This article talks about sims and how they sometimes limp along in games and relate that to the students in the classroom. I believe that this article actually describes behaviorism. One part of the article talks about people wanting to change but they do not know how. People are conditioned to do things and once they learn how to do it a certain way they can not do it another way. We do not know how to change and even if we do then we do not fully change. The part of us that we are trying to change will always be a part of us.
