Description: Learning doesn’t happen in isolation—it’s deeply social. Social Learning Theory explains how people acquire new behaviors, skills, and knowledge simply by observing others. Instead of relying only on direct instruction, this theory highlights the power of modeling, imitation, and social interaction. From classrooms to workplaces and digital learning environments, social learning influences how individuals evaluate actions, adopt behaviors, or consciously reject them. Understanding how social learning theory works helps explain why peer influence, role models, and collaborative learning are so effective. If you’ve ever learned by watching someone else succeed—or fail—this theory is already at work.
