    Behaviorism Cognitivism

    Ian Pangilinan
    Behaviorism is a learning theory based on the idea that conditioning through interactions with the environment shapes behavior. It asserts that behaviors are acquired through classical and operant conditioning. Classical conditioning pairs a neutral stimulus with an innate stimulus to elicit the same response, while operant conditioning uses reinforcement and punishment to modify behavior. Cognitivism focuses on how information is received, organized, stored, and recalled in the mind. It emphasizes stages of cognitive development and using instructional methods that consider a learner's prior knowledge and mental models.

    BEHAVIORISM OR ASSOCIATIVE LEARNING THEORY

    Definitions

    Behaviorism is a theory of learning based on the idea that all behaviors are acquired through
    conditioning, and conditioning occurs through interaction with the environment.

    In simple terms, according to this school of thought, also known as behavioral psychology, behavior can
    be studied in a systematic and observable manner regardless of internal mental states.

    - Strict behaviorists believe that any person—regardless of genetic background, personality traits,
    and internal thoughts— can be trained to perform any task, within the limits of their physical
    capabilities. It only requires the right conditioning.

    Types of Behaviorism

    1. CLASSICAL CONDITIONING
    Is a technique frequently used in behavioral training in which a neutral stimulus is paired
    with a naturally occurring stimulus. Eventually, the neutral stimulus comes to evoke the
    same response as the naturally occurring stimulus, even without the naturally occurring
    stimulus presenting itself.
    The classical conditioning process works by developing an association between an
    environmental stimulus and a naturally occurring stimulus.

    Factors that impact conditioning


    During the first part of the classical conditioning process, known as acquisition, a response is
    established and strengthened. Factors such as the prominence of the stimuli and the timing of
    the presentation can play an important role in how quickly an association is formed.

    When an association disappears, this is known as extinction. It causes the behavior to weaken
    gradually or vanish. Factors such as the strength of the original response can play a role in how
    quickly extinction occurs. The longer a response has been conditioned, for example, the longer it
    may take for it to become extinct.

    2. OPERANT CONDITIONING

    Operant conditioning, sometimes referred to as instrumental conditioning, is a method of learning


    that occurs through reinforcement and punishment.

    Factors that impact conditioning


    - Continuous reinforcement
    - Partial reinforcement

    COGNITIVISM

    - Cognitivism is the theory that focuses on how we receive, organize, store, and recall information
    in our minds.
    - One of the main contributors of cognitivism was Jean Piaget. Piaget identified stages of cognition
    that all children pass through universally based on their age and stage of mental development.
    - The predictable stages of cognition that Piaget identified were sensorimotor, pre-operational,
    concrete operational, and formal operational.
    - Instruction should be organized, sequenced, and presented in a manner that is understandable
    and meaningful to learner.
    - Cognitivism emphasizes retention and recall using quality teaching practices.

    Cognitivism has had significant implications for education and learning. Here are some examples
    of how cognitivism is applied in education:

    3. Instructional design: Cognitivism has influenced instructional design by emphasizing the


    importance of prior knowledge and mental models in learning.

    4. Metacognition: Cognitivism has also led to an emphasis on metacognition, or the ability to


    reflect on and regulate one's own thinking.

    5.

    6. Inquiry-based learning: Inquiry-based learning is another instructional approach that is based on


    cognitivist principles. In this approach, students are encouraged to ask questions, seek
    information, and solve problems independently.
