Correct Answer - Option 4 : The capability of transferring/using learning in different situation

Learning is the acquisition of new behaviour or the strengthening or weakening of old behaviour as a result of experience. It represents progressive changes in
behavior. It also involves the acquisition of knowledge, habits, and attitudes. According to Ausubel, the meaningful learning process pre-supposes two things: 

  •  the learning task is potentially meaningful or that it can be related substantively to the learner’s cognitive structure.
  •  the learner manifests a corresponding set to relate it.

  • ​Meaningful learning results when a person consciously and explicitly ties new knowledge to relevant concepts they already possess.
  • It is the active creation of knowledge structures from personal experience.
  • When meaningful learning occurs, it produces a series of changes within our entire cognitive structure, modifying existing concepts and forming new linkages between concepts.
  • Meaningful learning implies that what has been learned is intellectually linked and understood the context of what was previously known.
  • Meaningful learning entails the internalization of material presented to the learner through progressive differentiation and integrative reconciliation.
  • Thus meaningful learning depends on the nature of the material to be learned, and the availability of relevant content in the learner’s cognitive structure.

 Characteristics of Meaningful Learning:

  • It stresses the ability of the learner to apply what is learned because of the involvement of the learners.
  • It is the capability of transferring or using learning in different situations.
  • Meaningful learning is the human mechanism par excellence for acquiring and storing a vast quantity of ideas.
  • Meaningful learning is possible only when learners make a deliberate effort to relate new knowledge to the relevant concept they already know.

Thus, it is concluded that The capability of transferring/using learning in a different situation is the reflection of meaningful learning.
