  • A.teaching
  • B.instructional
  • C.behavioural
  • D.media

Answer: C

The key's answer is behavioural technology.

Behavioural technology applies the principles of behavioural psychology, worked out in laboratory experiments such as Skinner's operant conditioning studies with rats and pigeons, to the modification of human behaviour, including teacher behaviour. Reinforcement, shaping and contingency management all come from these experiments, and microteaching and interaction analysis grew from the same approach.

Teaching technology draws on philosophy, sociology and science more broadly. Instructional technology is concerned with designing instruction and learning materials. Media technology refers to the hardware and software of communication. Only behavioural technology is rooted directly in laboratory experiments in psychology.
