Comparison to other species. Various attempts have been made to identify a single behavioral characteristic that distinguishes humans from all other animals.

Many anthropologists think that readily observable characteristics (tool-making and language) are based on less easily observable mental processes that might be unique among humans: the ability to think symbolically, in the abstract or logically, although several species have demonstrated some abilities in these areas. Nor is it clear at what point exactly in human evolution these traits became prevalent. They

Сmay not be restricted to the species Homo sapiens, as the extinct species of the genus Homo (e.g. Homo neanderthalensis, Homo erectus) are believed to also have been adept tool makers and may also have had linguistic skills.

In learning environments, reflection is an important part of the loop to go through in order to maximize the utility of having experiences.
