Learning Record Form For Research ONLY Name: Siriyakorn Gam

The purpose of this form is to document your learning as you are researching.

What you should see is that learning is a process. Your goal should be to update this form on a daily basis as you work and nd out addiDonal informaDon:
Include the informaDon you have learned, with the main ideas summarized in your own words. If you cant summarize it in your own words, you havent learned it.
Include the dates so that you can monitor your learning process.

As you learn more, you should always have more quesDons. We should see conDnuous quesDons and answers as you seek to deepen your knowledge.

Knowledge SecDon: This secDon will be where you record what you know, as well as what you learn. At the end it should give us a picture of the learning that took place
during this project.
Things you know and things you learned: This secDon will be the rst secDon you will ll out. Here you will list, summarized in your own words, every important
idea that you know so far. Later, as you learn more, you should add to this list. Choose a specic color for all the things that you know. Choose a dierent color for
all the things that you learn. This should be summarized in your own words.

QuesDon SecDons: QuesDons drive learning. Asking eecDve quesDons is the key to real learning. You should keep a careful record of all quesDons that come to your
mind. If the teacher comes to ask what you are doing, you should be able to show them the quesDon that is driving your learning.

Things you know that you dont know: These should be quesDons that come from you. Having focused quesDons is an important part of doing ecient research. If
the teacher comes to ask you what you are doing, you should be able to show them the quesDon you are focused on. As you learn new informaDon, add it to the
things you know secDon in a dierent color.

Things you didnt know that you dont know: As you conDnue to research and learn, you will come across words or ideas that you have never heard of before. This
is a very valuable chance to learn. It will also lead you to have quesDons such as: what does this word mean? Who made this theory? How does this relate to this?
These quesDons will add even more opportuniDes for you to learn. As you learn the answers to these quesDons, add them to the things you learned list in a third
dierent color.

1.) What is the example of innate behavior?
Things you know and things you learned.

25/04/2017
1)Animal behavior or Ethology is the study of how animals anatomy and physiology are coordinated
with its action or behavior which can be stimulated by the stimuli or the interaction of the organism
with the same species, different species and the surrounding environment in order to survive and
reproduce successfully.
2) Internal stimuli: blood pressure rate or heart rate, External stimuli: temperature, light or sound
3) Innate behavior is the behavior that controlled by gene with little or no influence from the
environment. This type of behavior occurs naturally since the organism was born. The organism doesnt
have to learn or practice.

1) The examples of innate behavior is fish can swim without learning from their parents.

2) Learned behavior is the behavior that occurs from experiences or learning and it is not inherited. This
behavior can be adapted or modify to fit the changing of different conditions and it depends on the
animal capability.
3) Types of learning behavior are habituation, sensitization, and conditioning
01/05/2017
1) Habituation is the form of learning in which animal stop responding to stimuli when it realize that the
stimuli do not affect it in both bad ways or good ways.
2) Sensitization is an increasing of the response to stimulus.
3) Conditioning is the building of association with two events which has specific outcome which consists
of two types, classical conditioning and operant conditioning.

4) What is classical conditioning? 1) What is operant conditioning?

Things you know and things you learned.

01/05/2017
4)Classical conditioning was found by Ivan Pavlov. It is a form of learning in which animal response
associate with 2 stimuli. It is the technique that used for training the animal behavior. It consists of 5
methods, flooding, desensitization, graded exposure, counterconditioning and graded
counterconditioning.
1) It is when an animal learns to perform an action voluntarily in order to get a reward or to avoid a
punishment which different from classical conditioning as it is the association between a behavior and a
consequence. There are four types of operant conditioning which are positive reinforcement, negative
reinforcement, positive punishment and negative punishment.

6) What is desensitization?
7) What is graded exposure?

Things you know and things you learned.

01/05/2017
5) Flooding is the exposing animal to the stimulus for a long time in order to make the animal stop being
fear of that stimulus, this method however, is not recommended because if the trainer does it wrong the
animal will be more afraid of the stimulus.
6) Desensitization is exposing animal to the stimulus and changing the variable until the sign of being
fear is disappeared. This method is the common method that used to treat fear or anxiety of animal.
The important thing is animal needs to feel comfort.
7) Graded exposure is the method that the trainer put the stimuli at the furthest distance that makes
animal shows the sign of fear then, wait until the animal stops showing the sign. After that, reduce the
distance and repeat it again until the animal stop being feared.

8) Counterconditioning is the method that the trainer use the positive stimulus along with the negative
stimulus in order to change their emotional to be better while the animal is exposed to the negative
stimuli.
9) If the trainer want to touch the guinea pig but it doesnt like so, try to touch it and give the food
immediately afterward. Then repeat the steps again. The guinea pig will allow the trainer to touch
because it will think that if the trainer touch it will get the food.
10) Graded counterconditioning is the combination between graded exposure and counterconditioning.
2) In operant conditioning, positive means adding something.
3) Negative means removing something
4) Reinforcement means increasing the behavior
5) Punishment in operant conditioning means decreasing the behavior
