FOUR TYPES OF LEARNING: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL ANALYSIS,

Abstract

In this paper learning is treated at a relatively low level of abstraction. The learning processes are abstracted from the phenomenal given, leaving open the more basic question of whether there is a unique process underlying all learning phenomena or not. A learning process found in the developing child, called maturational learning, is distinguished from the learning process found in an adult. In addition, three learning processes common to children and adults are considered: (1) learning to do things, (2) accquiring knowledge, and (3) learning to get along with people or in groups.
