B.F. Skinner And Programmed Instruction
[ send me this paper ]
An 18 page paper. B.F. Skinner has often been called the most influential behaviorist in history and definitely the most influential in the field of learning theory. His operant behaviorism laid the foundation for learning theories that have been used in our classrooms for the last forty years both in terms of managing classrooms and in terms of instructional strategies. One of the offshoots of his work was programmed instruction, also called programmed learning. This paper explains Skinner's theories and provides a history of programmed instruction. It then discusses the integration of the two. The writer also makes a point to discuss the fact that Skinner's theories are theories and not processes. Examples are included. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

Baddeley’s Model of Short Term or “Working” Memory
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page
report discusses Alan Baddeley’s working memory model (published
with Gregory Hitch in 1974). According to the model, working
memory consists of three components: a phonological
(articulatory) loop that is responsible for speech-based
information, a visuospatial sketch pad that is responsible for
visual images, and a central executive which integrates
information from the two other structures in conjunction with
information from long term memory. In his model of working
memory, Baddeley demonstrated that those multiple components of
working memory serve as the mechanisms for the temporary
maintenance of information. The central executive also plays a
role in planning and controlling behavior. What Baddeley
ultimately demonstrates, both through his model and his many
other contributions in the field, is what an important role
memory plays in the day-to-day lives of human beings.
Bibliography lists 10 sources.
