Innovative Behaviorism Theory

748 Words3 Pages

The following discussion presents the theories, concepts, insights, generalizations, and ideas which aided and inspired the researcher to construct the contextualized and localized coursebook in Statistics and Probability and which formed the basis for involving the framework of this study. This paper is anchored on the construction of the contextualized and localized coursebook in Statistics and Probability and its effect on the students' performance in statistics and probability. The following diagram (see Figure 1) shows the theories covered in establishing the theoretical framework of the study. The boxes in the second and third column consisted of the learning theories. The development of the material was based on the said theories …show more content…

For the construction of the proposed course book, the following learning theories collectively served as a guide for the researcher. One of these theories is the Cognitive-Behaviorism Theory. Innovative Learning-Behaviorism (as cited in Walker & Moore, 2013) defines learning as “semi-permanent change in behavior.” In other words, if the behavior of the learners substantially change positively, then learning has evidently happened. According to skinner (2011), if a child has not eaten for a long time, the child feels hungry, he then eats. Similarly, a person will behave in a given way if that person leads him to notice small differences in his sensation. In teaching, presenting a lesson relevant to the environment of the learner may see these differences then the person can easily understand the lesson and solve exercises. According to McLeod (2016), human mind at birth is ‘tabula rasa’ (empty slate) and environment is a significant factor that influences his learning. All human behaviors are learned from the environment or environment modelled human behaviors. Drills and memorization are the methods to fill the human mind. Innovative Learning-Cognitivism (2013) states that learning is an “internal process.” This entails that learning will be acquired more if the learners have higher interest to learn. This level of interest is a significant factor to reinforce critical and creative thinking of the learner. A cognitive-behaviorism is an interaction between the mind and behavior. The learner will behave accordingly if the learner thinks that he/she, his/her family, and other people will be benefited by what he/she is doing. Every human being is different in terms of objectives, ambitions, principles and the like. All of these are based on what is on our thought, feelings and behavior. According to Fritscher (2014), if our thoughts, feelings and behavior are satisfied, this may change our reaction. According to Bandura et al. (2010),

    Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) has been used to promote learning and change of behavior using basic principles of behavior analysis. One of the most common applications of ABA is in the field of Autism and Developmental Disabilities. There are individuals who strongly advocate for bringing change through ABA, while there are others who are strongly opposed to it. In this assignment, you will describe both sides of the argument.

  • The Socio Behaviorist Theory

    The Socio-behaviorist theory (behaviorism) Socio-behaviorists often study how children 's experiences model their behaviors (Nolan & Raban, 2015). Behaviorism believes that what matters is not the development itself, but the external factors that shape children 's behaviors (Nolan & Raban, 2015). This theory demonstrates that teachers and mentors dominate and instruct child-related activities, and they decide what children should learn and how to learn (Nolan & Raban, 2015). Reinforcement, which is an essential factor that helps children to learn particular behaviors, generally refers to rewards and punishments (Nolan & Raban, 2015). Children are more likely to repeat actions that result in receiving praise; in contrast, they may ignore or abandon behaviors that make them get punishment.

    Social cognition lends itself to knowing a concept without fully understanding the concept, like being able to tell someone the steps on how to change the tire on the car, but not knowing how to perform the task. Cognitivism has a focus on the role of feedback in learning, which helps guide the student to making improvements. And with behaviorism, one can understand the idea of “I used to be able to do organic chemistry, but I haven’t used it in over twelve years. So, I do not remember how to do some of the problems anymore.” Each theory has a part of the role for online learning, to choose just one would be very

    Introduction Learning enables you as an individual, to gain more knowledge about something which you have never learned about. Learning also has to do with past experiences which are influenced by behavioural changes (Weiten, 2016). There are different types of ways to learn; through, classical conditioning, operant conditioning and observational learning which will be discussed and analysed in the essay.   Behaviourism Behaviourism is considered one of the main subjects in psychology and the two main people who founded behaviourism were, Burrhus Frederic Skinner, also known as B.F Skinner and Ivan Pavlov who were famous for the work they did on classical and operant conditioning (Moderato & Presti, 2006).

    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Background to the study Learning is a change in behavior over time that is brought about by experience during training in educational encounter (Akubuiro and Joshua, 2003). Training as part of education, is the acquisition of knowledge, skills and competence as a result of the teaching of practical skills and knowledge that relate to specific useful competences (Angel, 2007). Training helps the learner to acquire certain useful skills and develop critical mind for the learner’s self-development.

    INTRODUCTION Have you ever thought on how people explain about behaviour? How do we know when learning process has occurred? Learning is permanent change that happened in the way of your behaviour acts, arises from experience one’s had gone through. This kind of learning and experience are beneficial for us to adapt with new environment or surrounding (Surbhi, 2018). The most simple form of learning is conditioning which is divided into two categories which are operant conditioning and classical conditioning.

However, there is no single set of learning theory, which if followed to the latter can grant a tutor a perfect outcome in the classroom. For many years, the study of learning has resulted in heated debates. It has been at the center of educational psychology.

The theories developed by Vygotsky, Piaget, Bloom, and Bruner share similarities and differences, and throughout the years have been compared for educational discoveries.

    In support of his findings, Skinner eventually realized that human beings could not only respond also manage their environment to induce results. However, Skinner and Watson both repudiated that thinking or emotion plays a significant role in determining behavior. Instead, humans appear to learn many behaviors -including languages- through repetitions and positive or negative reinforcement. Scientifically speaking, behaviorism explains how learning takes place. When it is taken into account in the field of language teaching, it shows how languages are learned.

    Behaviour is the way in which we act, speak and treat other people and our environment. Children and young people whose early social and emotional development is positive are more likely to make friends, settle well into school and understand how to behave appropriately in different situations. They have strong self- esteem and a sense of self- worth, but also have a feeling of empathy for others. They understand what the boundaries are, and why they are necessary. Behaviour has a significant impact on current and later success for children and young people, in terms of their social skill development, education and employment.
