Now, we'll going to talk about what we have studied on the third week.
On Tuesday, We've learned about Instrumental Conditioning.
Instrumental conditioning is another word for operant conditioning, a learning process first described by B.F Skinner. In instrumental conditioning, reinforcement or punishment are used to either increase or decrease the probability that a behavior will occur again in the future.
For example, if a student is rewarded with praise every time she raises her hand in class, she becomes more likely to raise her hand again in the future. If she is also scolded when she speaks out of turn, she becomes less likely to interrupt the class. In these examples, the teacher is using reinforcement to strengthen the hand-raising behavior and punishment to weaken the talking out of turn behavior.
The picture above shows one of the examples of operant or instrumental conditioning. It is called "Skinner Box".
Apart from that, we had an activity in group, which we do a comparison between classical conditioning and operant or instrumental conditioning based on the story from each groups.
On Thursday, our lecturers could not attend to the class because she have work to do. So, she prepared for us some works.
Our group could not manage to get good information about the works that had been given by the lecturer.
3 P.M - most of the groups have finished the works but we just started to photostat and do the works. Alhamdulillah we still manage to finished our works.
As for conclusion, we hope that we will not repeat our mistakes again and we will try to do our best in the future. InsyaAllah.
That's all from us :) Thank you and have a nice day.
