Cognitive perspective is when knowledg is learned and becomes used and applied in everyday situation. Changes in knowledge can then make changes in behavior. Behavioral orientations are similar in that it views reinforcement as an important aspect of learning. However, cognitive perspective uses reinforcement as communication with students to show what will happen if the behaviors are repeated. Behavioral orientations use reinforcement to strengthen responses.
Essentially, you have to let your students know what you don't like and how to fix it so that bad behaviors don't continue. You also have to tell your students what you DO like so that good behaviors do continue. Both are equally important. Reinforcement is an essential part of seeing the results in a classroom that you want.
