The learner needs to be ACTIVE.

The Information-Processing Theory analyzes the different processes that take place in the human mind and which lead to learning. These processes are mainly related with the storage, encoding and retrieval of information. It describes the different memory units, as each of them contributes to the completion of some of those processes: first information is received through the senses, the working memory manipulates it (processing,encoding) to be finally stored in the long-term memory unit.

The individual actively contributes to the sucessful completion of those processes. For example, it is possible to acquire tecniques to encode and to purpousefully use them to improve the learning performance.

The answer is: 15%

The numbers tend to be higher if we include the children from poor/non-industrialized countries.  These countries tend to have low standard of living and very little resources. It is very hard for adults to survive in this country, let alone infants. Because of this, they rely on outsiders such as relatives, government programs, or charities from richer countries for their daily child care.
