Open Ended

對下禮拜要定期評量的大家「說一句話」

(友善校園週雖然過了，但請友善包容充滿愛，謝謝)

The articles of the second week✌️

1. Teaching Your Dog to “Talk”
   (與狗狗的創新溝通從按鈕開始)

2. From Pixar to Reality:Looking at the Real Flapjack Octopus

   (會隱形的深海傘章魚:煎餅章魚)

3. Conflict Diamonds:Reflection of Misery

   (衝突鑽石:璀璨外表下的苦難)

Summary:
1.狗按鈕幫助溝通 (但要預先錄製的詞語例如「散步」、「玩耍」)
2.聯想學習原理 (學習者可以將動作與結果聯繫起來。例如，如果主人總是按「散步」按鈕然後帶狗去散步，狗最終會將「散步」按鈕的聲音與散步的經驗聯繫起來)
3.訓練技巧與優勢
①可將按鈕固定在地板上幫助狗辨識位置
②從狗喜歡的活動開始訓練
