Learning

1. Definition of Learning in Education
   We know that the human brain is immensely complex and still somewhat of a mystery.
   It follows then, that we understand learning—a primary function of the brain—in many
   different ways. If you are searching for a definition of learning, these ten explanations
   show the multitude of ways that learning can be understood and described.


2. Some Definitions


3. “A change in human disposition or capability that persists over a period of time and
   is not simply ascribable to processes of growth.”
   — From The Conditions of Learning by Robert Gagne


4. “Learning is the relatively permanent change in a person’s knowledge or behavior
   due to experience. This definition has three components: 1) the duration of the
   change is long-term rather than short-term; 2) the locus of the change is the content
   and structure of knowledge in memory or the behavior of the learner; 3) the cause
   of the change is the learner’s experience in the environment rather than fatigue,
   motivation, drugs, physical condition or physiologic intervention.”
   –From Learning in Encyclopedia of Educational Research, Richard E. Mayer


5. “We define learning as the transformative process of taking in information that—
   when internalized and mixed with what we have experienced—changes what we
   know and builds on what we do. It’s based on input, process, and reflection. It is
   what changes us.”
   –From The New Social Learning by Tony Bingham and Marcia Conner
