Rewards such as stickers‚ extra play time‚ praise‚ or being designated teacher’s helper are examples of positive rein forcers. Negative reinforcement is similarly used by teachers to discourage inappropriate behaviour (Skinner 1985‚ 293).

A Critically Reflective Response to Behaviour Management issues in Key Stage 2 I strongly feel as though I learnt a great deal from my observations during my Key Stage 2 placement. There are certain things which I wish to take forward into my own teaching practice. The experience certainly helped me to eradicate a feeling of cognitive dissonance. It was interesting observing a wide variety of classes throughout Key Stage 2 as it gave me an opportunity to observe a variety of different teaching

Programmed Instruction (or PI for short) is a process of teaching in a sequenced of controlled steps in a structural manner. Every program must have a systematic approach which includes a specific objectives and task analysis. PI was invented by B.F Skinner‚ an American behaviorist. It was derived on his paper‚ “The Science of learning and art of teaching.” The PI moves student from a familiar background to a new and complex concept of understanding. There are

I will explain a factually correct definition‚ a theory that is most closely related to Operant Conditioning‚ and the methods by which B.F Skinner understood it or had studied it.

1. The Cattell- Horn- Carroll model of intelligence is the best known compromise between the singular intelligence theory and the multiple intelligences theory. This model of intelligence proposes that there is a ‘g factor’ or general intelligence factor which was taken from Carroll’s original model. In the CHC model the general intelligence factor is made up of many different cognitive abilities. The piece that was taken from the Cattell&Horn model was the idea that there are two main types of intelligence:

However‚ in writing about the application of behavioral analysis to significant issues in human behavior. Skinner stresses three issues which have general ethical implications. The use of positive reinforcement‚ the minimization of punishment contingencies and the specification of objectives (Skinner 1953‚ 1971).

Show how he could use operant conditioning techniques to (a) reduce disruptive behaviors and (b) increase cooperative behaviors. Answer: Mr. Byrne is having difficulty with his students because he is trying to get them to stop disruptive behavior by using a punisher. By doing this he is actually diminishing the behavior that he wants which are
