Chapter 6: Learning, How nature changes us

Learning is a change in an organism's behavior or thought as a result of experience. Habituation, a process of responding less strongly over time to repeated stimuli, is probably the first style of learning that humans emerge that they do not need to be so sensitive about the less important things in their daily lives. There are classical and operant conditions with which human face to learn something. While several models of learning styles are introduced, the most interesting one was the sleep-assisted learning that we often wonder it works or not. I personally have experienced an English learning CD that I can listen to a recorded English story to learn a second-language. If humans were able to learn something while asleep, it would not make sense why students need to wake up in the early morning to go to school. B.F. Skinner, a famous behaviorist, believed that at the same time humans learn something, they are thinking. The monitor subjects were doubted if they were awake to think what they were listening to. Customers have the right to require those companies to show more scientific evidence that the sleep-assisted learning really works or not.
