Detailed Explanation
According to Gestalt psychology, learning is not merely based on mechanics or trial-and-error, but depends on cognitive restructuring. Wolfgang Köhler proved through his experiments that when an organism faces a problem, it observes the entire situation directly (Gestalt perception) and suddenly experiences an 'Aha! Moment', thereby finding a holistic solution to the problem, which is known as the theory of insight.
