Pavlov,
Watson, and Skinner are considered the originators of behaviorism. All
contributed to learning theory. All three of the researchers studied the
effects of the environment on learning.
Select one of the three behaviorists who, in
your opinion, offers the most compelling argument for the use of behaviorism
when teaching a new subject to an adult and to a child. Identify that
behaviorist, then answer the following questions about his approach:
- Describe how that behaviorist
would teach an adult a new skill. Be specific; what is the skill? - What steps would the
behaviorist use? - Would that behaviorist use a
different approach with a child? - Why do you think this
behaviorist’s approach is best? - What issues or problems do you
find in the other two behaviorists’ approaches?
original answers please.
