One of the best modules on here. Although it was done 50 years ago, Skinner’s thoughts and ideas on education are as relevant and thought-provoking as ever. Very useful!
This was AMAZING! Informative and also scary that we still have yet to implement what Skinner discussed to improve our educational system.
Amazing and timeless perspective. Schools are still working toward much of this!
What a treat getting to watch this interview was! As a BCBA working in a school, it was fascinating to see BF talking about the same issues I am facing in motivating both students and teachers, some 50 years later.
Very rare and informative video of the pristine B.F Skinner. Thank you, CEUniverse!
