Solution:

Learning is a comprehensive process that refers to a change in behavior, knowledge and skills as a result of practice and experience.Children are always encouraged to concentrate on learning in schools. A lot of effort is dedicated by the teacher and the parents to aid the child in the learning process.Although significant learning occurs through these efforts, a child may not necessarily perform up to his best potential. This may occur due to many factors.Factors influencing learning includes:Cultural content: Cultural content and its value are significant influencers in the process of learning. A child who is aware of his culture and is motivated to preserve the cultural integrity of the society develops an interest in learning more about the society and thinks about the ways towards the betterment of the society.Maturation: Maturation is the process by which we change, grow, and develop throughout life. The maturation of the learner affects learning because ?maturation is related to the structure and potential capacity.Interest: Interest refers to a feeling that keeps learners involved and attentive while learning or doing a specific task. Subjects in which a learner is interested reflect his motivation, attraction, and attentiveness in favor of that subject. If a learner is disinterested in learning a particular subject it shows that he/she has a feeling of demotivation against that subject.Emotional factor/Emotions: Emotion impacts our levels of motivation. Positive emotions can help a student engage with learning longer because they stay motivated. Emotions during learning also impact our feelings toward education. If we have positive experiences, we are more likely to enjoy our schooling and develop a love for learning.Hence, it is clear that all (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) factors influence learning.
