Best Answer

Assimilation is when someone takes a piece of newly learned information and categorizes it into an existing schema or heading. Example: A child kicks a soccer ball with a specific motion. The same child tries to kick a rock and finds that using the same motion allows him to successfully kick the rock. The assimilation is in taking the same motion and using it for more than one purpose.
