Individual Variable

• The important individual variable that influences leaning is.

  Maturation :                                                                

  Maturation refers to the unfolding of biologically inherited potentialities as a function of time. The rate of leaning will be greatest when the maturation condition is most favorable; lacking a sufficient degree of maturity, a child cannot learn

• Readiness to learn:-

  Learning readiness is the capacity and willingness to learn. If child is ready he learns faster better and with great satisfaction

• Age: 

  When other factors remain constant, a progressive improvement occurs in learning with increase in age.

• Sex:                                                                                       

Sex difference has been noticed in learning of certain abilities.

• Previous experience:                

Successful previous experience is a motivational force to consequent performance, while unsuccessful experience puts a drag further learning.

• Mental disabilities:                

  Learning depends upon the leaner's mental abilities. Mental disabilities retards learning

• Physical handicaps:

  Handicaps retard the learning of many motor skills
