentally, and emotionally ready to learn, and do not
learn well if they see no reason for learning.
Getting students ready to learn, creating interest by
showing the value of the subject matter, and providing
continuous mental or physical challenge, is usually the
instructor’s responsibility.
7. The principle of exercise
The principle of exercise states that those things most
often repeated are best remembered.
It is the basis of drill and practice.
It has been proven that students learn best and retain
information longer when they have meaningful practice
and repetition.
The key here is that the practice must be meaningful.
It is clear that practice leads to improvement only when
it is followed by positive feedback.
8. The principle of effect
The principle of effect is based on the
emotional reaction of the student.
It has a direct relationship to motivation.
The principle of effect is that learning is
strengthened when accompanied by a
pleasant or satisfying feeling, and that
learning is weakened when associated
with an unpleasant feeling. , every
learning experience should contain
elements that leave the student with
some good feelings.
9. PRIMACY
The state of being first, often creates a strong, almost
unshakable, impression.
Things learned first create a strong impression in the
mind that is difficult to erase.
For the instructor, this means that what is taught must
be right the first time. for example, a student learns a
faulty technique, the instructor will have a difficult task
correcting bad habits and “re teaching” correct ones.
The student's first experience should be positive,
functional, and lay the foundation for all that is to follow.
What the student learns must be procedurally correct
and applied the very first time.
10. RECENCY
The principle of recency states that things most
recently learned are best remembered.
Conversely, the further a student is removed time-wise
from a new fact or understanding, the more difficult it is
to remember. For example, it is fairly easy to recall a
telephone number dialed a few minutes ago, but it is
usually impossible to recall a new number dialed last
week.
11. INTENSITY
The principle of intensity implies that a student will learn
more from the real thing than from a substitute. For
example, a student can get more understanding and
appreciation of a movie by watching it than by reading
the script.
Likewise, a student is likely to gain greater
understanding of tasks by performing them rather than
merely reading about them.
12. REQUIREMENT
The law of requirement states that "we must have
something to obtain or do something.“
It can be ability, skill, instrument or anything that may
help us to learn or gain something.
A starting point or root is needed; for example, if you
want to draw a person, you need to have the materials
with which to draw, and you must know how to draw a
point, a line, and a figure and so on until you reach your
goal, which is to draw a person.
13. FREEDOM
The principle of freedom states that things freely
learned are best learned. Conversely, the further a
student is coerced, the more difficult is for him to learn,
assimilate and implement what is learned.
Compulsion and coercion are antithetical (opposing) to
personal growth. The greater the freedom enjoyed by
individuals within a society, the greater the intellectual
and moral advancement enjoyed by society as a whole.
If no freedom is granted, students may have little
interest in learning.
14. Since learning is an active process, students must have
freedom: freedom of choice, freedom of action,
freedom to bear the results of action—these are the
three great freedoms that constitute personal
responsibility.
