UNIT 6 NOTES Learning- long lasting change in behavior due to experience (relatively permanent change in an organism?s behavior due to experience) Association- Learning to associate two events We learn by association Our minds naturally connect events that occur in sequence Aristotle 2000 years ago John Locke and David Hume 200 years ago Associative Learning learning that two events occur together two stimuli a response and its consequence Classical Conditioning Ivan Pavlov Studied Digestion of Dogs. Dogs would salivate before they were given food (triggered by sounds, lights etc?) Dogs must have LEARNED to salivate This is passive learning (automatic?learner does NOT have to think). First thing you need is a unconditional relationship.

To employ Thorndike?s work would be most wise for a first year teacher, such as Mrs. Altier. By recognizing that humans are driven by their native needs and learned wants, Thordike?s work could help her to develop a system of rewards that kept her students motivated and engaged. By creating an environment that provided numerous opportunities for reward, she would encourage both positive responses of increased studiousness and motivation. If she were to not reward adverse behavior, ostensibly, that behavior would decrease. Though she would have to punish bad behaviors, by necessity, Thorndike?s work would show her that excessive punishment would lead to more bad behavior though this runs contrary to the accepted view of discipline.

Think of an animal or plant that has shown natural selection and diversity through fragmentation besides the finches described in the textbook. Describe the diversification for that species.

Extinction
The Selection in evolution means generation of new biological species, usually by the division of a single species in two or more two specis of genetical difference. The rate of change in diversity depends on the rate at which taxa originate and become extinct. The number of taxa, N, changes over time due to origination and extinction. These events are analogous births or deaths of individual organisms in a population.
