Solution:

Learning is a continuous life-long process that is not inherited but can begin right from birth by providing constant interaction and stimulation received from the physical, social, and cultural environment and it does not stop till the end.Meaningful learning: Meaningful learning results when a person consciously and explicitly ties new knowledge to relevant concepts they already possess. When meaningful learning occurs, it produces a series of changes within our entire cognitive structure, modifying existing concepts and forming new linkages between concepts. Characteristics of meaningful learning:Meaningful learning never promotes rote learning or memorization, it is always based on concepts and logic.The environment of meaningful learning is always child-centered instead of teacher-centered because it focuses on the needs and abilities of the students.It stresses the ability of the learner to apply what is learned because of the involvement of the learners.It is the active creation of knowledge structures from personal experience.Meaningful learning is possible only when learners make a deliberate effort to relate new knowledge to the relevant concept they already know.So we can conclude that meaningful learning is the best technique to learn for the students.HintConcepts are developed by the cognition of the students which helps students to make their knowledge best, they do not learn by coping or intimating others.Engagement of the students as well as the teacher actively in meaningful learning, passive instructions is not the part of learning.
