What is Learning?
A change in behavior as a result of an experience
How do we learn?
PIM
- Perceptions ( info from 1 of your 5 senses sent to the brain)
- Insight (turning perceptions to a meaningful whole)
- Motivation (positive = high performance, negative=slumps)
What are the different types of learning or practice?
DBR
- Deliberate (specific areas for improvement)
- Blocked (a bit more general areas for improvement)

What are the characteristics of learning?
PEAM
- Purposeful (students learn when they have a clear purposeful good) - Experience (students learn through individual experiences)

- Multifaceted (verbal, conceptual, emotional, problem solving)
What are the laws of learning?
REEPIR
- Readiness (learner is satisfied before learning)
- Effect (learning is enhanced by posit. experience)
- Exercise (must practice the learned info to keep it)
- Primacy (first learned is best learned)
- Intensity (exciting learning is better retrained)
- Recency (most recently learned info is best remembered)
Why do we forget things?
RRIDS
- Repression (subconciously bury negative thoughts)
- Retrieval Failure (unable to recall/ remember info)
- Interference (new experience overshadows prior experience)
- Disuse (we forget things that arent used)
- Suppression (concious form of repression)
