Summary/Abstract: The learning process involves four psychological components : a cognitive component (meaning intellectual reflection, logical comprehension, using memory); a meta-cognitive component (the learner's abilities to self-regulate, self-evaluate, organize oneself, use appropriate learning strategies, identify the resources to use to achieve the goals) ; an affective component (including emotions and feelings, which will help or, on the contrary, hinder during the learning) and a conative component (understanding what motivates the learner and what allows this one to persevere). The feelings composing the affective component reflect the learner’s internal and external (social) environment and influence the success of the process. If the teacher knows them, the teaching strategies may be adapted to the learners’ needs.
