Transfer of Learning - PPT Final

The document discusses several learning theories: behaviorism, social cognitive theory, information processing theory, and constructivism. Behaviorism focuses on punishment and rewards through operant conditioning. Social cognitive theory explains learning through observing others and includes the environment, behavior, and psychological processes. Information processing theory looks at how sensory memory, working memory, and long-term memory aid learning. Constructivism examines how human experiences interact with behavior and is based on observation and scientific study. The document also addresses transfer of learning and examples of applying learning theories in the workplace.
