Psychological Definition of Learning: A relatively permanent change in an organism's behavior due to experience. 

Definition of Classical Conditioning: We learn to associate two stimuli and thus to anticipate events.

Definition of Operant Conditioning: Organisms associate their own actions with consequences.  Actions followed by reinforcers increase; those followed by punishment often decrease.

Definition of Observational Learning: is the process of learning by watching and imitating the behaviors of others, retaining the information, and then later replicating those behaviors.
