B.F. SKINNNER
Proper immediate reinforcement strengthens the likelihood

that appropriate behavior will be repeated.

OPERANT CONDITIONING Form of learning in which a response increases in frequency as a result of being followed by reinforcement & also called behavior modification

Positive Reinforcement
consequence that brings about the increase of a behavior through the presentation (rather that the removal) of a stimulus. ROUTINES

Using Skinners theory in the classroom requires teachers to

ensure students understand what is to be expected of them. Developing routines, rules, and goals that students are expected to follow will promote a safe environment.

REWARDS skinner believed in reinforcing the positive behaviors.

Rewarding students for following the rules or expectations

promotes these students to continue positive behaviors. By only acknowledging or rewarding positive behaviors, those undesirable behaviors will stop or decrease.

CRITIQUES
Some theorist believe that "rewards are counterproductive because they are extrinsic rather than internal motivations." Students learn to do the right thing only if they receive the extrinsic reward.

Then there are those theorist that believe in punishment as

an effective tool in behavior management and not just positive reinforcement.

WILLIAM GLASSER
helping people look to present conditions to find solutions to problems"

Education is the process through which we discover that

learning adds quality to our lives students have specific human needs and motives and should accept responsibility for their behavior

CHOICE THEORY
only person whose behavior we can control is our own, and each person makes his own choices in everything they do.

there must be a closeness in relationship between the parents

and teachers with the student in order to change misbehaviors

EXTERNAL CONTROL destroys human relationships and prevent individuals from getting along with each other

5 NEEDS Survival (food, clothing, shelter, breathing, personal safety and others) Belonging/connecting/love

Power/significance/competence
Freedom Fun/learning

QUALITY SCHOOL
helps students satisfy one or more psychological needs and adds quality to students' lives

CRITIQUES Some believe that it is too hard or time consuming to switch from operant conditioning/stimulus-response theories/behavior modification

Critique cultural and gender diversities do not allow for choice

making or freedom

THOMAS GORDON
who owns the problem

Offers parents and teachers strategies for helping children

become more self-reliant, self-controlled, responsible, and

cooperative.

DISCIPLINE AS SELF CONTROL Responsibility for disciplines lies within the student who has to accept responsibility for changing their behavior.

PROBLEMS OWNERSHIP
problem rests with student, and they will have to accept responsibility for changing their behavior ACTIVE LISTENING Teachers genuinely hear and understand the comments,

concerns and behaviours of students.

EMPHATHETIC UNDERSTANDING learn about individual students and each one's specific needs, interest, and abilities

I-MESSAGE teachers express how they feel about the behavior or how it effects them

ENVIRONMENT
create enviroments that allow students to be motivated and involved in the learning process

WINNIG vs LOSING

Use less rewards and punishments in order to not cause peer

statuses that put students at higher or lower levels, causing misbehaviors in the classroom.

SIX STEP PROCESS define the problem generate possible solutions evaluate the solutions decide the best solution

determine how to implement solution

assess how well it solved the problem

SELF DISCIPLINE
discipline in the form of punishment produces misbehaviors, instead teach and nurture discipline so students know how to control themselves

CRITIQUES
Teachers have always relied on rewards and you-statements, change to decades old practices is difficult

difficult to implement theories to severe behavior that does

provide time to think solutions through
