The document defines learning as a relatively permanent change in behavior through practice or experience. It discusses several theories of learning including classical conditioning which associates a stimulus that does not elicit a response with one that does, operant conditioning where behavior is associated with its consequences through reinforcement or punishment, identity taking which involves incorporating meanings and expectations of one's role into their self-concept, modeling which asserts people learn through observing and imitating models, and problem solving as the process an organism uses to get from its current state to a desired state.

result of practice or experience. Basic Propositions: a. People are responders; the environment controls behavior. b. Children learn in a social context by observing and imitating models. c. Children are active contributors to learning. CLASSICAL CONDITIONING LEARNING BASED ON ASSOCIATING A STIMULUS THAT DOES NOT ORDINARILY ELICIT A RESPONSE WITH ANOTHER STIMULUS THAT DOES ELICIT THE RESPONSE. Conditioned Unconditioned stimulus stimulus OPERANT CONDITIONING LEARNING BASED ON ASSOCIATION OF BEHAVIOR WITH ITS CONSEQUENCES Reinforcement VS Punishment IDENTITY TAKING THE CORE OF AN IDENTITY IS THE CATEGORIZATION OF THE SELF AS AN OCCUPANT OF A ROLE, AND INCORPORATING, INTO THE SELF, THE MEANINGS AND EXPECTATIONS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ROLE AND ITS PERFORMANCE MULTIPLE IDENTITIES MODELING AFTER OBSERVATIONAL LEARNING OR MODELING ASSERTS THAT PEOPLE LEARN APPROPRIATE SOCIAL BEHAVIOR CHIEFLY BY OBSERVING AND IMITATING MODELS, IN OTHER WORDS, BY WATCHING THE PEOPLE AROUND THEM. PROBLEM SOLVING IT IS THE PROCESS THAT AN ORGANISM IMPLEMENTS IN ORDER TO TRY TO GET FROM THE CURRENT STATE TO THE DESIRED STATE
