Choose TWO of the Educational Psychology theories we have discussed in class:
Skinner – Operant Conditioning
Pavlov – Classical Conditioning
Vygotsky – Zone of Proximal Development
Piaget – Stages of Cognitive Development
Erickson – 8 Psychosocial Crises
Gilligan – Positions of Moral Development
Gardner – Multiple Intelligences
Bowlby – Attachment Theory
Bandura – Social Learning Theory
Compare and contrast the two psychological theories you have selected and how they are seen in the classroom (academic learning, behavior, and social/emotion). You should introduce and explain each of the two theories you’ve selected. You should then thoroughly compare and contrast the two theories. During your analysis, you need to consider how the theories can be explained with regards to: academic learning, behaviors, and social-emotional development. Be sure to cite at least three references (APA). You should also address how you may be able to use each of the two theories you’ve chosen to design classroom learning experiences (academic, behavioral, or social emotional)
