When Mrs. Beal repeated the direction for a 3rd time that students are to be opening Google Classroom to the class, although directed at Eric, he then initiated the task and remained focused for 5 intervals. Within these five minutes of on-task behavior Mrs. Beal checked in with Eric and engaged with him as he started plotting the coordinates. During the following 15 intervals Eric did not demonstrate on-task behavior for the duration of the interval. If Eric was off-task for even one second of the interval he was marked off-task for the entire interval. …show more content…

Eric was seen looking around the classroom and appeared aware of adult proximity to him and their view of his computer. One point in the observation Eric repositioned himself and computer screen to be turned away from the observer. As the class progressed Eric started to quickly flip back and forth between class webpage and basketball pictures. Eric appeared to be aware of the risks of being caught by adults but appeared to want to switch his background photo. During interval 17 the para professional commented to Eric that he could wait to get home and look up basketball information as the day was an early dismissal.

    I used partial interval recording to measure the off task behavior since it occurs so quickly and it is hard to catch it or simply count it. My operational definition was superb. It was clear and I could easily observe it when Oscar displayed the behavior. However, at times, I was confused on whether Oscar was off task or whether he was internalizing/ processing information the teachers were giving him. Overall, I would not change this definition because it helps me measure and easily absorb the off task behavior.

  • Psychology Reflection

    Psychology is defined as “the scientific study of the mind and behavior” (Introduction to Psychology, 2015). Psychology provides an overview of biology and behavior, sensation and perception, learning, memory, intelligence, language, motivation, emotion, abnormal psychology, and therapy (PSY 102 Course Syllabus, 2018, pg 1). Because psychology allows for a better understanding of how the mind and body work, this knowledge can be beneficial for any field of study or career. The theoretical and practical understanding of the basics of psychology can help with decision-making, critical thinking, stress management, time management, better understanding of others, improving communication, and even achieving goals and objectives, all components that allow someone to be more successful throughout their life. Throughout this course I hope to gain a greater understanding of historical and theoretical perspectives of human behavior and development (PSY 102 Course Syllabus, 2018, pg 2).
