Development and Application of Social Learning Theory
Abstract
Social learning theory is the most mentioned theory in understanding people’s learning process. This theory mainly explains the learning process of individuals in a social environment. In a social environment, individuals can learn through imitation, observation, and modeling. Social learning methods take the thinking process into account and provide a more comprehensive explanation of human learning through understanding and observing the role of the learning process.References
