Week 3: Lt-1

1. Q-6 Do you think social learning theory is a good practice or bad practice?
(Evaluation)
I believe it is a great practice which we are doing a lot of in the TCPCG program. It is a beneficial way of learning to the student. It pushes students to learn more and increase their knowledge when exposed to others who are more knowledgeable.

2. Describe two of the four types of reinforcement that B.F. Skinner discovered.
(Knowledge)
It should take the form of the stimulus and response idea. The two reinforcements are positive reinforcement and intermittent reinforcement.

3. Using your definitions from the previous question, illustrate a detailed example of the relationship between assimilation and accommodations.
(Application)
Assimilation is the idea that students build upon knowledge when fitting new information into your knowledge. Accommodation is making changes to that new information that is learned. Therefore, the student must gain knowledge from assimilation to be able to use the accommodations technique.
