Which learning can be latent?

Would anyone be able to correct me if there's anything wrong here?
Observational learning - can be latent
Classical conditioning- not generally latent
Operant conditioning - can be latent
One trial learning - can be latent
Trial and error - can be latent
Insight learning - can be latent...I think

I might be wrong, but I'd say that insight learning wouldn't be latent. I mean, the whole thing about insight learning is that you have this whole 'insightful experience' where the solution to a problem pops into your mind, and you wouldn't be able to have that experience if you were learning it latently, if that makes any sense haha

Latent Learning is learning that occurs sub-consciously and without any direct form of reinforcement. It is in itself, a separate type of learning like classic, operational, observational etc. They will not ask you which of these types of learning is latent. An example would be if someone asked you for directions to somewhere and you knew how to get there despite ever consciously making an effort to learn the directions.
