Psychology 101: Social Learning Project

Individuals constantly change, as do the way individuals think and act.  A major influence of how individuals evolve is through social learning. Learning occurs when an individual construct meaning and understanding.  Your job is to create a theory that integrates new ideas and new ways of learning.   Remember, when a person learns new information it changes their perception, behavior, and their interaction with the environment.
