  • An Introduction to Learning Todd M
    An Introduction to Learning Todd M. Gureckis ([email protected]) http://smash.psych.nyu.edu/ Fridays 12:30pm-2:30pm, Rm 469 Overview: Learning is a critical component of adaptive behavior in animals and humans. This course will expose students to key concepts, theories, and experimental paradigms for studying human learning. The goal is to provide an integrative view of the area that crosses both classic approaches (e.g., classical conditioning, instrumental learning) as well as modern issues (e.g., cognitive neuroscience of learning, language learning, social learning, computational approaches). Special attention will be given to exploring what is known about the neural substrates of learning and memory, as well as computational and mathematical theories. In addition, the class is oriented toward a understanding of the evolution of ideas about learning in the field. Students will leave the course as sophisticated consumers of learning research and be able to apply learning concepts directly to their own research. This course fulfills part of the introductory “core” cognition requirements for the NYU psychology program. As such there will be a series of exams throughout the semester that assess mastery of the key concepts. Grading: Active class participation (15%) and homeworks and assignments based on readings (15%), two exams (each worth 35%). Course Website: Bookmark and check back often for announcements and links to the readings: http://smash.psych.nyu.edu/courses/fall10/learning Textbook: Learning and Memory: From Brain to Behavior by Gluck, Mercado, and Myers (should be available at the NYU Bookstore). The Gluck text is geared at a slightly introductory level but provides a useful “frame” within which to structure our dialog this semester.

  • Child Development a Practical Introduction
    Child Development a practical introduction 00-Crowley-Prelims.indd 3 12/18/2013 3:49:49 PM 1 Introduction to Child Development Why you should read this chapter This book focuses on the study of child development from birth to 8 years. From our own observations of children, we are all aware of the tremendous changes that take place during this period: in the space of a few years, not only do children grow in the physical sense, they also acquire skills in language and communication, the capacity to think and reason about the world, and skills in social interaction. The study of child development is not just fascinating in its own right; knowledge gained from studying development can also impact on many practical issues regarding the care, education and wellbeing of children. This book presents an overview of research and theory in various aspects of child development, but before we look at these, this chapter and Chapters 2 and 3 will aim to provide some basic context for the study of development as a whole. In this chapter we will look at some basic issues in child development and some of the broad theoretical approaches to understanding development. (Continued) 1 01_Crowley_Ch-01.indd 1 12/18/2013 3:49:53 PM 2 Child Development: A Practical Introduction (Continued) By the end of this chapter you should • be aware of the various domains of development that are of interest to researchers in this field • understand some basic issues in the study of development including the role of nature versus nurture, and whether development proceeds in a continuous or discontinuous manner • be aware of the different theoretical approaches to development including psychoanalytic, learning theory, cognitive-developmental, ethological and evo- lutionary psychology, and bioecological approaches • have a basic understanding of some specific theories from the various approaches.

  • The Significance of Behavioural Learning Theory to the Development of Effective Coaching Practice
    International Journal of Evidence Based Coaching and Mentoring Vol. 3, No. 1, Spring 2005 Page 18 The significance of behavioural learning theory to the development of effective coaching practice. Dave Peel Hartnell Training Ltd. UK, email: [email protected] Abstract This paper outlines the potential significance of behaviourism and its impact on developing effective coaching practice. Its purpose is threefold: firstly, it addresses the issues resonating from the critique of behaviourism, which focuses on its limited understanding and application within the coaching community. This is interesting given the fact that many coaches and coaching manuals use these techniques almost without realising their rootedness within the behaviourist tradition. Secondly, the argument is made that if behaviourism is to be used in an informed and ethical way then an in depth understanding of its theoretical underpinnings and application as a learning theory is essential. To this end the historical development, critique and adaptation of behaviourism is outlined in order to develop this understanding within the wider coaching community. Finally, the argument is put forward that only through adopting an integrated approach to coaching practice development can the coaching discipline move forward upon a sound theoretical base. The areas that will establish this theoretical base are also highlighted in the future research that needs to be undertaken. Key Words: behaviourism, learning theory, coaching practice, role modelling behaviour. Introduction In this paper, I outline the potential significance of behaviourism and its impact on developing effective coaching practice. In the first part of the paper, I attempt to answer criticisms of behaviourist techniques by authors such as Berglas (2002), who contend that their use is dangerously limited by a lack of understanding of their development or subsequent appropriate application.

Learning — changes in behaviour because of experiences (excluding changes due to fatigue, injury, or drug effects) — is at the centre of this approach. The study of classical and operant conditioning in behaviourism has further augmented the understanding of learning. During the development of psychology, United States of America in twentieth century witnessed the substantial support received by behaviourism as a system that defines psychology as the study of behaviour.
