Continuations of "Respective ways of teaching advocated by behaviorists"

Hi everyone. Today, I am here again to share on what I have learned my this week Pedagogy In Education. In this week class, me and friends learned a few other new respective ways of teaching advocated by behaviorists.

1. Precision Teaching (PT) - Occurs when learners master a fact or skill. For example, when students are able to spell a word correctly or until they achieve a high level of fluency or precision. They believe in the term " Practice Makes Perfect". On the other hand, precision teaching is also known as a method of planning a teaching program to meet or fulfill the need of an individual child or young person who is experiencing difficulty with gaining or maintaining  some skills. Moreover, it has an implanted monitoring function and is basically a means of appraising the effectiveness of what is being taught. When the learners have the interest in learning or doing something, the more the more they will learn and carry out the thing in future. 

2. Applied behavioral Analysis (ABA)-  Is the application of principals of  learning and motivation from Behavior Analysis, and the methods and technology obtained from those principals, to the quick fix of problems of social compelling. Besides that, ABA is mostly used in clinical settings  in order to change the behavior of the clients towards more normal or acceptable sequences For example, in schools and hospitals. Furthermore, ABA  also follows a prescribed procedure. 

      Besides that, after learning about the few respective ways of teaching, our lecturer conducted an activity. She told us sit separately and write all the information or ideas on the "School of Thoughts" that we have learned in the previous classes and still able to remember. This is activity was conducted in order for our lecturer and ourselves as well to know our level of understandings on the 3 respective "Schools of Thought" which are the Cognitive, Humanistic and Behavioral School of Thought. We were given 30 minutes time to write all the information and after that, we were told to present those information in front of the classroom. The entire activity was fun and interesting and at the same time, it was helpful for us because we are able to recall or brainstorm all the important aspects that we have learned in the three Schools of thought. This activity will definitely help us to improve our level of understandings on the Schools of Thought in future. 

      This is all we have learned in this week class. I guess that is all from me for now. Please do continue to give your feedback and thanks for viewing my blog. Hope to be back with a new topic next week. Take care and have a nice day.
