behaviorist learning theories emphasize changes in behavior that result from stimulus-

response associations made by the learner. Behavior is directed by stimuli. all behaviors


can also be unlearned, and replaced by new behaviors; that is, when a behavior
becomes unacceptable, it can be replaced by an acceptable one. A key element to this
theory of learning is the rewarded response. The desired response must be rewarded in
order for learning to take place. behaviorism suggests that in classroom instruction,
learning tasks should be broken down into small, discrete individual behaviors to be
developed into good habits.

            The goal of the lesson is for the learner to make the pattern become a
mechanical habit through imitation and repetition.

Example : pronounciation…..

Repeat and repeat….with the addition of positive or negative reinforcements, to guide pupils
towards right direction.

Behavior…

Rules:not to eat in class

Those brule breakers will receive punishments till themselves n others wont commit the wrong
doing again.
