This chapter was a lot more interesting then the other chapters in my opinion because it was on how we learned. It told me what steps to take to learn or even teach someone how to learn something new.
Classical Conditioning is something that you remember after its been done to you repeatedly. There is a stimuli followed by something good or bad, when that stimuli is repeated over and over again you remember when that stimuli happens your will trigger that something that happened either good or bad. I know I'm not good at explaining things, so I'll give you an example. When an owner of a dog abuses their dog by hitting it with their hand on the dog's head, the dog will then connect the hand going over its face to being hit. When someone else just wants to pet the dog and be nice to it, the dog will flinch afraid it will get hit again. The hand going up in the air over its face triggered the memory that the hand is the thing that hits and hurts it.
When I see this in real life, which I have before, I can't believe it. I just want to take the dog away from their owner and keep it for myself where I know it wont get hurt and abused again. I love animals and I HATE seeing them getting hurt by others.
