create an original demonstration of classical conditioning. Think of an example in your life of how classical conditioning has produced a positive emotional response, such as happiness or excitement

Classical conditioning is a form of associative learning, learning produced by pairing of stimuli and responses in time and place. It contributes to likes and dislikes, emotional reactions, and reflex-like responses to things.

The major purpose of these final assignments in each module is to integrate the information you have learned throughout the current module and the course thus far, and to practice effective and professional communication of your ideas in various formats. This assignment requires you to apply the principles of classical conditioning and to video and write about the results.

Successful completion of this activity meets Module Outcome 4.

This activity aligns with the career competencies of oral communication and digital technology.

INSTRUCTIONS:

For this assignment, you will create an original demonstration of classical conditioning. Think of an example in your life of how classical conditioning has produced a positive emotional response, such as happiness or excitement. Now think of a negative emotional response, such as fear, anxiety, or anger. Choose one of these examples to share with us, and using the terms you’ve learned describe how classical conditioning produced this result.

You may choose to video a demonstration of your example and submit a brief description explaining your application. Alternatively, you may choose to create a voiceover multimedia presentation to demonstrate your example. In either instance, you need to orally describe the demonstration.

The situation you choose to demonstrate must be described in terms of classical conditioning. Within each description, identify or suggest the US, UR, CS, CR, as well as the principles likely to be at work.

It’s recommended that you briefly write out a script for yourself before you create the video or presentation. Scripts help you sound more focused and polished while keeping the information clear and concise.
