Learning is the process by which experience produces relatively durable changes in knowledge, skills, behavior, or understanding, mediated in the brain by synaptic plasticity and the encoding of new associations. In educational and psychological research it is studied as both an individual cognitive process, shaped by motivation, attention, memory, and prior knowledge, and a socially situated activity influenced by teaching methods, learning environments, and study approaches. Investigation spans pedagogy and instructional design, the measurement of learning outcomes, the role of motivation and self-regulation, support for learners with special educational needs, and the impact of contextual disruptions such as shifts to remote instruction. Computational learning, including machine and deep learning algorithms, also falls under the term as a method by which systems improve performance from data. The peer-reviewed studies indexed under this topic examine the influence of flipped-classroom teaching on learning during the COVID-19 period, students' perceptions of their learning environments and study approaches, student motivation in teaching and learning, teaching methodologies for learners with special educational needs, the effect of the pandemic on education and training, and applications of learning algorithms. Together they reflect research on how learning occurs, how it is taught and assessed, and how cognitive, social, and technological factors shape educational outcomes.
