This paper is specifically about the evolution of behaviourism
and how it is extremely different to what it was known to be when I was first “discovered”
as such. Behaviourism has been thrown
around for many years now constantly being criticized, dissected and assessed.
Without many people knowing certain parts of behaviourism are in all of scientific
psychology. Behaviourism even though it has been around for a long time is constantly
changing and being used in many different areas which can see a change for the better
and lead to new discoveries that no one would’ve believed to happen. As said in
the paper behaviourism doesn’t have a distinct major significance but it is
everywhere and it is a huge part of scientific-psychological thought.
2. A Comparison of Two Theories of Learning -- Behaviorism and Constructivism as applied to Face-to-Face and Online Learning

This paper discusses the two learning theories behaviourism and constructivism. The paper goes into great detail on how behaviourism is always being examined and how behaviour can be predicted and even controlled to an extent. The paper also explained how an environment can affect learning and change outcomes. We see how constructivism differs from behaviourism and how constructivists see learning as a way to know meaning. We get to discover how even though the two theories are different they are also connected in how they can change a child’s learning perspective in ways. We also learn how these theories effect teachers and their learning perspectives, and how they are viewing the ways of new technologies.

This paper is talks about how computer technologies like interactive learning has made a huge massive impact on society but can be overlooked. The paper goes on to explain how children are constantly manipulating the interactive learning environment but somehow teaching has been left untouched which is a real shock as this type of technology is so beneficial to educational environments. The article also discuses the origins of behaviourism and constructivism and how they can provide a real and authentic e-learning environment if it is given the chance to be explored. The paper makes great points explaining that if these technologies are overlooked that we will be missing out on great opportunities and new ways of teaching.

This paper is about the educational use of video games. This paper explains how a lot of writers seem to forget that there are tonnes of articles and research done about video games and how they affect learning outcomes in children. The paper talks about this research and give the overall outcomes of the research he has collected. Video games are almost seen as a bad thing in most people’s minds but we get to discover that they are teaching us and can be a great way to get children learning and enjoying it. We get to see the strengths and weaknesses to do with learning from video games and how learning theories such as behaviourism and constructivism is evident in this new learning technologies.

This paper is all about positive psychology and the research into its new perspective. The paper dives right into how positive psychology is a way to help children enjoy learning and not focus on the negatives. Learning is supposed to be fun and full of exploration and sometimes it can be overrun with these senses of negativism that can outshine positivism. The article talks about the impact positive psychology can have on not just children but adults it can define who we are help us to focus on the good rather than the bad which most people have trouble with. The paper is not trying to cause a shift but get people to think about their ways of thinking and how thinking positively can be a huge benefit
The layout of my document will have a small introduction into what my article is about I will then talk about my research from my bibliographies I have chosen and then have a small conclusion.
