Brilio.net - Do you remember the film "Budi Pekerti"? This film tells the story of what life is like as a teacher during Covid-19.
One of the scenes shown is how the actor who is the teacher gives punishment to students who violate the rules that have been agreed upon by the students in their online class. One form of education is called behavioristic theory.
Behavioristic theory actually comes from psychology. This theory is an approach in psychology that emphasizes the importance of observing behavior that can be observed externally. In the educational context, this theory has significant implications in the role of teachers or teaching staff in developing effective learning strategies.
In the world of education, behavioristic theory plays a crucial role in shaping student behavior through an approach that focuses on stimulus and response. This theory believes that human behavior can be observed, measured and studied through interaction with the surrounding environment.
In schools, the application of behavioristic theory is the foundation for various learning and classroom management strategies aimed at increasing student discipline, responsiveness and obedience.
In class, teachers can pay attention to how students respond to lesson material, interact with classmates, and show discipline. By understanding these behaviors, teachers can adapt teaching methods to achieve better results.
So what are some examples of behavioristic theory that can be applied in schools? Reported by brilio.net from various sources, Tuesday (5/3), this is an example of the application of behavioristic theory in schools to make students more disciplined and responsive.

Rewards are a form of recognition of student achievements in learning. Providing awards to students has several benefits. Meanwhile, punishment is a consequence of student behavior that is not in accordance with applicable rules or norms.
The purpose of punishment is to shape student behavior to be better and reduce negative behavior. Giving praise or prizes to students who show positive behavior such as discipline, hard work, or obedience. On the other hand, providing consequences or sanctions for students who break the rules can be an effective example of applying this theory.

In the school environment, rules and regulations have a crucial role in shaping student behavior, creating order, and ensuring the effectiveness of learning. These rules are not just guidelines, but also a reflection of the values held by the school and surrounding community.
By following clear rules, students can interact with courtesy, maintain cleanliness, and build a conducive learning climate. Developing clear school rules and regulations with clear consequences if the rules are violated is very important. And also certainty of consequences can provide clear guidance to students about what to expect and what to avoid.

The learning model involves a systematic pattern or plan and functions as a guide for learning designers and teachers in planning and implementing learning activities. For example, teachers are good models by showing expected behavior, such as punctual attendance, good manners, and cooperation. Students can imitate this behavior through the learning process by example.
Positive reinforcement is the provision of gifts or rewards that reinforce desired behavior. The goal is to increase the likelihood that the behavior will be repeated in the future. An example is in class, the teacher gives praise to students who have completed their assignments well. This praise serves as positive reinforcement. Appreciation certificates or physical gifts can also be a form of positive reinforcement.

Develop a regular daily schedule and routine, including study schedules, breaks and extracurricular activities. Routines can help create a structured environment and support desired behavior.
Organize a class reward system, such as badges or positive stickers for each student's achievement or good behavior. Students can feel motivated to achieve more positive achievements.
Implement effective classroom management strategies, such as paying more attention to students who show positive behavior, and providing consistent and fair sanctions to students who break the rules.
Providing tokens or coins as a form of reward that can be exchanged for certain prizes or benefits. This creates an additional incentive for students to demonstrate positive behavior.
Develop consistent action procedures for students who break the rules, including steps such as warnings, consequences, and remedies. Consistency can help create predictability in student behavior.
Involves counseling and coaching for students who experience difficulties or exhibit undesirable behavior. This process can help identify the cause of the behavior and provide appropriate support.
