Abstract

A broad orientation to the principles and mechanisms underlying three major views of learning, namely, the behavioral perspective, the cognitive perspective, and the sociocultural perspective are presented. The focuses are on how these perspectives differ in their grounding assumptions and beliefs on how learning occurs and what constitutes the results or products of learning, as well as their impacts on research, practices, and educational policies.
