• Teachers impart knowledge

• Motivation is provided by teacher

• Students must construct their own knowledge in their own minds

• Behaviors and skills are the goal of instruction

Positive Reinforcement describes...

• A relation between two environmental events (behavior/consequence).

• Occurrence increases by removing an environmental condition.

• Behavior is followed by a consequence decreasing the rate of occurrence.

• A reinforced behavior is no longer reinforced and rate decreases.

Negative Reinforcement describes...

• A relation between two environmental events (behavior/consequence).

• Occurrence increases by removing an environmental condition.

• Behavior is followed by a consequence decreasing the rate of occurrence.

• A reinforced behavior is no longer reinforced and rate decreases.

Punishment describes...

• A relation between two environmental events (behavior/consequence).

• Occurrence increases by removing an environmental condition.

• Behavior is followed by a consequence decreasing the rate of occurrence.

• A reinforced behavior is no longer reinforced and rate decreases.

Extinction describes...

• A relation between two environmental events (behavior/consequence).

• Occurrence increases by removing an environmental condition.

• Behavior is followed by a consequence decreasing the rate of occurrence.

• A reinforced behavior is no longer reinforced and rate decreases.

Antecedent Control

• Rewarding the behavior to increase the likelihood of it occurring.
• Manipulating the environment to increase the likelihood of a desired behavior occurring.
• Using punishment to decrease the likelihood of a desired behavior occurring.
• Ignoring the behavior to decrease the likelihood of it occurring.
