There are five factors that contribute to learning the learning, usefulness of materials, the number of sense involved and the last was feedback or knowledge of results. In this topic we all know that learning is distinguished from behavioral changes arising from such processes as maturation and illness, but does apply to motor skills, such as driving a car, to intellectual skills, such as reading, and to attitudes and values, such as prejudice.
