Charactiristics of Learning



 During the discussion of this topic I learned that learning is fundamental, interactive and developmental and it is not just us who are growing and developing our learning is also developing by using it.
                I also learned the different factors of learning and one of it is feedback or knowledge of result and this is important because through feedback we are able to enhance our knowledge and it also serves as reinforcement.
                I also learned that there are several ways to improve our studying techniques and make it more efficient for learning that we must firstly be motivated to study our lessons and make it as a practice and in studying it would be more easier for us to understand our lessons if we will study it part by part and it is important for us to adopt this ways to learn more achieve higher grades

Meaningful Learning Theory


               


                 From this topic I learned that we are relating our newly acquired learning to what we already know to make it meaningful for us, I learned that there are concepts related to meaningful learning and this concepts are helping us to develop more our learning ability specially on relating prior knowledge to newly acquired knowledge.
                I also learn from this topic the different conditions of learning and one of this is Motivation and it is the condition that influences the behavior and gives direction to conditions of learner, that every person has different kinds of needs regarding motivation it can be physically or psychologically.  
                There are also cause of forgetting and one of the most common cause that I know is the disuse because it is very particular with the students, we students never use the learnings we acquire in school that is why we forget it.
                We need to always put in our minds that learning is not just a mere acquisition of knowledge but it also includes remembering and applying the learning we acquire so that it will always retain in our minds.
