Future Indiana Museum "A behaviorist dream"

Future Indiana “A behaviorist learning Experience”

I went to the Indiana state museum with my friend and her two daughters. The kid’s ages are 12 and 7 years old. My friend and her daughters have visited the museum on several previous occasions and they continue to go to see the latest exhibitions.

The whole museum is interactive and is a behaviorist dream come true. Several gizmos or computers would suit the individual needs from the young to the adults. One of the activities I did was located within the Future Indiana exhibition. This exhibition was located in a separate room where you sat down in front of a futuristic screen and you had a console in front of you. The screen played a scenario around a futuristic farm family. The console displayed a question with two answer options and you had to answer the question. Based on the majority of the audience responses, the family scenario developed. The behaviorist approach in this exhibition was around the Operant Stimulus (Question on your console) > Response (A second screen displayed the response rates) and the contingent stimulus (The family behavior and story was modified based on the answers).
