1 What is child development? Child development is a field of study that seeks to understand all aspects of human growth and development from birth until adulthood.

2 What are the five areas of development? 1. Physical development refers to the changes in your body stature. Height, weight, bone development,and muscular development and coordination (motor skills) are examples of physical development

3 What are the five areas of development? 1. Physical 2. Intellectual development is the ability for the brain to receive, interpret and send messages. As your brain develops, you gain the ability to reason and use complex thought processes

4 What are the five areas of development? 1. Physical 2. Intellectual 3. Social development is the process of learning how to relate to and interact with others

5 What are the five areas of development? 1. Physical 2. Intellectual 3. Social 4. Emotional development is the process of learning to recognize and express one s feelings and learning to establish one s identity and individuality

6 What are the five areas of development? 1. Physical 2. Intellectual 3. Social 4. Emotional 5. Moral development is the process of gradually learning to base one s behavior on personal beliefs of right and wrong

7 Areas of Development George s mother measures his height and that of his brothers Kate and Linda play together every day at their preschool. Sometimes they let Tricia join in

8 Areas of Development In kindergarten the children learn the letters of the alphabet and the numbers from 1 to 10 When his parents divorced, Rick began to withdraw from other people and to write in a diary every night

9 Areas of Development After John took a block, Ernie objected, saying That s not fair. It s not your turn! Edie loved doing jigsaw puzzles

10 What are the five characteristics of development? 1. Development is similar for everyone Children all over the world go through the same stages of development in approximately the same order. Babies lift their head before they can lift their bodies, sit up, crawl, stand, walk and run.

11 What are the five characteristics of development? 1. Development is similar for everyone 2. Development builds on earlier learning - development follows an orderly sequence, a step-by-step pattern. A new skill is developed upon the foundation of an existing skill. Example learning multiplication one must understand the concept of numbers and how to do addition

12 What are the five characteristics of development? 1. Development is similar for everyone 2. Development builds on earlier learning 3. Development proceeds at an individual rate each child is an individual and the style and rate of growth will differ from one child to another A child who learns to walk/talk - early/late

13 What are the five characteristics of development? 1. Development is similar for everyone 2. Development builds on earlier learning 3. Development proceeds at an individual rate 4. The different areas of development are interrelated (Physical, Intellectual, Social, Emotional,& Moral) Development of a task can not be taught in isolation. Learning a new task involves (in most cases) the interaction of the five areas of development

14 What are the five characteristics of development? 1. Development is similar for everyone 2. Development builds on earlier learning 3. Development proceeds at an individual rate 4. The different areas of development are interrelated 5. Development is continuous throughout life Development does not stop at a certain age. Development is sometimes rapid and at times it is much slower. We all continue to develop in many ways throughout life.

15 What are the two influences of development? 1. Heredity (nature) is the passing on of characteristics that are physically inherited from previous generations. (Genetic makeup, DNA) 2. Environment (nurture) is the people, places, and things that surround and influence an individual

16 What are the five stages of development? Childhood (Birth to 10 years) Adolescence- (11 to 17 years) Young Adulthood- (18 to 30 s) Middle Life-(40 s to 60 s) Late Life-(70 s on)

17 What is a theory? A theory is a framework that organizes and gives meaning to ideas and actions, and to guide decisions.

18 What is a theory? Theories are tested by research to provide confirmation and suggest practices for implementation

19 What is a theory? Theories help us organize the complexity of development into manageable ideas that describe, explain, and predict behavior in young children

20 Theories Currently there are three major theories to explain how children grow and develop

21 Theories Heredity (nature) - Development is a result of the child s innate biological makeup. Growth and development becomes a process of waiting and watching as the child follows his/her biological programming

22 Theories Environment (nurture) Development is a result of environmental influences on the child. The child comes into the world waiting for experience to influence what will become of him/her.

23 Theories Interactional (nature & nuture) Development is influenced both by biological heredity (nature) and environment (nurture), as well as by the dynamic interplay between the two
