Ways of learning


Learning by trial and error

This is stimulus - response theory of learning , Reaction and action where the beginning reaction is due to stimulus. When the result is correct or satisfying then the response will be repeated.When the reaction is wrong or negative then it will not be repeated. Learning will take place in both instance.

This type of learning is oftentimes risky and time consuming because the next step will only follow depending on the result.

Making several error would be very expensive in time , effort and money. However , trial and error is the easiest way of doing things without necessarily anticipating a definite objective
