The document provides objectives and instructions for activities related to classical conditioning. The objectives are to describe Pavlov's original experiments and the key elements of classical conditioning, including conditioned stimulus, unconditioned stimulus, conditioned response, and unconditioned response. Students are instructed to create a podcast explaining these terms and simulate classical conditioning. As homework, students are asked to condition a virtual dog at a given website to experience classical conditioning firsthand.
The process of learning as elaborated by an online student of sociology.Learning is a gradual process that can be improved and stepped up once one understands all it entails.
Final project from the Coursera Course: Learning how to learn. Topics as: chunking, practice testing, distributed practice, and sleep has been covered.

2. Explain the difference between developmental
plasticity and adaptive plasticity.

3. Model Response
Explanation of the difference should refer to
developmental plasticity as primarily involving
changes in the brain’s neural structure in
response to experience during its growth and
development,
and
adaptive plasticity as primarily involving changes
occurring in the brain’s neural structure to
enable adjustment to experience, to
compensate for lost function and/or to
maximise remaining functions in the event of
brain damage.

4. Objectives
Describe Pavlov’s original experiments
Describe and apply the key elements of classical
conditioning (conditioned stimulus, unconditioned
stimulus, conditioned response, unconditioned response,
and neutral stimulus)

39. Activities
In groups of 3 create a podcast simulating classical
conditioning. The podcast must include and explain all the key
terms. (In red at the start of this wiki).
HOMEWORK TASK:
Now it is your turn to condition a dog just like Pavlov did all
those years ago. Go to the following site and have a crack at it!
