learning type

Classifies a learning event by its variety — one or more of the gmeow:LearningEventType value vocabulary. NOT functional: a single event may carry several varieties at once (a transfer that also consolidates is both gmeow:learningTransfer and gmeow:learningConsolidation), so the property admits multiple values rather than forcing one. The learning analogue of gmeow:inferenceMode / gmeow:mentalProcessType.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:LearningEvent -> gmeow:LearningEventType

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:learningType from gmeow:LearningEvent to gmeow:LearningEventType when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.
