Activities

Now that you know what behaviorism is, why not get your hands dirty and do some experimenting like the great scientists. The following activities were selected in order to visually illustrate the theories of behaviorism, and to allow you the opportunity to learn first hand the principles and factors involving each theory. Through these activities, you will learn what makes each theory important, as well as how they differ from each other. Once you are done with the activities, you will be able to evaluate each theory and determine which theory is more practical.
