[Nicole Ni]

My beliefs of which is better and more important to learning is both.

[Ashlyn Reynolds]

Operant conditioning and Nurture are more important to learning. People are products of their environments.  It is very important to teach people the right things and to teach people that they don't have to be like everyone around them.

[Ashlyn Reynolds]

Why do you belive that they are the same? I think one has more influence than the other.

[Samantha Nuytten]

I think nurtue v.s nature is better. They have equal parts in eachother to make them possibal to function well.

[Kourtney Lams]

i think that the Operant conditioning is important because you have to help people to be different from each other and not to respond from an enivromental things around them

[Nicole Ni]

You think operant and classical conditioning is better?

I can surely say that these 2 videos felt like forever to watch. I have came to the conclusion that Nature vs. Nurture is the best way to go as far as it being best and more important to learning. I say this because Like the guy in the video said, they go hand in hand. As far as the nurture aspect of it he said that a person isn't necessarily determined by his genes. His actions are usually determined by the environment in which they are in (nurture part of it). 

[Laila Malki]

In response to ashlyn's statement I can see where she is coming from when you say that people are products of their environments.  It is very important to teach people the right things and to teach people that they don't have to be like everyone around them. I feel that people must learn these things when they are really young.

[Laila Malki]

In response to Kourtney comment: i too feel like she is correct because if a person in not different then what makes them different from the world. If they go about their lives just being and doing the same as everyone else than that is not a life to live. We must be unique and different and not fall under peer pressure.

[Brandi Duda]

I feel that operant and nurture are more important for learning. people have to learn what things they should and should not do in their enivronment

I think they are the same because nature is something we do automaticy for example (non school related is the best example i can give) if a child did somthing bad, we correct the problem yell a little bit, as if teaching them the diffrence between right and wrong. Teachers nature is to help a student know what the did wrong. Nurture for example if that child were hungrey you as a person would give them food. Teachers nurture students in helping them with sopport menatlly and confadence wise. You cant really go wiht out eather with out them both being unstable.

 After watcjing both videos, one may clearly see that niether is more important.  One's natural environment and one's surroundings both play a key role in the development of his or her life.  Family is a higly important factor in success.  When one has a close and supportive family, he or she MAY do well.  Some individuals come from great homes and get addicted to drugs and become overly consumed by worldly occurrences.  Others who may be more self-motivated can become grand individuals.  Neither is more important, but one without the other can have detrimental effects on an individual.  He or she must have faith and confidence in himself or herself.  Otherwise the environment that the person is in, is meaningless.

My beliefs are that nature vs. nature is more important to learning.

[Ceangelo Smith]

But the enviorment of people can be an effect in a negative way to someones learning.

[Eric Rutherford]

I believe in nature vs. nurture because people grow up and become what they see around them, if they aren't guided by a path other than where he or she lives.

[Eric Rutherford]

Why do you belive that they are the same? I think one has more influence than the other.

[Eric Rutherford]

i concur because people are products of there environments

[Ryan Pellerito]

i think that you learn a lot more from nature, but when you are nurtured you learn the information quicker. But with nature you are able to learn from experience and you earn the knowledge rather than someone giving it toy ou
