These are insights gained from psychology which have a bearing on the learning process.

The following issues should be taken into account when dealing with learning experiences in the curriculum.
- Capability of the learner
- Maturational level of the learner

- Organization – grouping of learning experiences for optimal effect.
- Methodology – dealing with the question of what methods and approaches are likely to promote and guiding learning most effectively.
Psychology also contributes to:
