What does learning entails?

According to several researchers there are many ways to learn. Bloom breaks learning into a taxonomy. He states that people first learn to comprehend information, then they recall information, examine information and finally invent using what they have learned. Dr. Howard Gardner has broken learning into 9 types of intelligences. His Project Zero at Harvard tests learming strategies for his 9 intelligences. Piaget in his theories of child development states that children learn in stages and these are determined by brain development. If a child is introduced to a concept before his brain has developed he/ she can't learn it. The earlier learning acts as a foundation for the new learning and this concept comes up in several learning theories. Learning is complex and many factors are involved in how a person learns. Prenatal development can influence future growth and learning, emotional problems can affect learning, child abuse, delayed development, and special needs all affect how a child learns. On top of this each individual learns differently.
