About this blog:

Originally, I created this blog purely for the day-to-day use of my students, but as they grow up and I grow inexorably older, I have begun to design pages specifically for the use of other teachers and students as well. In the page menus under the header picture, you can locate many units with downloadable handouts, recommended activities, online quizzes, interactive crosswords and the like. Feel free to make use of anything that comes in handy!

All the very best from Roslyn Green

Teaching a Rat to Play Basketball

Complex behaviours can be taught through SHAPING - rewarding something that is a small step towards the behaviour you finally want the organism to display.

For instance, if I wanted my daughter to clean her room, I could reward her at first just for making her bed, then for picking up an item from the floor...This shaping process can take a while. My daughter and I are still working on it.

But thankfully the little rat in the video below is pretty quick on the uptake.
