ANSWER 

General Characteristics of Learning

The following are the general characteristics of learning:

(1)  Learning is Adjustment:

 Learning involves adjustment of the individual to his environment. The individual must learn to adjust himself to the changes that take place around him.

2)  Learning is Growth:

 Learning must result in the growth of the child. An immature child is developed into a mature person through the process of learning.

(3)  Learning is Organizing Experience:

 Learning is not like adding one experience to the other it is instead, organizing the new experience with the old ones, thus giving rise to a new form of behavior. Thus, learning involves the proper organizing of experiences in a manner.

(4)  Learning is Purposeful:

The more intense the purpose of the individual, the more rapid the learning. A lack of purpose in learning will hamper learning. Thus, purposeful learning is always more rapid and permanent.

(5)  Learning is Active.

  Better learning will only occur if the learner is actively engaged in the learning process. Thus, the active participation of the pupils is essential in the learning process.

(6)  Learning is intelligent and Creative:

 Learning involves an intelligent interpretation of the situation and some selectivity in the response. This necessarily involves intelligent and creative thinking.

(7)  Learning Affects the Conduct of Learners:

Learning affects individuals to adjust themselves to the environment. This is brought about through some sort of change and modification of one’s behavior. Thus the behavior or conduct of the individual undergoes change on account of learning.

(8)  Learning is the Product of the Environment:

 Learning is essentially an adaptation and adjustment to the environment. Thus, the environment greatly influences learning; learning cannot be divorced from the environment.
