Post 8

Post 8:
a. From a behavioral view, I would define a successful mastery of my lesson objectives by the difference in attitude towards assignments. If a student feels more confident in themselves and more willing to tackle difficult tasks then I believe they have succeeded at mastering my lessons. This would be a prime example of raising their self-efficacy, which is one of my main goals as an educator.
From a social cognitive standpoint, I believe my students will have mastered the lesson objectives once they are able to work well in groups and begin in-depth topic discussions on their own, without my prompting them.

b. For my CSEL case study, there are several ways to approach the situation from a behaviorist view. One way would be to discourage their disruptive behavior by seating them in separate areas of the classroom. On the other hand, a way to encourage productive behavior would be to give them quizzes for paying attention to the other students’ presentations or giving them bonus points for being able to answer questions based on the presentations or the lessons for that day.
