Classical conditioning was started by Ivan Pavlov, a psychologist. He used dogs to prove that a being can be conditioned to do something, this means that they learn to do something when one things occurs. In his dogs, he gave the dogs meat powder every time a bell was rung. In turn, the dogs would salivate. After repeating this for a few times, the dogs would salivate at the sound of a bell without the meat powder. The dogs, like any other creature, were unintentionally learning to salivate at the sound of a bell.
Classical conditioning is a type of learning related to Pavlov (a psychologist) and one of the common examples of classical conditioning is where a bell is rang and then the dog is given food and this process is repeated several times. After a while, the dog learns to assume that a ringing bell means food is coming and so the dog begins salivating to simply the sound of the bell expecting food. Classical conditioning is defined as a learning process where two stimuli are repeatedly paired and eventually a response originally elicited by the just the second stimuli is elicited beforehand by the first stimuli.

Classical conditioning is when someone presents a stimulus with another, unrelated stimulus that produces a response, and pretty soon that response to the unrelated stimulus will be present to the first stimulus.

For an example:

There is a dog who is given some food right after a bell rings. The dog, seeing the food, will obviously drool when he sees the food. After a few times when this happens, the bell will sound and the dog will drool, even without him seeing the food.
