On the one hand, it holds a position for conceptual analysis and discussions of how a pedagogical relation is established between an individual and the world. In this sense, it belongs to theoretical pedagogics. Humboldt concepts of receptivity and self-determination (Selbstätigkeit) and Klafki's theory of categorial pedagogy are central contributions to this discussion. On the other hand, the concept of Bildung has a role as a regulative idea due to the ideas and imaginations of various forms of humanity it contains. In this sense, it fulfi lls an ethical dimension since it is regulative for the pedagogical relationship between individual and world.

As such, learning is an important form of personal adaptation. Let's consider each critical element in this definition. Behavioral change occurs in all animals, both human and non-human, and is a process of personal, or ontogenic, adaptation that occurs within the lifespan of each individual to make one's survival more likely. To say that learning is relatively permanent is to emphasize that behavior is flexible and not genetically pre-programmed in form or function. Learned behaviors may exist for a lifetime, but they may also not appear throughout an individual's life. Experience of, or interaction with, the environment that precedes and follows behavior presents the adaptational requirement and consequence of each interaction. An individual placed in a bubble and kept from a...
