Albert Bandura is a renowned Canadian/American psychologist known for developing social learning theory and the concept of self-efficacy. He conducted influential experiments like the Bobo doll experiment. Bandura earned degrees from the University of British Columbia and University of Iowa. He had a long, distinguished career at Stanford University where he developed social cognitive theory. Bandura's work significantly influenced the fields of education, psychology, and the transition from behaviorism to cognitive psychology.

All things should be looked at from the perspective of behaviour.
And it doesnāt matter what is going on in the mind, it just matters what the behaviour
So there is no difference in the behaviourist mind between external behaviour and internal thoughts.

The social learning theory proposed by Albert Bandura has become perhaps the most influential theory of learning and development.
Though rooted in many of the basic concepts of traditional learning theory, Bandura believed that direct reinforcement could not account for all types of learning.
His theory added a social element, arguing that people can learn new information and behaviors by watching other people.
Known as observational learning (or modeling), this type of learning can be used to explain a wide variety of behaviors.
The presentation will help you understand the concepts given by Albert Bandura on Social Learning, which includes the
Bobo Doll Experiment and also its implications.

How to build self confidence - here is a slide show which takes you through 10 steps to grow and improve your self confidence and embrace the challenges in life
We all are pretty smart people, and we do know that like everything else even confidence wavers in our lives. The crude definition of self confidence is the belief in oneself that we can really do something. And this belief is put to test when things around us go completely wrong and we are still supposed to believe in ourselves, esp when no one else around us does.
No wonder it is tough and no wonder we seek assistance although we know that we have everything we need within ourselves to solve every simple problem. Today we are going to fixate on that problem which is bugging you from a while and develop the necessary confidence to get over it.
Here is a step by step procedure on how to build self confidence

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Ā
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Ā
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
ā¢ The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
ā¢ The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate āany matterā at āany timeā under House Rule X.
ā¢ The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

3. Life of Albert Bandura
Albert Bandura born December 4, 1925) is a psychologist who is the David Starr Jordan Professor
Emeritus of Social Science in Psychology atStanford University. For almost six decades, he has been
responsible for contributions to the field of education and to many fields of psychology,
including social cognitive theory, therapy and personality psychology, and was also influential in the
transition between behaviorism and cognitive psychology. He is known as the originator of social
learning theory and the theoretical construct of self-efficacy, and is also responsible for the
influential 1961 Bobo doll experiment.
Social learning theory is how people learn through observing others. An example of social learning
theory would be the students imitating the teacher. Self-efficacy is "the belief in oneās capabilities
to organize and execute the courses of action required to manage prospective situations." To
paraphrase, self-efficiacy is believing in yourself to take action. The Bobo Doll Experiment was how
Albert Bandura studied aggression and non-aggression in childrA 2002 survey ranked Bandura as
the fourth most-frequently cited psychologist of all time, behind B. F. Skinner, Sigmund Freud,
and Jean Piaget, and as the most cited living one. Bandura is widely described as the greatest living
psychologist, and as one of the most influential psychologists of all time.
In 1974 Bandura was elected to be the Eighty-Second President of the American Psychological
Association (APA). He was one of the youngest president-elects in the history of the APA at the age
of 48. Bandura served as a member of the APA Board of Scientific Affairs from 1968 to 1970 and is
well known as a member of the editorial board of nine psychology journals including the Journal
Personality and Social Psychology from 1963 to 1972. At the age of 82, Bandura was awarded the
Grawemeyer Award for psychology.
4. Early life
Bandura was born in Mundare, in Alberta, a small town of roughly four
hundred inhabitants, as the youngest child, and only son, in a family of six.
The limitations of education in a remote town such as this caused Bandura
to become independent and self-motivated in terms of learning, and these
primarily developed traits proved very helpful in his lengthy career.
Bandura is of Ukrainian descent.
Bandura's parents were a key influence in encouraging him to seek
ventures out of the small hamlet they resided in. The summer after
finishing high school, Bandura worked in the Yukon to protect the Alaska
Highway against sinking. Bandura later credited his work in the
northern tundra as the origin of his interest in human psychopathology. It
was in this experience in the Yukon, where he was exposed to a subculture
of drinking and gambling, which helped broaden his perspective and scope
of views on life.
Bandura arrived in the US in 1949 and was naturalized in 1956. He married
Virginia Varns (1921ā2011) in 1952 and they raised two daughters, Carol
and Mary.
5. Banduraās
Education and Academic Career
Bandura's introduction to academic psychology came about by a fluke; as a student with little to do
in the early mornings, he took a psychology course to pass the time, and became enamored of the
subject. Bandura graduated in three years, in 1949, with a B.A. from the University of British
Columbia, winning the Bolocan Award in psychology, and then moved to the then-epicenter of
theoretical psychology, theUniversity of Iowa, from where he obtained his M.A. in 1951 and Ph.D. in
1952.
Arthur Benton was his academic adviser at Iowa, giving Bandura a direct academic descent
from William James, while Clark Hull and Kenneth Spence were influential collaborators. During his
Iowa years, Bandura came to support a style of psychology which sought to investigate
psychological phenomena through repeatable, experimental testing. His inclusion of such mental
phenomena as imagery and representation, and his concept of reciprocal determinism, which
postulated a relationship of mutual influence between an agent and its environment, marked a
radical departure from the dominant behaviorism of the time. Bandura's expanded array of
conceptual tools allowed for more potent modeling of such phenomena as observational learning
and self-regulation, and provided psychologists with a practical way in which to theorize about
mental processes, in opposition to the mentalistic constructs of psychoanalysis and personology.
6. Social learning theory
Main article: Social learning theory
The initial phase of Bandura's research analyzed the foundations of human
learning and the willingness of children and adults to imitate behavior observed in
others, in particular, aggression.
He found that according to Social Learning theory, models are an important source
for learning new behaviors and for achieving behavioral change in institutionalized
settings.
Social learning theory posits that there are three regulatory systems that control
behavior. First, the antecedent inducements greatly influence the time and
response of behavior. The stimulus that occurs before the behavioral response
must be appropriate in relationship to social context and performers. Second,
response feedback influences also serve an important function. Following a
response, the reinforcements, by experience or observation, will greatly impact
the occurrence of the behavior in the future. Third, the importance of cognitive
functions in social learning. For example, for aggressive behavior to occur some
people become easily angered by the sight or thought of individuals with whom
they have had hostile encounters, and this memory is acquired through the
learning process.
7. Social Cognitive Theory
By the mid-1980s, Bandura's research had
taken a more holistic bent, and his
analyses tended towards giving a more
comprehensive overview of human
cognition in the context of social learning.
The theory he expanded from social
learning theory soon became known
as social cognitive theory.
8. QUOTES
ā¢ In order to succeed, people need a sense of self-efficacy, to struggle together with resilience to meet the inevitable
obstacles and inequities of life.
ā¢ Most of the images of reality on which we base our actions are really based on vicarious experience.
ā¢ Accomplishment is socially judged by ill defined criteria so that one has to rely on others to find out how one is
doing.
ā¢ People who believe they have the power to exercise some measure of control over their lives are healthier, more
effective and more successful than those who lack faith in their ability to effect changes in their lives.
ā¢ The content of most textbooks is perishable, but the tools of self-directness serve one well over time.
ā¢ People's judgments of their capabilities to organize and execute courses of action required to attain designated
types of performances.
ā¢ Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of
their own actions to inform them what to do. Fortunately, most human behavior is learned observationally
through modeling from observation.
ā¢ The Iowa Psychology Department was not Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. It was, indeed, an intellectually lively and
demanding place where major theoretical issues were pursued with a passion. It was refreshingly free of colorless
eclecticism.
ā¢ Psychology cannot tell people how they ought to live their lives. It can however, provide them with the means for
effecting personal and social change.ā
ā¢
Even the self-assured will raise their perceived self-efficacy if models teach them better ways of doing things.

10. Conclusion
Bandura's social learning theory contributes to students and teachers
within the field of education. Bandura applied his human agentice view
via social cognitive theory for the personal and social aspects of control
over moral values and conduct. In particular, he states that in the social
cognitive theory of the moral self, moral reasoning is linked to moral
action through affective self-regulatory mechanisms by which moral
agency is exercised. Bandura found interest in the role that human agency
plays when a society does not have safeguards set against particular
lapses in moral judgment that an individual finds justification, morally or
otherwise.
