Theory of trial and error Apostle of Behaviourism
4. Behaviorism is primarily
associated with Pavlov’s
classical conditioning with
Thorndike, and Watson with
Skinner’s operant
conditioning.
5. Classical Conditioning
The process of reflex learning that was investigated by Pavlov.
This is where an unconditioned stimulus, like food, which
produces an unconditioned response like salivation is
presented together with a conditioned stimulus like a bell.
With a result that the salivation is eventually produced on the
presentation of the conditioned stimulus alone (the bell)
therefore becoming a conditioned response.
Operant Conditioning
When an organism participates in a behavior, the
consequences from the behavior reinforces them,
and they are more likely to emit that behavior
again.
6. Teachers Students
Under behaviorism, Under behaviorism,
teachers will reward good students will emit a
behavior which is positive behavior that will be
reinforcement. rewarded. After
retrieving that reward,
the student will remit the
behavior.
7. We believe that behaviorism is a great theory to
implement into our classroom because it
encourages the students to act positively. Also, it
will promote a positive atmosphere in the
classroom. The students will put more effort
into their work to receive a reward.
