Stockton High School psychology teacher Amy Hawley used her dog, Penny to demonstrate to students classical and operant conditioning. Classical conditioning and operant conditioning are both different forms of learning that are used in training animals. Classical conditioning uses stimulus and response, which is similar to teaching a dog tricks such a sit, down and roll over. Operant conditioning uses reinforcement to encourage the behavior.
