Conditions of Learning

Abstract: Robert Gagné was an American educational psychologist who's ideas of conditions of learning and instructional design implications were first introduced in 1965. Gagné assumed that there are different types of learning outcomes, each of which is best achieved through its specific instructional design, but also that there is a set of steps required in every learning environment (sometimes also known as the Gagné Assumption).
