    It is important for teachers to go over classroom rules with students and consistently reinforce them because operant conditioning principles can be used to modify student behavior. When teachers clearly communicate rules and provide positive reinforcement like praise for students following rules, it increases the likelihood that students will make good behavioral choices and continue to comply with classroom expectations. Consistency in rule reinforcement helps establish predictable learning environments where students understand behavioral expectations.

    QUESTION 2

    USING CONCEPTS FROM OPERANT CONDITIONING,


    EXPLAIN WHY IT IS IMPORTANT FOR TEACHERS TO GO
    OVER THEIR CLASSROOM RULES WITH THEIR STUDENTS
    AND TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE CONSISTENT IN
    REINFORCING THE RULES!
    WHAT IS OPERANT CONDITION?

    • Operant condition is a type of associative learning process through which


    the strength of a behavior is modified by reinforcement or punishment. It
    is also a procedure that is used to bring about such learning.
    WHY ?

    • Classrooms are unpredictable places. On the first day of school, students


    do not know when they can go the bathroom, if they will be punished for
    leaving their seats, or how the person at the front of the room will treat
    them all year.
    • Strategies for reinforcing good behavior, both intangible and tangible,
    bolster a student’s desire to make the right behavioral choices and follow
    your rules.
    POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT INVOLVES ADDING SOMETHING TO
    INCREASE RESPONSE, SUCH AS:

    • During 'listening time' on the carpet, pupils are required to remain quiet
    and put their hand up when they want to make a vocal contribution to the
    class. When a child manages to sit and behave in the exemplary way, the
    teacher may say, 'Great effort, Jamie' or, 'Well done, Louise - just like I
    asked'. Undoubtedly, the student will feel pleased with themselves after
    getting such a positive response. The feeling of pride and self-satisfaction
    is one they are going to want to emulate in the future, and so they are
    likely to behave well during 'listening time' from here onwards.
