Task One - Discuss behaviourist applications to education Behaviourists use an approach to learning and education where they concentrate on pupils’ behaviour and‚ more specifically‚ changes in observable behaviour. This is in contrast to a more cognitive approach which focuses on inner thought processes. Focusing on observable behavioural changes is obviously important in the realm of education since teachers need to be able to see what students are doing and to identify the reasons for students

He tells the waitress at the beginning that her tips (reward) will change during the dinner time: he will add money to the tips if he is satisfied with her service (positive reinforcement)‚ but he will take some money off the pile as soon as he is dissatisfied (punishment). This is his way of motivating the

Behaviourists approach assumptions - The main assumption of the behaviourist approach to understanding abnormality is that all behaviour‚ normal or abnormal‚ is learned from the environment. This means that if a behaviour is associated with a positive outcome it is likely to be repeated‚ but if is associated with a negative one it is unlikely to be repeated. The three types of learning are classical conditioning‚ operant conditioning and social learning. Classical conditioning is learning by association

student a specific medication and ask the students to prepare a creative presentation. The student that makes the most creative project gets extra points. The students may be more likely to work harder because they know they will receive a desired reward for their work. Instructors can also use drill and practice to increase the likelihood that the medication information in the unit will be retained. An example of negative reinforcement would be punishing a student‚ beyond just deducting points

consequences of actions. Actions which have a good outcome through positive reinforcement (reward) or negative reinforcement (removal of something bad) will be repeated. Actions which have a bad outcome (punishment) will not be repeated. Operant conditioning explains how abnormal behaviours might be maintained. This could be through positive reinforcement; behaviours which have a good outcome by bringing some sort of reward are said to be positively reinforced. On the other hand it could be down to negative

Operant Conditioning. I decided on this theory because I think it is easy to base it on my hobbies and observations. Citing examples would not be difficult. Most of my learning motivations and what I have observed from others are based largely on rewards and punishments or something similar to those. I believe most people would be able to relate to this theory and I also thought it would be fun and interesting to connect my hobbies to something educational and related to my course. My learning

conditioning is the second type of associated learning in this type of learning organisms learn to make association between behavior and a consequence for example getting a punishment or reward for a behavior as a result for this association we can see that people or organisms increase positive behaviors with reward and to decrease negative behavior with punishment .

. From the dat that we are born‚ we begin a process of learning that lasts througout life. while there are many ways to define and describe learning‚ it is typically defined as a relatively permanent change in behaviour as a result of experience. one of the forms of learning is known as conditioning. Conditioning emphasise the relationship between stimuli and responses. the two types of conditioning found are classical conditioning and operent conditioning‚ learning may occur in different ways
