Learning
is the acquisition and development of memories and behaviors,
including skills, knowledge, understanding, values, and wisdom.
It is the product of experience and the goal of education.
Learning ranges from simple forms of learning such as habituation
and classical conditioning seen in many animal species, to more
complex activities such as play, seen only in relatively
intelligent animals.
"Thought,"
in a general sense, is commonly conceived as something arising
from the stimulation of neurons in the brain. Current
understanding of neurons and the central nervous system implies
that the process of learning corresponds to changes in the
relationship between certain neurons in the brain. Research is
ongoing in this area.
It
is generally recognized that memory is more easily retained when
multiple parts of the brain are stimulated, such as through
combinations of hearing, seeing, smelling, motor skills, touch
sense, and logical thinking.
Repeating
thoughts and actions is an essential part of learning. Thinking
about a specific memory will make it easy to recall. This is the
reason why reviews are such an integral part of education. On
first performing a task, it is difficult as there is no path from
axon to dendrite. After several repetitions a pathway begins to
form and the task becomes easier. When the task becomes so easy
that you can perform it at any time, the pathway is fully formed.
The speed at which a pathway is formed depends on the individual,
but is usually localized resulting in talents.
