A. When Behaviorism is
Beneficial for Learners
Benefits • Examples
• Gives students positive and • Students receive a
negative reinforcements
reward for correct
answers or positive
• Students can be motivated behavior
through rewards
Behaviorism Cognitivism
• Positive • My students all were
reinforcement/engage reached at learning
ment for correct stage/level
answers • I scaffolded and
• Presented a problem chunked/broke down for
with one right or wrong students
answer • I modeled how to do 3
• We repeatedly went digit problems explicitly
over the steps to • I coached students on
solving a 3 digit word how to properly solve 3

Lesson Plan
Adaptations/Modifications
I could adapt this lesson plan This is beneficial because it
to follow along the allows students to have a
constructivism theory. more meaningful experience
and allows them to “lead”
I would do this by instead of their own learning.
giving them pre created word
problems I could have them
I would give them an example
make their own word
of a song/chant.
problems. They could use
their own names, interests Ex. More on the floor go next
and make if fun and more door; more on the top no need
memorable! They would to stop
remember it forever!
Constructivism
• I believe the most beneficial
lesson plan is blend all three
approaches. I want to take
nuggets and aspects from each
theory and incorporate them into
this lesson. I know this will be a
challenge but I believe I can pull
D. from each aspect.
Most
Beneficial • I think this is best because
Lesson Plan students will have first a modeled
example from the teacher and be
and shown the “right” and “wrong’ way
Justification to solve 3 digit problems
(Behaviorism) , then they would
use their schema (Cognitivism)
then apply what they’ve learned
with a partner and create their
own word problem!
(Constructivism)
E. Benefits of Following a Design
Theory
Students are told what they need to work on and are given immediate
feedback (Provide feedback)
Students are given real world examples and lessons are made
applicable to real world situations (Enhance retention and transfer)
Students may miss the “gain attention” aspect
if they come into class late or are just
disinterested in the topic which can make it
difficult to engage a student
Limitations
of Gagne’s Providing learning guidance may not
Events be applicable if students are not
ready to do it alone
