Student’s behaviour in the everyday classroom

Аннотация

There is a disconnect today between what goes on in much of psychology and what goes on in our classrooms. Cognitive approaches dominate the psychology field and have for decades. But by and large our classrooms still mirror the influence of behaviorism in psychology. There are times and places where behaviorism has proven successful. For example, individuals have been helped through desensitization to deal with and overcome debilitating fears. But there are many times and situations when behavioral approaches do not work.
