27. Child Development Theorists

28. HSCC CTEP Early Childhood POS Model Child Development Course Pilot School: Sterling High School, Somerdale, NJ Teacher: Carrin Bachowski

29. Why is Childhood Study Crucial? Research has shown that early childhood may be the most important life stage for brain development. A baby’s brain is about one quarter the size of an adults’. Scientists have found that babies’ brains develop in response to stimulation. – Arouses senses such as sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. Babies who are stimulated develop more quickly and have a more secure self-image. Child Development Theorists provide insight onto how children grow and learn.

30. What is a theory? A theory should allow us to predict and explain human behavior It should be stated in such a way that it can be shown to be false It must be open to scientific investigation

31. Child Development Theorists Although researches don’t always agree, scientific researchers have agreed upon the five following general rules. – Development is similar for each individual – Development builds upon earlier learning. – Development proceeds at an individual rate. – The different areas of development are interrelated. – Development is a lifelong process.

32. Psychoanalytic Theories: Freud’s Psychosexual Theory – Personality has 3 parts – There are 5 stages of psychosexual development – Oedipus complex allows child to identify with same-sex parent – Fixation is an unresolved conflict during a stage of development

33. Phallic Stage Child’s pleasure focuses on genitals Figure 2.1 Latency Stage Child represses sexual interest and develops social and intellectual skills Anal Stage Child’s pleasure focuses on anus Genital Stage A time of sexual reawakening; source of sexual pleasure becomes someone outside of the family Oral Stage Infant’s pleasure centers on mouth Freudian Stages 6 yrs to puberty Birth to 1½ yrs 1½ to 3 yrs Puberty onward 3 to 6 years

34. Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory: – There are 8 stages of psychosocial development – Each has a unique developmental task – Developmental change occurs throughout life span Key Points of Psychoanalytic Theories: – Early experiences and family relationships are very important to development – Unconscious aspects of the mind are considered – Personality is best seen as a developmental process

35. Erikson’s StagesDevelopmental Period Trust vs MistrustInfancy (first year) Autonomy vs shame & doubt Infancy (1 to 3 years) Initiative vs guiltEarly childhood (3 to 5 years) Industry vs inferiorityMiddle and late childhood Identity vs identity confusion Adolescence (10 to 20 years) Intimacy vs isolationEarly adulthood (20s, 30s) Generativity vs stagnation Middle adulthood (40s, 50s) Integrity vs despairLate adulthood (60s onward) Figure 2.2 Erikson’s Eight Life-Span Stages

36. Cognitive theories: Piaget’s cognitive developmental theory – Stresses conscious mental processes – Cognitive processes are influenced by biological maturation – Four stages of cognitive development in children – Assimilation and accommodation underlie how children understand the world, adapt to it, and organize their experiences

37. Preoperational Stage: The child begins to represent the world with words and images. These words and images reflect increased symbolic thinking and go beyond the connection of sensory information and physical action. Formal Operational Stage The adolescent reasons in more abstract idealistic and logical ways. Sensorimotor Stage: The infant constructs an understanding of the world by coordinating sensory experiences with physical actions: progressing from reflexive, instinctual action at birth to the beginning of symbolic thought toward end of the stage. Concrete Operational Stage: The child can now reason logically about concrete events and classify objects into different sets. Figure 2.3 11–15 years of age through adulthood Birth to 2 years of age 2 to 7 years of age 7 to 11 years of age Piaget’s Four Stages of Cognitive Development

38. Vygotsky’s sociocultural cognitive theory – Children actively construct their knowledge – Social interaction and culture guide cognitive development – Learning is based upon inventions of society – Knowledge is created through interactions with other people and objects in the culture – Less skilled persons learn from the more skilled Information-processing theory – Compares computers to the human mind – Thinking is information processing

39. Information is taken into brain Information gets processed, analyzed, and stored until use OUTPUT INPUT Information is used as basis of behaviors and interactions Information-Processing Theory math historyreligion geography science literature

41. Bandura’s Modeling/Imitation Child observes someone admired Child imitates behavior that seems rewarded

42. Urie Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory: – Environmental factors influence development – 5 environmental systems affect life-span development Eclectic theoretical orientation: – Selects features from other theories – No one theory has all the answers – Each theory can make a contribution to understanding life-span development

44. Multiple Intelligence Theory: Howard Gardner: – Human beings have eight different kinds of intelligences – Each person has their own unique combination – Helped teachers rethink the way they work with children

45. Other Influences on Development Heredity: – Blood type – eye color – hair color Environment: – Children also learn attitudes and beliefs from their environments

50. Introduction My goal is to prepare students for a career in the field of early childhood education. This course has focused on students understanding that children will grow and develop when provided with a positive learning environment.

51. To Accomplish this Goal: My first step is to break down and review the four areas of development and understand how children grow and master new skills: Physical Emotional Social Intellectual

52. Types of Early Childhood Programs We examine the various types of learning environments and services that are available for children that help them to develop. Students will begin to understand the importance of early intervention when teaching children. Head Start Private Public Schools Students will observe and examine the responsibilities in the early childhood field. Also, the personal characteristics of what determines a well rounded school and staff.

53. Observation and Participation Students begin to observe and document a child’s behavior and developmental milestones through classroom participation, assessments, anecdotal records, visual, and creating age appropriate lessons for the children. This was accomplished by putting students into small groups and assigning them a classroom. This taught students to co-work together and recognize everyone has a different approach to learning. Each month, students had a specific theme and lesson to follow: The four types of development: Physical Intellectual Social Emotional Students contact their teacher to inform them of their lesson. They were to understand the various needs that some of the children required. Students had an option to observe and participate with the specials needs classrooms. Each student created a portfolio that consists of materials they did throughout the school. It would include: lessons, photos, job shadowing assignment, examples of projects and activities they did. These items were to showcase their best work for a job interview or employment Observat io
