Learning theories focus on how people learn and what teaching involves. Behaviorism views learning as replicating behaviors through cues, while cognitivism sees it as organizing and recalling knowledge. Constructivism understands learning as creating meaning and knowledge through forming connections between ideas. The video will discuss learners' motivations for courses as either a need, want, passion or natural ability and explore Howard Gardner's ideas of how people best learn.
