What type of learning is associated with changes in behavior as a result of experiences?

  1. Constructive learning

  2. Discovery learning

  3. Experiential learning

  4. Observational learning

The correct answer is: Observational learning

This type of learning is typically associated with a learner observing a model and imitating their behavior. Option A, constructive learning, involves actively building knowledge by connecting new information to prior knowledge. Option B, discovery learning, involves exploring and making personal discoveries that lead to understanding. Option C, experiential learning, is similar to observational learning in that it also involves learning from experiences, but it typically refers to hands-on learning rather than observing others. Therefore, option D, observational learning, is the most closely associated with changes in behavior as a result of experiences.
