They picture a line moving steadily upward as a person learns. To put this into context, let’s take a broader look at how learning occurs. People sometimes think that the rate of learning (skill, knowledge, wisdom, etc.) is fairly linear. This faulty image forms the basis of many misconceptions. Learning isn’t linear.

We may contrast cognitivism, which is a causal theory of mind, with connectionism, which is an emergentist theory of mind.
