Module 4 BASES AND POLICIES Flashcards
When did these start?
➢ interest in child development began
➢focused on detecting abnormalities
➢ certain theories discovered based on
this interest
Early 20th century
Domains of Child Development:
-size, strength, gross and
fine motor skills, senses and their
uses.
Physical:
Domains of Child Development
-intrapersonal
and interpersonal processes
Socio-Emotional
Domains of Child Development:
construction of thought
process
Cognitive
normal progression where children
grow by acquiring knowledge, skills,
and behavior called developmental
milestones at a certain time frame
Typical Development
-when development does not
follow the normal course.
-reaches a milestone
earlier or later than other children
his/her age

🐶 3 Common accepted principles
of child development:
1.Rate of development differs
2. Development occurs is a relatively
orderly process
3. Development takes place gradually
Who Created and
studied an account of how
children and youth gradually
become able to think logically
and scientifically. Swiss Scientist
Jean Piaget
➢refers to thinking and memory
processes
Cognition
➢It is how we process
information, make sense of the
world, and use that information to
interact with our environment.⚔
Cognitive development
What is Cognitive development?
(PMI)
How we process information, make sense of the world, use that info to interact with the environment.
Assimilation or accommodation?
process of
taking in new information
and incorporating it into
existing cognitive schemas
Assimilation
Assimilation or accommodation?
-when new information cannot be
easily fitted into existing
schemas, so the child must
modify or create a new
schema to incorporate the
new information
Accomodation
.
🏫🔵 four major stages of
cognitive development:
-Children learn about the world
through basic actions such as
sucking, grasping, looking, and
listening.
-Object Permanence
The Sensorimotor Stage
(Birth to 2 Years)
four major stages of
cognitive development:
-Begin to think symbolically and learn to use words
and pictures to represent objects.
-Egocentric
-Getting better with
language and thinking,
The Preoperational Stage
(2 to 7 Years)
four major stages of
cognitive development:
-Begin to think logically about concrete events
Example: the amount of liquid in a short, wide cup is equal to
that in a tall, skinny glass
The Concrete Operational Stage
(7 to 11 Years)
four major stages of
cognitive development:
-The adolescent or young adult begins to think
abstractly and reason about hypothetical
problems
-Use deductive logic, or reasoning from
a general principle to specific
information.
The Formal Operational Stage
(12 and Up - Adulthood)
Who did the Bobo Doll Experiment?
Albert Bandura
What is bandura’s bobo doll experiment?
The Bobo Doll experiment by Albert Bandura studied how children imitate aggression. When they saw adults act aggressively toward the doll, they copied the behavior, but they were less likely to do so if the adults were punished.
Four Principles of Social Learning?
armm
Attention: Perceive accurately
Retention: remember
Motor Reproduction: Convert symbolic to action
Motivational Process; positive reinforcement shit
Notes Only
Lev Vygostsky
Sociocultural Theory:
Students learn the most when
they’re in their ZPD.
Notes
Lev Vygostsky
Sociocultural Theory:
*Vygotsky created the
ZPD to?
-argue against the
use of academic,
knowledge-based tests as
a means to gauge intelligence.
-*Further develop Piaget’s
theory of children being
lone learners.
3 Stages of the ZPD:
-➢As a child gains understanding of
the new subject or skill, in the second stage, in which she
performs tasks without relying on
the person who was assisting her.
Unassisted Performance
3 Stages of the ZPD:
➢The first stage takes place when a
child is first learning a new subject
matter or skill and requires help from
someone
Assisted Performance
