, PART 1
Behavioural Theories
The learning theory of behavioral psychology, sometimes referred to as
behaviorism, is predicated on the notion that all behaviors are learned
through conditioning. According to the behavioral approach, the first step in
comprehending student motivation is to conduct a detailed investigation of
the incentives and rewards offered in the classroom. A reward is something
that is provided as compensation for a certain action, such as a desirable
item or experience. The teacher must offer incentives to students, such as
extra credit for finishing arithmetic homework early, in order to assist them
to overcome their bad emotions. An incentive is a device or situation that
encourages or inhibits activity. Encourage kids to complete two English and
math assignments first. Another attempt to engage children through
extrinsic methods of incentives, rewards, and punishments is the
application of stars, grades, stickers, and other rewards or punishments for
misbehavior.
There are different types of behavioral theories such as Psychology's
cognitive theories that place a strong emphasis on inward-looking
phenomena like motivation, problem-solving, judgment, thought, and focus.
These theories seek to explain a variety of mental processes, including
how the brain processes information and how our beliefs affect our feelings
and actions. Humanist beliefs regarding behavior, in contrast to other
theories, frequently stressed normal behavior and psychological issues
rather than the inherent goodness of people. Psychodynamic theories look
at the irrational beliefs that shape our emotions, attitudes, and
personalities. Psychodynamic methods try to identify the underlying factors
that lead to unconscious behavior.
People engage in behaviors according to socio-cultural ideas of motivation
in order to maintain their identities and interpersonal relationships within the
community.. Students are more motivated to learn if they are a part of a
classroom or school environment that fosters learning. We learn how to be
people through socialization in much the same way that we learn how to
speak, dress, or place a food order in a restaurant by watching and
learning from more accomplished members of the culture. We also learn
how to be students by watching and learning from members of our school
