Insight learning is a type of learning or problem solving that happens all of a sudden through understanding the relationships of various parts of a problem rather than through trial and error.
Insight learning also involves the “I have found it!” feeling or “Eureka”.
Insight learning is also express as the “Aha Moment”.
Insight learning refers to the sudden realisation of a solution of a problem

2. Insight Learning?
• Insight learning is a type of learning or problem solving
that happens all of a sudden through understanding the
relationships of various parts of a problem rather than
through trial and error.
• Insight learning also involves the “I have found it!”
feeling or “Eureka”.
• Insight learning is also express as the “Aha Moment”.
• Insight learning refers to the sudden realisation of a
solution of a problem
3. Factors Influencing Insight
• Experience - Past experiences
help in the insightful solution
of the problems.
• A child cannot solve the
problems of Modern
Mathematics unless he is well
acquainted with its symbolic
language.
5. Learning Situation
• How insightfully the organism
will react depends upon the
situation in which he has to act.
• Some situations are more
favourable than the others for
insightful solution.
• As a common observation,
insight occurs when the learning
situation is so arranged that all
the necessary aspects are open for
observation.
6. Initial Efforts or Trial and Error
• Insightful learning has to
pass through the process
of trial and error.
• Whatever an activity may
be, attempts or efforts or
trials always lie at its
root.
• This opens the way for
insightful learning.
7. Repetition and Generalization
• After having an insightful
solution of a particular type
of problem, the organism tries
to repeat it in another
situation, demanding similar
type of solution.
• The way found in one
situation helps him to react
insightfully in the other
identical situations.
8. Trial and Error learning and Insight Learning
InsightLearning
• Higher mental processes like,
comprehension perception of
relationships analysis
generalization are involved.
• Sudden awareness or insight
after implicit trial and error.
• Insight is ‘sudden’ and
doesn’t need practice.
Trial and Error
• Just a process of habit
formation. No mental
processes are involved.
• Success is due to ‘chance’
after implicit trial and
error.
• Learning is gradual and
need practice.
9. cont.
• Acquisition, retention and
transfer of learning is
possible.
• Fit for learning scientific
involving creative thinking
understanding.
• Acquisition, retention and
transfer of learning is not
possible.
• Fit for learning motor
skills, language and
arithmetic skills.
10. Principles Involved in Insightful Learning
Law of figure ground,
Law of inquisitive
Law of continuity
Law of similarity
Law of proximity
11. Educational Implications
A Facilitator of learning;
• Person who help the student-teacher
• Teacher who provides suitable learning
environment.
• Don’t use lecture method by compulsion
Independent study
Learning is nothing but the action that only
done by the students. So makes the students to
motivate them to. Learn by ”learning by doing”
12. cont.
Problem Solving
• Teachers make students to find solution for a problem by
making “ learning task” for the student.
• Teacher should motivate the discovery learning.
Inductive Reasoning
• Don’t tell the laws directly to the students. Teacher may
say some laws for examples.
• Learning should be done by the students themselves to say
the laws.
13. Cont.…
Whole Experiences
• Students themselves have to learn or if students
learn by finding/searching the important factor
is external environment.
