2. Bandura conducted an experiment
with the BoBo doll.
A child observed an adult kicking
and throwing the doll in a room
The child then repeated these
violent actions when placed in a
room with the doll.
3. The study of how we acquire our behaviors
based on our observation of others
5. People acquire behaviors first through
observation
Children will watch a behavior and then mimic
it
We have self-efficacy, a personal observation of
our own perceived ability
6. The amount of attention that we pay to those
that are modeling a specific behavior
Our retention of the information we observe
Our reproduction of the information. “Monkey
see monkey do.”
Our motivation. Having a good reason to
imitate the actions we observe.
7. Under this theory the teacher
should model acceptable
social behavior
Speaking respectfully to
students
Scaffolding to demonstrate
different activities for
children
Under this theory children
imitate the behavior that is
displayed to them. When
they see an adult or older
child act in one way they often
copy that action.
8. For my future teaching I think this theory is
important.
It is obvious that children replicate the
behavior that they see.
It is important to model good socially
acceptable behavior so that your students will
inherit the same behavior.
