SKILLOFREINFORCEMENT
Reinforcementisstrengtheningtheconnectionbetweenastimulusand
a response. There are two types of reinforcements i.e. positive reinforcement
and negative reinforcement. Positive reinforcement provides pleasant
experience or a feeling of satisfaction which contributes towards strengthening
of desirable responses or behaviours. The negative reinforcement results in
unpleasant experiences, which help in weakening the occurrence of undesirable
responsesorbehaviours.
The skill of reinforcement can increase the students involvement in
learning in a number of ways. The skill is used when the teacher reinforces
correct responses with a smile, when the teacher praises a good response or
encourages a slow learner. Such positive reinforces strengthen desirable
responseswhereasnegativereinforcessuchasscolding,punishingthestudents,
sarcastic remarks etc. weaken the undesirable response. However, the use of
more and more positive reinforcers maximizes pupils involvement of learning
rather than the use of negative reinforcers. Therefore, the skills of
reinforcement involve the teacher to use more and more positive reinforcers
and to decrease the use of negative reinforcers so that the pupils participation
ismaximized.
