Learning is "habituated association".
Desired behaviors are produced in their correlating environment.
Readers should be trained in each "component skill".
Readers should be able to perform the component skills in their desired sequence.
Nativist
Chomsky

Universal grammar
Language acquisition device
Children need exposure to language
Ability to determine grammar rules when language is heard
Social Interationist
