classical conditioning

This week in class we learned about classical conditioning. I really enjoy this chapter, partially because I find it somewhat simple to understand. I was looking on YouTube at a few different classical conditioning videos and I found a clip from the office. Jim is conditioning Dwight. Every time the computer makes a noise, Jim offers Dwight an altoid.  Eventually when Dwight hears the computer make a noise he automatically sticks his hand out for an altoid, even though Jim didn't offer him one. The whole concept of conditioning amazes me.
