Behaviorism and B.F. Skinner

Before you work on your assignment, please read this. The purpose for assignments in this course is for you to show your learning of the lesson content. Therefore, it is very important that you use the key words and terms in your answers and that you refer to the important concepts from the lesson and the readings as you prepare your assignment. If you only write your own ideas in your answers, it will be difficult to assess your learning of the lesson content. 1. Using what you have learned about B.F. Skinner's schedules of reinforcement, design a reinforcement schedule for a student (real or made-up). Explain the student's current behavior and then explain how you could use the schedule of reinforcement to change that behavior. 2. Describe 'continuous' and 'intermittent' reinforcement and the importance of each in classroom management skills as described in the online lesson.
