Key Concept of Operant Conditioning
Shaping: It is a process of reinforcing a series of responses that increasingly resemble the desired behavior
Identify what the student can do now (initial behavior)
Identify the desired behaviorIdentify potential reinforcers in the student’s
environmentBreak the desired behavior into small sub-steps to
be mastered sequentiallyMove the student from the initial behavior to the
desired behavior by successively reinforcing each approximation to the desired behavior

Four Important Principlesin Operant Conditioning
Principle of Immediacy: It is behavior that brings the instructor and the students closer together in terms of perceived distance. Non-verbal immediacy includes
behaviors such as smiling, gesturing, moves around the class while teaching and having relaxed body language.
Verbal immediacy refers to calling on by the students or asks students how they feel about things.

Four Important Principlesin Operant Conditioning
Principle of Deprivation/Satiation :
Deprivation - Not having access to something that is highly desirable.
Satiation - is the opposite of deprivation; refers to having too much.

Four Important Principlesin Operant Conditioning
Principle of Contingency : A future event or circumstance that is possible but cannot be predicted with certainty
Principle of Size : If the size, or amount, of the consequence is large enough to be worth the effort, the consequence will be more effective upon the behavior.

Applicability ofOperant conditioning Theory
Conditioning Study Behaviour :For effective teaching teacher should arrange effective contingencies of reinforcement.
–For Self learning of a student teacher should reinforce student behaviour through variety of incentives such as prize, medal, smile, praise etc.

Applicability ofOperant conditioning Theory
Conditioning and classroom behaviour: During learning process child acquire unpleasant experiences also. This unpleasantness becomes conditioned to the teacher subject and the classroom and learner dislike the subject and a teacher.
Atmosphere of recognition, acceptance, affection and esteem helps child in approaching teacher and the subject.

Applicability ofOperant conditioning Theory
Managing Problem Behaviour: Operant conditioning is a behaviour therapy technique that helps correcting problematic behaviour by using positive contingencies viz. praise, encouragement etc for learning.

Applicability ofOperant conditioning Theory
Dealing with anxieties through conditioning: Initially teacher should provide very weak form of conditioned stimulus. Gradually the strength of stimulus should be increased.

Applicability ofOperant conditioning Theory
Conditioning group behaviour: Conditioning makes entire group learn and complete change in behaviour is seen due to reinforcement. It breaks undesired and unsocial behaviour too.

Applicability ofOperant conditioning Theory
Shaping Complex Behaviour: Complex behaviour exists in form of a chain of small behaviour. Control is required for such kind of behaviour. This extended form of learning is shaping technique.
Smallest Behaviour is controlled at initial stage.Vocabulary in English. Teaching spelling is mainly a
process of shaping complex form of behaviour

Applicability of Cognitive Theory
Providing organized Instructions: Signaling important information, drawing attention to specific aspects, using images, and representing information in multiple ways helps in developing focus and help with encoding and retrieval.
Arranging Extensive and Variable Practice: Rehearsing information until a skill becomes habitual. Frequency and type of practice are equally important.
![Page 17: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Applicability of Cognitive TheoryEnhancing Learner’s Encoding Memory: By
helping students to perform at high cognitive level using various strategies.
Enhancing Learner’s Self-control of Information Processing: Enabling the learner to control and modify information flow within the information processing model.

HUMANISTIC APPROACH
![Page 19: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CONCEPTAffect - Emphasis on feeling and thinkingSelf-Concept – PositiveCommunication - Positive and HonestPersonal Values - Must know themselves,
express themselves, self-identity, actualize themselves
![Page 20: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
PRINCIPLESA principal purpose of education
is to provide learning and an environment that facilitate the achievement of the full potential of students.
Personal growth as well as cognitive growth is a responsibility of the school. Therefore education should deal with both dimensions of humans – the cognitive or intellectual and the affective or emotional.
For learning to be significant, feelings must be recognized and put to use.
![Page 21: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PRINCIPLESSignificant learning is
discovered for oneself.Human beings want to
actualize their potential.Having healthy relationships
with other classmates is more conducive to learning.
Learning about oneself is a motivating factor in learning.
Increasing one’s self-esteem is a motivating factor in learning
![Page 22: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Applicability of Humanistic TheoryOpen Education:
–Rich education environment by allowing the student to have a choice in the selection of tasks and activities whenever possible
–Help students learn to set realistic goals
–Have students participate in group work, especially cooperative learning
–Teacher being a role model for the attitudes, beliefs and habits you wish to foster
![Page 23: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Applicability of Humanistic TheoryFacilitative Teaching:–Positive response to student feeling–Discussion with students and use of student
ideas in ongoing instructional interactions–Praise of students–Congruent teacher talk (less ritualistic)–Tailoring of content to the individual student's
frame of reference (fit the immediate needs of the learners)
–Smiling with students–Educator must be an active listener–Experience to the student is the highest
authority
![Page 24: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
SOCIAL CONSTRUCTIVIST APPROACH
![Page 25: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
CONCEPTLearner uses his own
experiences to actively construct understanding that makes sense to them, rather than have understanding delivered to them in already organized form.
In this model, students construct the meaning of knowledge through discussion, discovery, open-ended learning, making connections etc. Learning means individual sense-making.
![Page 26: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
PRINCIPLES
Own meaning of conceptSubjectivity in ThinkingLearning outcomes varyCreative outcomesFlexibility and freedom in thinkingStudents compare their work with othersLearning while enjoyingIntrinsic motivation plays role
![Page 27: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Applicability of Constructivist TheoryReciprocal Thinking: A
teacher and 2-4 students form a collaborative group and take turn in leading a dialogue on a topic using 4 strategies:
–Questioning–Summarizing–Clarifying–Predicting
Cooperative Learning: Peer group can also spur children’s development by fitting into the ZPD
![Page 28: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Applicability of Constructivist TheorySituated Learning:
Exam-oriented ‘inert’ knowledge is avoided and it has to be learned in a meaningful context and through active process. Situated learning argues that knowledge cannot be taught in an abstract manner, and that to be useful, it must be situated in a relevant or “authentic” context.
![Page 29: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Applicability of Constructivist TheoryAnchored Instructions: It emphasizes the need to
provide students with opportunities to think about and work on problems by group or collaborative problem-solving.
![Page 30: Applicability of learning theories](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062412/589a1b691a28ab2a678b5ad5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Applicability of Constructivist TheoryAssessment: It is to be
used as a tool to enhance both the student’s learning and the teacher’s understanding student’s progress. Methodologies used may be reflective journal/ portfolios, case studies, group based presentation, role-playing etc.
