Description:
Students learning is focused on observable behaviors. Learning is defined as the aquisition of new behavior in a student.
‍What Behaviorist Theory looks like in a classroom:
- Teacher gives positive reinforcement- rewarding students for good behavior
- Teacher gives negative reinforcement- punishing students for bad behavior.
- Theory cannot explain some learning- such as recognition of new language patterns because that has no reinforcement mechanism.
- It relies only on observable behaviors and describes several universal laws of behavior
- Students should be active.
- People learn when they have a chance to behave.
