How Psychological Aspects Affect Learning, Cognition, and Motivation

  • Trust
  • Self Esteem
  • Gender Stereotypes
  • Social Interaction

Cognition, learning, and motivation are all things that a teacher and student must be familiar with in order to be successful in the classroom. These things can vary from student to student and can be affected by psychological aspects as well as cultural aspects. Today I am going to discuss with you what learning, cognition, and motivation are and how psychological and socio-cultural aspects may affect them.
