  c. a body of rehearsed knowledge.
  d. a combination of rehearsed and procedural knowledge.

Ques. 2

Mrs. Barber announces to her third graders at the beginning of math, Congratulations, James. Because you've been so good about bringing your math work all week, I'm giving you this certificate, and she handed James a certificate, which said:
 
  JAMES IS A MATH WHIZ. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR CONSCIENTIOUS MATH WORK.
  Mrs. Barber
 
  Identify one concept from behaviorism and two concepts from social cognitive theory that Mrs. Barber is attempting to apply with her comment and this certificate. Explain.
 
  What will be an ideal response?
