-Learning was activity that occurs inside the mind and can be inferred only by observered behaviors.
-behaviors shaped by "contigencies of reinforcrement" to shape desired responses: positive, negative, and punishiment
- Technology: computer games that give direct feedback for positive/negative results when praciting a skill ie. number munchers, earn points when you get a problem right, when you get it wrong your alien starts to die; Using "Senteos" within the classroom that vibrate for Q & A -
