Explain how theories of development and frameworks to support development influence current practice (CYP 3.1.2.3) Jean Piaget is the most widely known of all educational theorists and perhaps the main contributor to current practice of education. Piaget made vast contributions to the direction‚ meaning and understanding of contemporary constructivism. Examples of Piaget’s contributions include his ideas that knowledge should be actively constructed by a child and learning activities should match

but results have helped us learn a great deal about our behaviors‚ the effect our environment has on us‚ how we learn new behaviors‚ and what motivates us to change or remain the same. Classical and Operant Conditioning Classical Conditioning. One important type of learning‚ Classical Conditioning‚ was actually discovered accidentally by Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936). Pavlov was a Russian physiologist who discovered this phenomenon while doing research on digestion. His research was aimed at better understanding

Unit 8 Psychological Perspectives P1‚ P2‚ P3 (A) Behaviorist Theory According to Crittenden‚ behavior is learnt through seeing what someone else does. This can be explained further through the experiment of classical conditioning. Classical Conditioning was developed by Ivan Pavlov. Pavlov used the experiment of dogs and food so as to measure the levels of salivation that a dog produced when food had been associated with the assistant. He developed this experiment when he noticed that

It also says that we learn all types of behaviours‚ including how to form attachments. Behaviour is learned either through classical or operant conditioning. We learn to form attachment through food. Classical conditioning is learning through association between something in the environment (stimulus) and physical reactions (response). In classical conditioning it proclaims that we learn passively and that the response is normally a reflex because it is automatic. Ivan Pavlov was the first person

Learning theory argues that attachments are based on the principal of operant and classical conditioning; our first attachments are usually formed with our care giver‚ the person who feeds‚ changes and cuddles us. Classical conditioning is based on association‚ for example if a child is hungry them the milk from is the unconditioned stimulus which cause and unconditioned response of relief form its discomfort. This isn’t learned by the child it’s a natural response; however over time the pleasure

Skinner believes that the best way to understand behavior is to look at the causes of an action and its consequences. He believes that behaviors are depending on what happens after the response this is what Skinner calls Operant conditioning. Skinner invented the Operant conditioning chamber which is known as the Skinner box. The Skinner box was invented to study animals such as rats. This box contained a lever and food or water which they will receive as a reward if they press the lever. Skinner also

attachments. The learning theory suggests that we are born with a blank slate which means everyone starts off exactly the same‚ and then we learn all of our behaviours once we are born. The learning theory is split into two areas‚ Operant and Classical conditioning. Operant conditioning is one part of the learning theory to describe attachments. This states that attachments are formed through positive and negative reinforcements. An example of positive reinforcement is when a baby dries and then receives
