Explanation of Insight Theory of Learning

According to Gestalt Psychology, learning is not a mechanical or gradual process, but rather the sudden reorganization of the total field of a situation or problem.

• Wolfgang Köhler proved through experiments on chimpanzees that when an organism perceives all components of a problem simultaneously, 'insight' suddenly arises in its mind, solving the problem instantaneously.
• Unlike trial-and-error methods, insight involves cognitive restructuring rather than blind repetition.
