REINFORCING LEARNING WITH CHANGE Resources Discussion Participation Scoring Guide. Capella Graduate Online Writing Center – APA Style and Formatting.

Reflecting on the earlier discussion of the use of cognitive performance-enhancing drugs by someone with a healthy brain, do you think that expectations about memory, learning, and problem-solving can affect cognitive performance?

Think of an area of your personal or professional behavior that you would like to change. Use your understanding of intelligence and metacognition to help you make some reinforcements for change in this area. Describe a learning experience related to your behavioral target area. Make sure to elaborate on the learning goals and any associated desired changes in behavior. Identify reinforcers you would use to help stay on track.
