What is the Question?

The behaviourist approach  is important in teaching and learning as it emphasises that if experiences are repeated, learning is more effective. It puts emphasis on external stimuli that might encourage a teacher to teach creatively to reinforce learning.

The behaviourist approach is important as it can help a teacher tailor their approach by reinforcing certain behaviour in learners that improves learning.
