Towards a Contemporary and Comprehensive Theory of Learning.
Illeris, Knud
International Journal of Lifelong Education, v22 n4 p396-406 Jul-Aug 2003
An overarching learning theory is presented, based on assumptions that all learning includes (1) external learner-environment interaction and internal acquisition and elaboration and (2) cognitive, emotional, and social dimensions. The framework depicts four types of learning: cumulative, assimilative, accommodative, and transformative. (Contains 17 references.) (SK)
