[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper/essay that addresses use of behaviorism in the college classroom. As Russell (2002) points out, educators search for the environment and teaching approach that is “ideal,” that is, which aids students in learning efficiently and effectively. One of the principal approaches to creating the “ideal” learning environment, which dominated much of the teaching that occurred in the twentieth century, is the behaviorist approach. This examination of behaviorism, first of all, defines this model of instruction, but then considers whether or not behaviorism is appropriate to today’s college classroom.

Campus Speech Codes
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. The quest for political correctness – both dubious and preclusive of all else – has reached an apex of complete irrationality when it comes to appeasing society's most vocal protestors, a wave of senselessness that has all but overtaken today's institutions of higher learning. College campus codes – "any behavior, verbal or physical, that stigmatizes or victimizes individuals on the basis of race, ethnic or national origin" (Kors et al, 1999, p. PG) – have overruled any logical approach to human interaction where prejudice – often perceived - is concerned, mandating instead the manner by which college students interact. This overt attempt to quell the presence of racially offensive exchanges has wholly bypassed its original objective, instead creating an entirely unprecedented – if not unwelcome – directive of how people are to relate to one another without offending a person's ethnic orientation in the process while disregarding everyone's innate right to freedom of speech. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
