Reflection Assignment
I have gained many skills during this class, but I feel that the skills that I gained during

the completion of my signature assignment were the ones that I fully mastered. During my

signature assignment, I had to fully master positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, and

operant conditioning. I had to do this in order to get myself to do more cardiovascular exercise.

I believe that my use of these three skills has helped me achieve that goal.

Not only did I use these skills while completing my signature assignment, but I was able

to use them to create unit reports and study for the unit tests and final. I believe that these skills

are effective in many situations. Now that I know how to use these skills, I will be able to use

them to create more behaviors that benefit me in other classes. These skills will be very helpful

to me throughout the rest of my time as a college student and even after that.

I also was able to master the concepts learned in the unit on memory and learning. These

skills, along with the skills I mastered during the completion of my signature assignment will

help me in classes to come. I will be able to study for tests and do my homework more

effectively. These skills not only helped me complete my signature assignment, but they will

help me get a better grade in the class.

Creating my signature assignment, and this course in general has given me the

opportunity to learn many useful skills that I will apply to various aspects of my life. I believe
that the skills I have learned in this course will make me a better student, as well as a better

person overall.
