Discussion
Which of the following is/are not learning method ?
(a) Insight
(b) Observation
(c) Modelling
(d) Trial and error
Codes :
Answer: A
Every item is a recognised method of learning, so the answer is All are learning methods.
- Insight: Wolfgang Kohler's chimpanzees solved problems by suddenly seeing the relations among the parts.
- Observation and modelling: Albert Bandura's social learning theory shows that people learn by watching others and imitating them.
- Trial and error: Edward Thorndike's cats learned to escape puzzle boxes by repeated attempts, the basis of his law of effect.
The options declaring observation or modelling not to be learning methods contradict Bandura's well-established work, so they fall away.
