Vicarious Learning in the Classroom• Allocation of all resources• Allows for uninterrupted learning • Provides motivation the less skilled workers
Student and Teacher Efficacy• Student self efficacy is strongly related to critical classroom variables• The higher the self efficacy the more will and desire a student will posses. • The lower self efficacy the less likely a student will strive to meet the goals
and standards that are set out for them.
• Teacher efficacy• Those teachers that are more self efficacious are more likely to give praise • The teachers who aren’t lack self efficacy will give up on students in a similar
fashion to how students will give up on work.
Critiques of Social Cognitive Theory• The theory is too broad• The findings are still preliminary • Cannot be directly observed • Only focused on the now instead of the lifespan
