Learning Theory: Gagne

Robert Gagne's theory is based on the behaviorist view: His theory supports the following ideas:

Learning causes an observable change in the learner.
Skills should be learned one at a time.
Each new skill learned should build on previously acquired skills.
Learning and knowledge are both hierarchical in nature.
