Experiential learningExperiential learning (ExL) is the process of learning through experience, and is more narrowly defined as "learning through reflection on doing". Hands-on learning can be a form of experiential learning, but does not necessarily involve students reflecting on their product. Experiential learning is distinct from rote or didactic learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role. It is related to, but not synonymous with, other forms of active learning such as action learning, adventure learning, free-choice learning, cooperative learning, service-learning, and situated learning.
Service-learningService-learning is an educational approach that combines learning objectives with community service in order to provide a pragmatic, progressive learning experience while meeting societal needs. Service-learning involves students (k-12, higher ed) in service projects to apply classroom learning for local agencies that exist to effect positive change in the community. The National Youth Leadership Council defines service learning as "a philosophy, pedagogy, and model for community development that is used as an instructional strategy to meet learning goals and/or content standards.
Observational learningObservational learning is learning that occurs through observing the behavior of others. It is a form of social learning which takes various forms, based on various processes. In humans, this form of learning seems to not need reinforcement to occur, but instead, requires a social model such as a parent, sibling, friend, or teacher with surroundings. Particularly in childhood, a model is someone of authority or higher status in an environment.
Life skillsLife skills are abilities for adaptive and positive behavior that enable humans to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of life. This concept is also termed as psychosocial competency. The subject varies greatly depending on social norms and community expectations but skills that function for well-being and aid individuals to develop into active and productive members of their communities are considered as life skills.
Apprentissage automatiqueL'apprentissage automatique (en anglais : machine learning, « apprentissage machine »), apprentissage artificiel ou apprentissage statistique est un champ d'étude de l'intelligence artificielle qui se fonde sur des approches mathématiques et statistiques pour donner aux ordinateurs la capacité d'« apprendre » à partir de données, c'est-à-dire d'améliorer leurs performances à résoudre des tâches sans être explicitement programmés pour chacune. Plus largement, il concerne la conception, l'analyse, l'optimisation, le développement et l'implémentation de telles méthodes.
Théorie de l'apprentissage socialPlusieurs théories reçoivent la dénomination de théorie de l’apprentissage social. La plus connue d'entre elles est celle d’Albert Bandura. La théorie de l’apprentissage social (, abrégée SLT) d’Albert Bandura décrit comment l'enfant peut apprendre de nouveaux comportements en observant d'autres personnes : il imite les modèles de comportement qui font l’objet de récompenses et non de punitions (notion d'). Cette théorie a connu de nombreuses applications dans des domaines aussi divers que la psychologie (éducation, etc.
Cognitive therapyCognitive therapy (CT) is a type of psychotherapy developed by American psychiatrist Aaron T. Beck. CT is one therapeutic approach within the larger group of cognitive behavioral therapies (CBT) and was first expounded by Beck in the 1960s. Cognitive therapy is based on the cognitive model, which states that thoughts, feelings and behavior are all connected, and that individuals can move toward overcoming difficulties and meeting their goals by identifying and changing unhelpful or inaccurate thinking, problematic behavior, and distressing emotional responses.
Habileté (technique)L’habileté désigne une capacité, une aptitude acquise à réaliser un acte, une tâche ou un travail particulier. Du même trait elle désigne la qualité d’une personne habile à réaliser cette action. Par analogie, elle peut être comparée à la virtuosité du musicien. En quelque sorte, la virtuosité est une habileté particulière dont le sens figuré prend la forme d'une habileté supérieure, dans un art ou un métier, par exemple. La notion d’habileté est fortement liée à celle de transmission du savoir-faire.

La psychologie cognitive est l'étude de l'ensemble des états mentaux et l'ensemble des processus psychiques, en résumé : l'étude des activités mentales, qui fournissent à l'homme une représentation interne, une analyse de données externes, et ce, à des fins de prise de décisions et/ou d'actions.
Cognitive biologyCognitive biology is an emerging science that regards natural cognition as a biological function. It is based on the theoretical assumption that every organism—whether a single cell or multicellular—is continually engaged in systematic acts of cognition coupled with intentional behaviors, i.e., a sensory-motor coupling. That is to say, if an organism can sense stimuli in its environment and respond accordingly, it is cognitive.
