Cognitive learning

joatkine

Cognitive learning involves deliberate evaluation of the environment to reflectively acquire a skilled behaviour. It uses the relationship between multiple cues in the environment to build a cognitive map. 


This type of learning is flexible, but requires more cognitive resources because it uses complex strategies to build an internal model of the environment that allows planning of future actions.



Example of cognitive learning:

When a child first learns to ride a bicycle, they must pay close attention to their bodies and coordinate their foot and arm movements to stay balanced. The bikers must consciously adjust their body balancing strategies as the road condition changes or as they approach a turn to prevent them from falling.
