Driscoll (2000) defines learning as “a persisting change in human performance or
performance potential…[which] must come about as a result of the learner’s experience
and interaction with the world” (p.11). This definition encompasses many of the
attributes commonly associated with behaviorism, cognitivism, and constructivism –
namely, learning as a lasting changed state (emotional, mental, physiological (i.e.
skills)) brought about as a result of experiences and interactions with content or other
people.
