The term ‘gestalt’ means a whole, a total composition. According to this theory, an individual learns an object as a whole, a single entity, not in parts or bits. In other words, an individual’s understanding of an object comprehends the whole object, not merely parts or bits of the object.

In 1956, The American Educational Psychologist Robert M. Gagne proposed a System of classifying different types of  learning  in terms of the degree of Complexity of the mental Process Involved. Gagne identified eight basic types and arranged them in the hierarchy. According to Him, The Higher-order learning in this hierarchy builds upon the lower levels, requiring progressively greater amounts of previous learning for their success. The lowest four orders tend to focus on the more behavioural aspects of learning while the highest four focus on the more cognitive aspects. The most complete description of Gagne’s classes of behaviour appears in his ‘The conditions of Learning. In this theory, Gagne distinguishes eight types of learning beginning with the simple forms and ending with the complex. What Are Gagne Conditions of Learning? Learning according to Gagne is- Learning is cumulative. Human intellectual development is the building of increasingly complex structures of Human...
