2. incidental learning & intentional learning

➢While reading for pleasure a reader does not bother to look up a new word in a dictionary, but a few pages later realizes what that word means, then incidental learning is said to have taken place.

➢If a student is instructed to read a text and find out the meanings of unknown words, then it becomes an intentional learning activity. ngauage
