Social Cognitivism

This week was very enjoyable. I loved spliting up into the groups and presenting the information. My favorite thing we learned about was modeling. Modeling is so important to use in the classroom. I didn't know there were so many parts that went with modeling. It plays such a large role in everyones live. In my classroom I think it is essential that I use only positive modeling. I will encourage my students to act the same and be positive. When students act up it is important that the other students understand that that behavior is not acceptable. Modeling can be bad if the modeled act is inappropriate. When students use bad language around other students it is very popular for others to catch on and repeat those words.
