In this educational blog I will be providing information about the B.F Skinner foundation. The Foundation mission is to promote the science that B.F skinner has founded. Because the Foundation promotes the science that B.F Skinner it allows the world to be humane. According to the foundation website the way the foundation provided a more humane world is by”replacing coercive techniques with positive procedures”.
The foundation website provides a lot of information about B.F Skinner experiments and life experiences. One of the experiments that I find to be most interesting is the pigeon project. The way that Skinner came about working with pigeon is because in 1944 the World War II was in full action. Skinner wanted to help with the war, the airplanes and bombs were common in this year but there were no missiles. Skinner thought that he could train pigeons to guide bombs.
The foundation website provides a lot of information about B.F Skinner life achievements, his family and his work as a Psychologist. The website also allows you to get involved and help the world.
