LESSON 1
Human Development: Meaning, Concepts and Approaches

What are the objectives of this lesson?

At the end of this lesson, you are expected to be able to:
• define human development in your own words;
• draw some principles of human development; and
• distinguish two approaches to human development.

Overview of the topic

Human development refers to the biological and psychological development of
the human being throughout the lifespan. It consists of the development from infancy,
childhood, and adolescence to adulthood.
It is a pattern of movement that begins at conception and continues through the life span of
a well human being. Also it includes growth and decline. The human development can be
positive or negative. Growth deals with quantitative changes while development deals with
qualitative changes. Development is relatively orderly. Development has proximodistal pattern
that deals with the development from inward to upward. Another pattern is the cephalocaudal
pattern in which the development is from head to toe and from top to bottom. Development
also takes place gradually. The pattern of development is more likely be similar, the outcome
of development process and the rate of development are vary among
individuals. Development as a process is complex because it is the product of biological,
cognitive and socio-emotional process. The biological process is a physical change. The
cognitive process is about knowledge, thoughts, and language. The socio-emotional is a process
that focuses on dealing with people. The human development has five (5) different approaches.
It includes life-long, multi-dimensional, plastic, contextual and involves growth, maintenance
and regulation. The life-span of a human development occurs al throughout the life-span of an
individual. The development never stops until death. The traditional occurs human
development that shows extensive change from birth to adolescence, little or no change in
adulthood and decline in the late old age. The life-long development does not end by
adulthood and no development stage dominates the development. The multi-dimensional
consists of biological, cognitive and socio-emotional dimensions. The plastic development is
possible throughout the life-span. The contextual development, are individuals that can adopt


changing beings in a changing world. Development and learning result from a dynamic and
continuous interaction of biological maturation and experience.

Principles of Human Growth and Development:
1. Development is continuous.
2. Development is gradual.
3. Development is sequential.
4. Rate of development varies person to person.
5. Development proceeds from general to specific.
6. Most traits are correlated in development.
7. Growth and development is a product of both heredity and environment.
8. Development is predictable.
9. Development brings about both structural and functional changes.
10. There is a constant interaction between all factors of development.

LESSON 2

The Stages of Development and Development Tasks


• define developmental tasks in your own words ;
• identify developmental stages of learners in different curriculum levels;
• describe the developmental tasks in each stage; and
• state for yourself how these developmental tasks affect your role as a facilitator of
learning.


A developmental task is a task that arises at or about a certain period in life, unsuccessful
achievement of which leads to inability to perform tasks associated with the next period or
stage in life.

The Stages of Development and Developmental tasks
Prenatal period
(from conception to birth)
- it involves tremendous growth from a single
cell to an organism complete with brain and
behavioral capabilities.
Infancy
(from birth to 18 – 24 months) - a time extreme dependence on adults. Many psychological
activities are just to beginning – Language, symbolic thought, sensorimotor coordination
capabilities.



Early childhood
(end of infancy to 5-6 years (grade 1) -these are the preschool years. Young children learn to
become more self sufficient and to care for themselves, develop school readiness skills and
spend many hours in play with peers.
Concept of developmental tasks
In each stage of development a certain task or tasks are expected of every each individual.
Robert Havighurst defines developmental task as one that “arises at a certain period in our life,
the successful achievement of which leads to happiness and success with later tasks while
failure leads to unhappiness, social disapproval, and difficulty with later tasks.” (Havighurst,
1972)
The developmental tasks (Santrock, 2002)
(6-11 years of age, the elementary school years) – The fundamental skills of reading, writing
and arithmetic are mastered.
• Prenatal period
• Infancy
• Early childhood
• Middle and late childhood
• Adolescence
• Early adulthood
• Middle adulthood
• Late adulthood
Early adulthood
(from late teens or early 20’s lasting through the 30’s) – It is a time of establishing personal and
economic independence, career development, selecting a mate, learning to live with someone
in an intimate way, starting a family and rearing children.
Late adulthood
(60’s and above) It is a time for adjustment to decreasing strength and health, life review,
retirement, and adjustment to new social rules.
Adolescence
Middle adulthood
– (10 – 12 years of age ending up to 18 – 22 years of age) Begins with rapid physical changes.
Middle and late childhood
(40 to 60 years of age ) – it is a time of expanding personal and social involvement and
responsibility; of assisting the next generation in becoming a competent and mature
individuals.

Photo Essay and Reflections

Input for the Task:

What is a Photo Essay?

A photographic essay is a form of visual storytelling, a way to present a narrative
through a series of images. A great photo essay is powerful, able to evoke emotion and
understanding without using words. A photo essay delivers a story using a series of
photographs and brings the viewer along your narrative journey.

A photo essay tell a story in pictures, and there are many different ways to style your
own photo essay. With wide range of topics to explore, a photo essay can be thought-provoking,
emotional, funny, unsettling, or all of the above, but mostly, they should be unforgettable.

Task Design:

This activity intends to determine the students' knowledge on child and adolescent
development as well as the factors that affect the progress of development of the learners
and shall include appropriate pedagogical principles applicable for each developmental level
through photo essay and reflection. The students are guided by the given rubrics below.

Task Objectives:

1. Make a photo essay of Human Stages of Development.

2. Write your reflection.

Materials Needed:

• Laptop and Android phone with internet connection
• Any kind of camera or cellphone with camera

LESSON 3

Issues on Human Development

What is the objective of this lesson?

• take an informed stand/position on the three issues on development.


There are three theoretical issues in human development; nature versus nurture,
continuity versus stages and stability versus change.

The first issue is nature versus nurture. This controversy goes back to the ancient Greeks. Early
philosophers believed that at birth our minds are a 'blank state' and that one's environment
determines the messages that will be written on the slate. Naturists believe that human
behavior and development are governed by automatic, genetically predetermined signals in
maturation. There is a favorable period after birth called a critical period when the organism's
exposure to stimuli or experiences produce proper development. Nurturists argue that
development occurs by learning through observation and experience. For example, a child
would learn behaviors by watching his or her parents or other close family members.
The second issue is continuity versus discontinuity. Continuity proposes that development is
continuous, with new abilities, skills and knowledge gradually added at a relatively uniform rate.
It also suggests that adult thinking and intelligence differ from a child's. For example, adults
have more verbal skills than children. Stage theorists suggest that development occurs at
different rates that vary from little change to rapid, abrupt change. Stage theories include:
Piaget's theory of cognitive development, Erikson's psychosocial theory of development, and
Kohlberg's theory of moral development.
The third and final issue is stability versus change. Stability proposes that individuals maintain
their personal characteristics from childhood to adulthood. They emphasize that one can tell
what kind of character an individual will have by the characteristics they display during
childhood. Psychologists who emphasize change disagree entirely. They believe that a child's
personality and characteristics bear little resemblance to the characteristics present in
adulthood.

LESSON 4
Research in Child and Adolescent Development



• demonstrate appreciation of the role of teachers as consumers and producers of
developmental research; and
• read researches on child and adolescent development.


Impact of Teachers’ Research Involvement on Teachers

Research itself has proven that teachers have everything to gain and nothing to lose
when they get involved in the research process. Evidence suggest that:

1. teachers who have been involved in research may become more reflective, more critical
and analytical in their teaching, and more open and committed to professional
development.
2. participating in teacher research also helps teachers become more deliberate in their
decision-making and actions in the classroom.
3. teacher research develops the professional dispositions of lifelong learning, reflective,
and mindful teaching, and self-transformation.
4. engaging in teacher research at any level may lead to rethinking and reconstructing what
it means to be a teacher or teacher educator and consequently, the way teachers relate
to children and students.
5. teacher research has the potential to demonstrate to teachers and prospective teachers
that learning to teach is inherently connected to learning to inquire.

Teacher involvement in the conduct of teacher research shows a shift from thinking
about teacher research as something done to teachers to something done by teachers.

LESSON 5
Freud’s Psychoanalytic Theory

• explain Freud’s views about child and adolescent development ; and
• draw implications of Freud’s theory to education.




Sigmund Freud
(1856-1939)
• He is a popular psychologist whose theory of human development.
• Freud's theory remains to be one of the influential in psychology. This theory sparked the
ideas in the brilliant minds of other theorists and thus became the starting point of many
other theories, notable of which is Erickson's Psychosocial theory.
• According to Freud, a person goes through the sequence of these five stages and along way
here are needs to be met. Whether these needs are met or not, determines whether the
person will develop a healthy personality or not.
• The theory is quite interesting for many because Freud identified erogenous zones for each
stage of development. These are specific “pleasure areas” that become focal points for the
particular stage.
• If needs are not met along the area, a fixation occurs. As an adult. The person will now
manifest behaviours related to this erogenous zone.

• Human beings, from birth, possess an instinctual libido (sexual energy) that develops in five
stages;
Ø Oral
Ø Anal
Ø Phallic
Ø Latent
Ø Genital
Each stage is characterized by the erogenous zone that is the source of the libidinal drive.



PERSONALITY STRUCTURE
ID This is known as the biological drives with which the infant is born. It is
said to be the earliest and most primitive personality structure and
refers to the unconscious and usually operates with the goal of seeking
pleasure.
EGO This structure is the rational, logical, problem-solving component of
the personality.
SUPEREGO This is the structure based on the child’s internalization of the adults
attributes, beliefs and standards.

LESSON 6


Piaget’s Stages of Cognitive Development


• describe Piaget’s stages in your own words ; and
• match learning activities to the learners’ cognitive stage.


JEAN PIAGET
• A Swiss psychologist and genetic epistemologist
• First psychologist to make a systematic study of children’s cognitive development
• Interest: Biology + Philosophy = genetic epistemology
• He was 10 years old when he published his FIRST ARTICLE about Albino Sparrow
• 21 years old when he got his PhD.

The Adaptation Processes

ASSIMILATION- an adaptation process which uses an existing schema to deal with a new object
or situation.
ACCOMMODATION- happens when existing schema (knowledge) does not work and needs to
be changed to deal with a new object situation.
EQUILIBRATION- a force which drives learning process by mastering the new challenge
(accommodation).

Four Stages of Cognitive Development

“ Good thing you’re sorting those. Do you have more stuffed animals or more bears?”
Tria and Enzo says, “stuffed animals.” Riel says “Bears.”

Why do you think Riel answered “Bears?” What does this say about how she thought to
answer the question? ______________________________________________________


3. While eating on her high chair, seventh-month old Liza accidentally dropped her spoon
on the floor. She saw mommy pick it up. Liza again her new spoon, and she does this
several times more on purpose. Mommy didn’t like it at all but Liza appeared to enjoy
dropping the spoons the whole time.

contextualized for target learner.
C. Answer the following questions.
1. As a future teacher in the elementary or secondary school, how will you apply your
knowledge of the process of equilibration and Piaget's stages of development in your
classroom? How does this knowledge influence your selection of what to teach and how to
teach it?

2. Why does a teacher prefer the use of more concrete instructional methods in teaching to
encourage students to think more formally?

LESSON 7
Erikson’s Psycho-Social Theory of Development




• explain the 8 stages of life to someone you care about ; and
• suggest at least 6 ways on how Erikson’s theory can be useful for you as a future teacher.


• Erikson’s “psychosocial” term is derived from the two source words namely psychological
(or the root, ‘psycho’ relating to the mind, brain, personality, etc) and social (external
relationships and environment), both at the heart of Erikson's theory. Occasionally, you'll
see the term extend to biopsychosocial, in which “bio” refers to the life, as in biological.
• Erikson's theory was largely influenced by Sigmund Freud. But Erikson extended the theory
and incorporated cultural and social aspect intro Freud's biological and sexually oriented
theory
• Its also interesting to see how his ideas developed over time, perhaps aided by his own
journey through the ‘psychosocial crisis’ stages model that underpinned his work
• Like other influential theories, Erikson’s model is simple and well designated . The theory is
a basis for broad complex discussion and analysis of personality and behavior , and also for
understanding and facilitating personal development- of self and others.
• It can help the teacher in becoming more knowledgeable at the same time understanding of
the various environmental factors that affect his own and his students’ personality and
behavior
• Each stages involves psychosocial crisis of two opposing emotional forces is contrary
dispositions . Each crisis stage relates to a corresponding life stage and its inherent
challenges.
• Erikson used the words ‘syntonic’ for the first listed positive disposition in each crisis (e.g.
Trust) and ‘dystonic’ for the second listed negative disposition (e.g. Mistrust).
• If the stage is manage well, we carry away a certain virtue or psychosocial strength which
help us through the rest of the stages of our lives. Successfully passing through each crisis
involves ‘’achieving” a healthy ratio or balance between two opposing dispositions that
represent crisis.
• On the other hand if don’t do so well, we may develop maladaptations and malignancies, as
well as endanger all future development.
• A malignancy is the worse of the two. It involves too little of positive and to much of the
negative aspect of the task, such as a person who cant trust others.


• A maladaptation is not quite as bad and involves too much of the positive and too little of
the negative such as a person who trusts too much.

Erikson emphasized the significance of ‘mutuality ‘ and generativity in this theory. The
term is linked. Mutuality reflects the effect of generation on each other , especially among
families, and particularly between parents and children and grand children. Everyone
potentially affects everyone else’s experience as they pass through the different crisis stages .
Generativity, actually a named disposition within of the stages ( Generativity vs. stagnation,
stage seven), reflects the significant relationship between adults and the best interest of
children – one’s growth children, and in a way everyone else’s children – the next generation,
and all following generations.

• explain the stages of moral development ;
• analyse a person’s level of moral reasoning based on his response to moral dilemmas;
Level Stage Description
and
• cite how the theory of moral development can be applied to your work as teacher later
on.


Lawrence Kohlberg
(October 25, 1927 – January 19, 1987)
• He was a Jewish American psychologist born in Bronxville, New York, who served as a
professor at the University of Chicago, as well as Harvard University.
• Having specialized in research on moral education and reasoning, he is best known for
his theory of stages of moral development.
• A close follower of Jean Piaget’s theory of cognitive development, Kohlberg's work
reflected and extended his predecessor's ideas, at the same time creating a new field
within psychology: "moral development".
• Kohlberg was one of the most eminent psychologists of the 20th century.

LESSON 9
Vygotsky’s Socio- Cultural Theory


• explain why Vygotsky’s theory is called “Socio-cultural” theory ;


• differentiate Piaget and Vygotsky’s views on cognitive development; and
• explain how scaffolding is useful in teaching a skill.


• When Vygotsky was a young boy he was educated under a teacher who used the Socratic
Method. This method was a systematic question and answer approach that allowed
Vygotsky to examine current thinking and practice higher levels of understanding.
This experience, together with his interest in literature and his work as a teacher, led him to
recognize social interaction and language as two central factors in cognitive development.
His theory became known as the Socio-Cultural Theory of development
• In Social Interaction Piaget's theory was more on individual while Vygotsky is more social.
Piaget's work is focused heavily on how individual's cognitive development while Vygotsky
gave more weight on the social interactions that contributed to the cognitive development
of individuals.
• For him, the social environment or the community takes on a major role in one's
development. Vygotsky emphasized that effective learning happens through participation in
social activities that parents, teachers, peers and other adults in the learner's development
contribute to the process.
• Vygotsky believed in the crucial role that culture played on the cognitive development of
children. Piaget believed that child develops as he goes through the universal stages of
cognitive development. While Vygotsky looked into the wide rage of experiences that a
culture would give a child.
• Language opens the door for learners to acquire knowledge that others already have. For
Vygotsky, "talking to oneself" is an indication of the thinking that goes on in the mind of the
child. This will eventually lead to private speech. Private Speech is a form of self-talk that
guides the child's thinking and action.

THREE STAGES OF SPEECH DEVELOPMENT



ZONE OF PROXIMAL DEVELOPMENT (ZPD)

• Its goal is to help the child move from the level of current independent performance (the
competence demonstrated to do a task alone) to the level of potential performance (the
competence achieved with the guidance of others).

SCAFFOLDING

• Vygotsky defined scaffolding instruction as the role of teachers and others in supporting
the learners development and providing support structures to get to that next stage or
level.


• It serves as intervention to reach the zone of proximal development.

LESSON 10
Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Theory


• describe each of the layers of Bronfenbrenner’s Bioecological Model ;
• identify factors in one’s own life that exerted influence in one’s development; and
• use the bioecological theory as a framework to describe the factors that affect a child
and adolescent development.


• Urie Bronfenbrenner was a Russian-born American psychologist who is most known
for his ecological systems theory. His work with the United States government helped
in the formation of the Head start program in 1965
• Bronfenbrenner’s also known as the Bioecological systems theory presents child
development within the context of relationship system that comprise the child’s
environment.
• It describes multipart layers of the environment that has an effect on the
development of the child.
• Each layer is further made up of different structures.
• The term “bioecological” points out that a child’s own biological make-up impacts as
the key factor in one’s development.



• Microsystem – is the layer nearest the child. It comprises structures such which the
child directly interacts with. It includes structures such as one’s family, school, and
neighborhood.
• Mesosystem – this layer provides the connection between the structures of the child’s
microsystem.


Examples: The connection between the child’s teacher and his parents, between his
church and his neighborhood, etc.

• Exosystem – this layer defines the larger social system in which the child does not
function directly. The structures in this layer impact the child’s development by
interacting with some structure in her microsystem.
Examples: Parent workplace schedules or community-based family resources are
examples. The child may not be directly involved at this level, but he does feel the
positive or negative force involved with the interaction with his own system.

• Macrosystem – this layer may be considered the outermost layer in the child’s
environment. While not being a specific framework, this layer is comprised of cultural
values, customs, and laws.
Example: if it is the belief of the culture that parents should be solely responsible for
raising their children, that culture is less likely to provide resources to help parents. This,
in turn, affects the structures in which the parents function. The parents’ ability or
inability to carry out that responsibility toward their child within the context of the
child’s microsystem is likewise affected.

• Chronosystem – this system encompasses the dimension of time as it relates to a child’s
environments. Elements within this system can be either external, such as the timing of
a parent’s death, or internal, such as the physiological changes that occur with the aging
of a child. As children get older, they may react differently to environmental changes
and may be more able to determine more how that change will influence them.

LESSON 11


Development of the Learners at Various Stages

Pre-Natal Development

• Trace the course of prenatal developmental process that you went through
• Become more appreciative of the gift of life manifested in an anti-abortion stand;


All the developmental theories which we lengthily discussed dwelt on the
developmental process after birth. None of them was concerned with what development went
on birth. To make the description of human development complete, it may good to understand
the beginnings of he child and the adolescent. The development takes place in three (3) stages
proves that the developing embryo in a mother’s womb is truly a human being. It is divided into:
germinal period, embryonic period and fetal period.

1. Germinal period- (first 2 weeks after conception). This includes the creation of the
zygote, continued cell division, and the attachment of the zygote to the uterine wall. The
following are the details of development during this period.
a. 24 to 30 hours after fertilization the male (sperm) and female (egg) chromosome
unite.
b. 36 hours the fertilized ovum zygote, divides into two (2) cells
c. 48 hours (2days) – 2 cells become 4 cells
d. 72 hours (3 days) 4 cells become a small compact ball of 16 to 32 cells
e. 96 hours (4 days) – hallow ball of 64-128 cells
f. 4 to 5 days – inner cell mass (blastocyst) still free in the uterus
g. 6-7 days – blastocyst attaches to the wall of the uterus
h. 11 to 15 days – blastocyst invades into uterine wall and becomes implanted in it
(implantation)
2. Embryonic Period (2 -8 weeks after conception) – In this stage, the name of the mass
cells, zygote become embryo. The following developments take place:
a. Cell differentiation intensifies
b. Life support systems for the embryo develop and organ appear


As the zygote gets attached to the wall of the uterus, two layers of cells are formed. The
embryo’s endoderm, the inner layer cells, develops into the digestive and respiratory
systems. The outer layer of cells is divided into two parts the ectoderms and the mesoderm.
The ectoderm is the outermost layer which becomes the nervous system, sensory receptors
(eye skin and nose) and the skin parts such as nails and hair. The mesoderm is the middle
layer which becomes the circulatory, skeletal, muscular, excretory and reproductive system
this process during the first two months called organogenesis.
As the three layers of the embryo form, the support systems for the embryo develop
rapidly. These life-support systems are the placenta, the umbilical cord and the amnion. The
placenta is a life-support system that consists of disk-shaped group of tissues in which small
blood vessels from the mother and the offspring intertwine but do not join. The umbilical
cord contains two arteries and one vein that connects the baby to the placenta. The amnion
is a bag or an envelope that contains a clear fluid in which the developing embryo floats. All
these embryo life-support systems develop from the fertilized egg and not from the
mother’s body.

3. Fetal Period (2 months to 7 months after conception) – Growth and development
continue dramatically during this period. The delails of the developmental process are as
follows:
a. 3 months after conception- fetus is about 3 inches long and weighs about 1
ounce; fetus has become active moves it arms and legs, open and closes its
mouth and moves its head, the face, forehead, eyelids, nose, chin can now be
distinguished and also the upper arms, lower arms, hands and lower limbs, the
genital areas can now be identified as male or female.
b. 4 months after conception- fetus is about 6 inches long and weighs 4 to 7 ounces,
growth spurt occurs in the body’s lower parts, pre-natal reflexes are stronger,
mother feels arm and legs movements for the first time.
c. 5 months after conception – fetus is about 12 inches long, weighs close to a
pound structures of the skin have formed for the first time.
d. 6 months after conception- fetus is about 14 inches long and weighs one and half
pound, eye lids are completely formed, fine layer or head covers the head,
grasping reflex is present and irregular movement occur.
e. 7 months after conception - fetus is about 16 inches long and weighs of 3 pound.
f. 8 to 9 months after conception- fetus grows longer and gains substantial weight
about 4 pounds.

INFANCY AND TODDLERHOOD


• Trace the development of the child from infants to toddlers.
• Draw implications of these principles ad processes to parenting and caregiving.


We have just traced the developmental process before birth. We shall continue to trace
the developmental process by following the infant or the baby who just born up to when he
reaches age 2. The period that comes after pre-natal or antenatal stg is infancy which in turn, is
followed by toddlerhood. Infancy and toddlerhood span the first two years of life.

Between birth and age three, children rapidly achieve many important milestones that
create the foundation for later growth and development. Early in life, babies depend on others
to meet their needs for safety and security. When infants receive warm, consistent care and
attention from adults, they are able to establish a sense of trust in the world. They learn that
important caregivers will feed them, change them, bathe them, and play with them. This trust
serves as an important first step for children's development during the toddler years, a time
when children establish independence by exploring their environment. If toddlers trust their
caregivers and use them as a secure base from which to explore, they are more confident in
their efforts to learn about the world. Furthermore, when children become afraid or encounter
danger, they have the confidence to turn away and return to their secure base for reassurance
and protection. Toddlers also experience a new sense of self-awareness that grows from their
increasing desire to do things for themselves. In other words, toddlers become more
independent each and every day. For toddlers, learning to feed themselves and becoming toilet
trained are important and exciting accomplishments. These markers provide the necessary
starting point for growth and learning during the preschool years.
Helping children feel safe and secure during infancy and later encouraging toddlers'
exploration are important responsibilities for adults. Children who trust their caregivers are
more likely to confidently explore their surroundings and establish a sense of healthy
independence. And, as children begin to establish their independence, a positive sense of self-
control and self-esteem emerges. Caring adults have a wonderful opportunity to foster
children's independence and, in turn, their positive sense of self. The following information
provides general knowledge about children's development during infancy and toddlerhood,
including physical development, thinking and learning, expressing feelings, awareness of self


and others, and communication. Specific suggestions for how adults can positively influence
children's development are offered. Special attention is also paid to several issues that are
particularly important during infancy and toddlerhood, particularly:
• Toilet training
• Biting
Development between birth and 30 months
Each child grows and develops at his or her own rate. Children display developmental
landmarks at different times. The table below lists characteristics that children between the
ages of birth and 2-1/2 typically display as they grow and develop. For each type of
development (e.g., physical, communication), characteristics for younger children are listed
first, followed by the characteristics that children display as they get older (i.e., younger
children's characteristics are at the top of each list, older children's are at the bottom).

Toilet training
Most children successfully master toilet training by the age of 3. This is an important marker
of independence for toddlers, as they gain more control of their own bodies. Parents and other
important caregivers play a critical role in facilitating this transition in their children's lives.
Children need extra attention and affection during this time. With support from teachers and
child care providers, parents can make toilet training a successful learning experience. Listed
below are tips for toilet training your child.
• Look for signs that indicate your child is ready to start toilet training
o Awareness of a wet diaper or bowel movement in diaper
o Uses words to express needs
o Familiarity with toileting (through observation and discussion)
o Girls can usually be toilet trained earlier, at around 18 months or later, than boys,
who usually begin toilet training at around 22 months or later.
• Plan ahead
Pick an easy weekend/weekday when few other activities are going on to start toilet
training. Read books about potty training and talk about it. Be sure to have a lot of
training pants ready.
• Start in the morning
As soon as your child wakes up, suggest that he or she try sitting on the potty. If he or
she refuses, simply skip it and try again later.
• Morning reading
After eating breakfast, gather a few of your child's favorite books. Have him/her sit on
the potty and read. Make sure books have interesting pictures and a good story, as your
goal is to encourage him/her to sit there for a while and relax. Since he/she has just
eaten and drank at breakfast, chances are good that at least some urine will come out.
Praise your child's success. Let him/her flush and wash up.
• Once an hour
Plan for a timer to go off every hour. When it does, tell your child with enthusiasm that
it is "Time to go again!" or "Time to look at more books!" Avoid asking if they want or
need to go potty during the training stage — they really do not know whether they need
to go. When you ask, you give the child a chance to say "No," which is a legitimate
response.
• Accidents
Toilet training is a new skill that children learn through practice and experimentation. It
is okay if your child has an accident. Stay calm and reassure your child that it is okay. Let
the child help clean up and change his or her clothes, which allows him or her to feel
good about the things he or she can do.
• Be consistent
Once your child is ready to begin toilet training, commit to it. Do not switch back and
forth from diapers to underwear — it is confusing and the child loses his or her sense of
control over the process.


• Be supportive
You can facilitate toilet training by talking about it with your child, by accompanying
your child to the bathroom when you drop him or her off at school, and by providing
lots of extra clothes that your child can pull on and off on his or her own.
• Share the plan
When getting ready to begin potty training your child, be sure to share your plan (e.g., a
written summary) with other important adults in your child's life (e.g., child care
providers).
Biting
Whenever a child bites another person, it is upsetting for everyone. Biting is common among
very young children, particularly in group settings such as child care. It is very important for
adults to understand why children bite so that they can help children find more appropriate
ways to express themselves. The chart on page 6 lists reasons children bite, strategies to help
prevent biting, and strategies for responding to biting.
Reasons children bite and strategies to prevent biting

Biting satisfies their strong need for independence and control.
• Give children opportunities to express their independence and self-control by providing

them plenty of choices (e.g., what to wear that day; what game to play; what to eat for
lunch).
Teething makes babies mouths hurt.

• Give babies an object to mouth on, such as a teething toy or a frozen bagel.
They are trying to approach or initiate interaction with another child.
• Make sure children have plenty of opportunities to interact with one another. Point out
and praise their positive interactions.
They are seeking attention.
• Give children lots of attention during the day. Cuddle with them, play with them, read to
them.
They are angry or frustrated.
• Be aware of children's feelings. Watch for signs of potential conflict and increasing
frustration.
They are experimenting and want to know what will happen if they bite.
• Provide children activities and toys that offer a variety of sensory motor experiences
(e.g., water play, playdough, fingerpainting). Help them learn about cause and effect.
They are feeling threatened.
• Assure children that they are safe and that their possessions are safe. Give children lots
of affection.
Strategies for responding to biting
Sometimes prevention efforts do not stop children from biting. When a child bites another
person, the adults in charge should consistently respond to each biting episode; specific
strategies and ideas are listed below:


• State clearly that it is not okay to bite.
• Be sure that the child who is bitten is cared for. Comfort the child; put on an ice pack to
prevent bruising; clean the wound if the skin is broken.
• If possible, have the child who bit help care for the child who was bitten.
• Look for patterns of biting (e.g., Does the child bite near mealtime? When the
environment gets too loud?).
• Try to identify changes in the child's life that might trigger the biting (e.g., divorce, a
new sibling).
• Seek help (start with your pediatrician and/or child care provider) if the biting does not
stop or if it becomes more vicious.

on” by Carl Sandurg

Middle Childhood



• Describe the different development of early childhood children in your words.
• Enumerate ideas on how you can apply the concepts In teaching learning processe.


Middle childhood is the stage when children undergo so many different changes-
physically, emotionally, socially and cognitively. This is the stage between 6 to 12 years old.
Children in this stage receive less attention than children in infancy or early childhood. The
support of the family and friends of the child is very important during this phase of
development.
Physical growth during the primary school years is slow but steady. During this stage,
physical development involves: (1) having good muscle control and coordination. (2) developing
eye-hand coordination (3) having good personal hygiene and (4) being aware of good safety
habits.

Height Weight
In this development stage, children will have started their elementary grades specifically
their primary years, grade 1-3. This period will give children time to get used to the changes in
their bodies. An average increase in height of a little over two inches a year in both boys and
girls will introduce them to many different activities that they can now do with greater accuracy.
Weight gain averaged about 6.5 pound each year. Most children will have slimmer
appearance compared to their preschool years because of the shifts inn accumulation and
location of their body fats. A child’s legs ae longer and more proportioned to the body that they
were before.
A number of factors could indicate how much a child grows, or how much changes in the
body will take place.
• Genes
• Food
• Climate
• Exercise
• Medical conditions
• Diseases/ illnesses

Bones and Muscles
Childhood years are the peak bone – producing years. This is the best time to teach
children of good dietary and exercise habits to help them having strong healthy bones
throughout their lives. Many lifestyle factors, like nutrition and physical activity, can
substantially influence the increase of bone mass during childhood. Because children bones
have proportionately more water and protein-like materials and fewer minerals than adult,
ensuring adequate calcium intake ill greatly help them in strengthening bones and muscles.



Motor Development
Young school-aged children and gaining control over the major muscles of their bodies.
Most children have a good sense of balance. They like testing their muscles strength and skills.
They enjoy doing real-life tasks ana activities. They pretend and fantasize less often because
they are more attuned with everything that is happening around them.
Children in this stage love to move a lot- they run, skip, hop, jump, tumble, roll and
dance. Because their motor skills are already developed, they can now perform activities like
catching a ball with one hand, trying their shoelaces, they can manage zippers and buttons.
Performing unimanual (require the use one hand) activities becomes easier. Children graphic
activities such a writing and drawing , are now more controlled but a re still developing. They
can print their names and copy simple designs, letter and shapes. They hold pencils, crayons,
utensils correctly with supervision. Motor development skills include coordination, balance,
speed,agility and power.
The definitions of the different motor skills are the following:
Coordination is a series of movements organized and timed to occur in a particular way to bring
about a particular result. The more complex the movement is the greater coordination is
required. Children develop ey-hand and eye-foot coordination when they play games and spsts.
Balance- is the child’s ability to maintain the equilibrium or stability of his/her body in different
positions. Balance is a basic skill needed especially in this stage, when children have improved
balancing skills.
Static balance - is the ability to maintain equilibrium in a fixed position like balancing on one
foot.
Dynamic balance – is the ability to maintain equilibrium while moving
Speed- is the ability to cover a great distance in the shortest possible time while agility is one’s
ability to quickly change or shift the direction of the body. These skills are extremely important
in most sports.
Power- is the ability to perform a maximum effort in the shortest possible period.
All these motor skills are vital in performing different activities, games and sports.
Development of these skills may spell the difference between success and failure in future
endeavors of the child.

Cognitive Development of Pre schoolers
Jean Piaget is the foremost theorist when it comes to cognitive development. According
to him, intelligence is the basic mechanism of ensuring balance ensuring balance in the relations
between the person and the environment. Everything that a person experiences is a continuous
process of assimilations and accommodations. He described four main periods in cognitive
development. For Paget’s intellectual ability is not the same at different stages.

Concrete Operation
It is san from age 7 to approximately 11 years. In this developmental stage, children
have better understanding of their thinking skills. Children begin to think logically about
concrete events, particularly their own experiences, but have difficulty understanding abstract
or hypothetical concepts, thus most of them still have a hard time at problem solving.


Logic
Concrete operational thinks, according to Piaget, can already make use of inductive
logic. Inductive logic involves thinking from a specific experiences to a general principle. But at
this stage, children have great difficulty in using deductive logic or using a general principle to
determine the outcome of specific event.

Reversibility
On of the most important developments in this stage is an understanding of reversibility,
or awareness that actions ca be reversed. An example of this is being able to revise the order of
relationships between mental categories.
Cognitive Milestones
Elementary-aged children encounter developmental smilestones. They develop certain
skills within a particular time frame. The skills they learn are the in a sequential manner,
meaning they need to understand numbers before they can perform a mathematical equation.
Each milestone that develops is dependent upon the previous milestone they achieved. Up until
age of 8 a child learn new skills at a rapid pace. Once they reach that age of 8 the skills they
learn starts to level off and it usually is a ready increase of new skills.
Specifically, young primary school-aged children can tell left from right. They are able to
speak and express themselves and their families. During play, they practice using the words and
language they learn in school. They start to understand time and days of the week. They enjoy
rhymes, riddles and jokes. Their attention span is longer. They can follow more involved stories.
They are learning letters and words. By six, most can read words or combinations of words.

Socio Emotional Development
In this stage, children, will most likely, have begun going to school. School experience
become the priority, with children so busy doing school work. The encouragement of parents
and caring educators help to build a child’s sense of self-esteem, strengthening their confidence
and ability to interact positively in the world.

Understanding the Self

One’s self-concept is the knowledge about self, such as beliefs regarding personality
traits, physical characteristics, abilities, values, goals and roles. It also involves a sense of
belonging and acceptance, a sense of good and a sense of being capable of doing good. Having a
healthy self-concept does not mean a child thinks he is better that others. It means that he like
himself, feels accepted by his family and friends and believes that he can do well.
Primary school children’s self-concept is influenced not only by the parents, but also by
the growing number of people they begin to interact with, including teachers and classmates.
Children have a growing understanding of their place in the world. They already know that they
can please their parents and teachers They are comfortable and show confidence in doing thigs
they are good at, but also show frustration in things that they find difficult.



School Year
In the transition from pre-elementary to primary school, children tend to become
increasingly self-confident and able to cope well with social interactions. They are not focused
on themselves anymore but are also aware of the needs and desires of others. The issues of
fairness and equality become important to them as they learn to care for people who are not
part of their families. Characteristics like loyalty and dependability are being considered as well
as responsibility and kindness.

Building friendship
Making friends is crucial but very important part of children’s social and emotional
growth. As soon as they are able to walk and talk, they will tend to show natural inclination to
be around other children. Children, during this stage most likely belong approximately to the
same age group and same social economic status. It is found along the stages of childhood
through adolescence. But for children until the age of seven or eight, they think of themselves
more that others. They may play well with groups but may need some time to play alone.
Primary school children prefer to belong to peer groups of the same gender. Many children will
use their surroundings to obsrve and mingle with other children. Some will see this as an
opportunity to make friends with other remain a bit of loner.

Self Control
Once children reach school age, they begin to take pride in their ability to do things and
their parents and teachers. This becomes a great opportunity for parents and teachers to
encourage positive emotional responses from children by acknowledging their mature,
compassionate behaviors.

1. Study the situations given below. If you were the teacher, how will you help
these learners cope with their socioemotional difficulties?

Dear Teacher,
I am really heart broken. MY 8 year old daughter is feeling lonely, isolated and
friendless. It seems that she has felt this way for quite a while. She says that he mostly
spends time alone- that she has no friends because no one wants to plays with her. She
tags along, but is usually left out eventually. She can become angry if things don’t always
go her way and also teary. I don’t know where to turn to help her-the tough that she
finds school painful is heartbreaking



Sincerely,
Worried Mother

Adolescence

• Define adolescence and explain the concepts of biological changes puberty and
transition into adulthood.


• Analyze the issues related to physical, cognitive and emotional maturation inclusive of
sexuality, thereby formulating positive values on adolescent development.


The period of adolescence begins with biological changes of puberty and ends with the
role and work of adult life. The specific ages for this period varies from person to person but
distinct phases have been identified. The advent of puberty may come early for some and late
for some others. But everyone goes these stages. (1) early adolescence characterized by
puberty mostly occurring between age 10 to 13. (2) middle adolescence identity issues with the
age 14 to 16 (3) late adolescence identity which marks the transition into adulthood age of 17 to
20.
Adolescence is often characterized as a period of transformation, primarily, in terms of
physical, cognitive, and social-relational change. Adolescence is a developmental stage that has
been defined as starting with puberty and ending with the transition to adulthood
(approximately ages 10–20). Adolescence has evolved historically, with evidence indicating that
this stage is lengthening as individuals start puberty earlier and transition to adulthood later
than in the past. Puberty today begins, on average, at age 10–11 years for girls and 11–12 years
for boys. This average age of onset has decreased gradually over time since the 19th century by
3–4 months per decade, which has been attributed to a range of factors including better
nutrition, obesity, increased father absence, and other environmental factors (Steinberg, 2013).
Completion of formal education, financial independence from parents, marriage, and
parenthood have all been markers of the end of adolescence and beginning of adulthood, and
all of these transitions happen, on average, later now than in the past. In fact, the prolonging of
adolescence has prompted the introduction of a new developmental period called emerging
adulthood that captures these developmental changes out of adolescence and into adulthood,
occurring from approximately ages 18 to 29 (Arnett, 2000).

Puberty
Adolescence begins with puberty. While the sequence of physical changes in puberty is
predictable, the onset and pace of puberty vary widely. Several physical changes occur during
puberty, such as adrenarche and gonadarche, the maturing of the adrenal glands and sex
glands, respectively. Also during this time, primary and secondary sexual characteristics develop
and mature. Primary sexual characteristics are organs specifically needed for reproduction, like
the uterus and ovaries in females and testes in males. Secondary sexual characteristics are
physical signs of sexual maturation that do not directly involve sex organs, such as development
of breasts and hips in girls, and development of facial hair and a deepened voice in boys. Girls
experience menarche, the beginning of menstrual periods, usually around 12–13 years old, and
boys experience spermarche, the first ejaculation, around 13–14 years old.


During puberty, both sexes experience a rapid increase in height (i.e., growth spurt). For
girls this begins between 8 and 13 years old, with adult height reached between 10 and 16
years old. Boys begin their growth spurt slightly later, usually between 10 and 16 years old, and
reach their adult height between 13 and 17 years old. Both nature (i.e., genes) and nurture
(e.g., nutrition, medications, and medical conditions) can influence height.
Because rates of physical development vary so widely among teenagers, puberty can be
a source of pride or embarrassment. Early maturing boys tend to be stronger, taller, and more
athletic than their later maturing peers. They are usually more popular, confident, and
independent, but they are also at a greater risk for substance abuse and early sexual activity.
Early maturing girls may be teased or overtly admired, which can cause them to feel self-
conscious about their developing bodies. These girls are at a higher risk for depression,
substance abuse, and eating disorders. Late blooming boys and girls (i.e., they develop more
slowly than their peers) may feel self-conscious about their lack of physical development.
Negative feelings are particularly a problem for late maturing boys, who are at a higher risk for
depression and conflict with parents and more likely to be bullied.
Physical Development during Adolescence
The Brain: Basic Facts
The frontal cortex, the area of the brain responsible for rational thinking, is still
developing during adolescence. Adolescents differ from adults in the way they behave, solve
problems, and make decisions. Recent research shows that there is a biological explanation for
this difference; the brain continues to develop during adolescence and even into early
adulthood.
Brain Development: The Amygdala and the Frontal Cortex
The amygdala and the frontal cortex are two key regions of the brain that develop at
different times. The amygdala, which processes stress and other emotions, and is responsible
for instinctual reactions like fear and aggressive behavior, matures early.
On the other hand, the frontal cortex, the area of the brain responsible for judgment,
self-control, emotional regulation, rational thought, goal setting, morality, and understanding
consequences, is not yet fully developed in teenagers. In fact, this area of the brain develops
quite dramatically during adolescence and into the mid-20s.
Because the part of the brain that helps us think before we act isn’t fully developed until
adulthood , in stressful situations or when faced with difficult decisions, teens are more likely
to:
• Think one thing and feel another


• Act from impulses that differ from thoughts or feelings
• Misread or misinterpret social cues and emotions
• Engage in risky or inappropriate behavior
How Can Adults Help?
There are several ways adults can help teens make healthy choices. Adolescents’ brains go
through a “use-it-or-lose-it” pruning system: brain cells and neural connections that get used
the least get pruned away and die off, whereas those that get used the most become stronger.
To help teens make healthy choices, walk them through the decision making process before
they encounter risky situations. This will help them to make life-impacting decisions with less
stress. Teens who undergo learning and positive experiences help build complex, adaptive
brains.
Strategies to Support Healthy Adolescent Brain Development
• Encourage teens to have healthy lifestyles and offer opportunities for

positive experiences.
• Provide meaningful opportunities for teens to exercise logic and apply analytical and
decision making skills to build up those brain functions.
• Encourage teens to take healthy risks. Taking such risks will help to develop a stronger
frontal cortex, effectively giving the teen more valuable life skills.
• Allow teens to make mistakes so that they can learn from them. (48)
Physical Development during Adolescence
Nutrition and Activity
Adolescents may be ready to make decisions about their body and health. Making
healthy decisions about what to eat and drink, how active they are, and how much sleep to get
are important decisions that can either promote or hinder health. Unfortunately, many teens
do not make healthy decisions, partly due to the frontal cortex still developing and partly due to
the culture in which we live. In the United States, 20% of individuals between the ages of 12
and 19 are obese. If you ever have the opportunity to watch the documentary, “Fed Up.” It
powerfully shows how we are failing our adolescents in terms of healthy eating.


Healthy Eating
Teens need to be taught how to make healthy eating choices. Here are some healthy eating tips
that teens should know:
• Try to limit foods like cookies, candy, frozen desserts, chips, and fries, which often have a
lot of sugar, unhealthy fat, and salt.
• For a quick snack, try recharging with a pear, apple, or banana; a small bag of baby
carrots; or hummus with sliced veggies.
• Don’t add sugar to your food and drinks.
• Drink fat-free or low-fat milk and avoid sugary drinks. Soda, energy drinks, sweet tea, and
some juices have added sugars, a source of extra calories. The 2015-2020 Dietary
Guidelines recommend getting less than 10 percent of your daily calories from added
sugars.
In addition to making smart food choices, it is also important to know that the nutritional needs
of adolescents are unique. Many teens need more of these nutrients:
• Calcium , to build strong bones and teeth. Good sources of calcium include fat-free or
low-fat milk, yogurt, and cheese.
• Vitamin D , to keep bones healthy. Good sources of vitamin D include orange juice,
oranges, tuna, and fat-free or low-fat milk.
• Potassium , to help lower blood pressure. Good sources of potassium include bananas
and baked potatoes with the skin.
• Fiber , to help stay regular and feel full. Good sources of fiber include beans and celery.
• Protein , to give you energy and help you grow strong. Good sources of protein include
peanut butter, eggs, tofu, legumes (lentils and peas), and chicken, fish, and low-fat meats.
• Iron , to help you grow. Red meat contains a form of iron that your body absorbs best.
Other good sources of iron include spinach, beans, peas, and iron-fortified cereals. You
can help your body absorb the iron from these foods better when you combine these
foods with vitamin C, like an orange.
Physical Activity
Physical activity should be part of teenagers’ daily life, whether they play sports, take
physical education (PE) classes in school, do chores, or get around by biking or walking. Regular
physical activity can help teenagers manage their weight, have stronger muscles and bones,
and be more flexible.


Aerobic Versus Lifestyle Activities
People, regardless of age, need to be physically active for at least 60 minutes a day. Most of the
60 minutes or more of activity a day should be either moderate or intense aerobic physical
activity. Everyone should include intense physical activity at least 3 days a week. Examples of
aerobic physical activity or activity that makes you breathe harder and speeds up your heart
rate, include jogging, biking, and dancing.
For a more moderate workout, brisk walking, jogging, or biking on flat streets or paths all work.
To pick up the intensity, individuals can turn a walk into a jog, or jog into a run and including
hills to the walk, jog, or bike ride. We don’t have to do 60 minutes a day all at once to benefit
from the activity. Teens can download fitness applications onto their computer, smartphone, or
other mobile device to help keep track of how active they are each day. (49)
Sleep Needs
Sometimes it’s difficult for teens to get enough sleep, especially if they have jobs, help take care
of younger brothers or sisters, or are busy with other activities after school. Like healthy eating
and getting enough physical activity, getting enough sleep is important for staying healthy.
Everyone needs enough sleep to do well in school, work, drive safely, and fight off infection.
Not getting enough sleep may lead to moodiness and irritability. While more research is
needed, some studies have shown that not getting enough sleep may also contribute to weight
gain. Individuals between 13 and 18 years old should get 8 to 10 hours of sleep each night.
The amount of sleep you need changes as you age. Children need more sleep than adults. The
American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society recommend:
Cognitive Development
Similarly remarkable as the physical changes in the transitional period of adolescence,
are changes in thinking patterns. These changes are marked by the acquisition of new cognitive
skills due to the brain’s increasing in weight and refining synaptic connections which join and
coordinate the two hemisphere of the brain. Another brain development is the process of
continuous concentration of the brain

Piaget’s Formal Operational Thinker

Piaget formulated the theory of Formal Operational Thinking which demonstrates how the
cognitive capacity of the adolescent allows him/her to go beyond the sensible an concrete to
dwell on what is abstract, hypothetical, multidimensional and possible. In tis realm of thought
the adolescent begin to attain subtlety in thinking, entering the sphere of possible and
futuribles. Most specifically formal operational thinking consist of:


Propositional thinking – making assertions outside visual evidence and stating what may
be possible in thing not seen by the eyes.
Relativistic thinking-

LESSON 12

Learner Centered and Learning Principles




• Identify and discuss the learning principles use in teaching learning process.

Learner centered" is the perspective that couples a focus on individual learners - their
heredity, experiences, perspectives, backgrounds, talents, interests, capacities, and needs -
with a focus on leaning - the best available knowledge about learning and how it occurs and
about teaching practices that are most effective in promoting the highest levels of motivation,
learning, and achievement for all learners. This dual focus then informs and drives educational
decision making. Learner-centered is a reflection in practice of the Learner-Centered
Psychological Principles - in the programs, practices, policies, and people that support learning
for all.
This definition of learner-centered is thus based on an understanding of the Learner-

Centered Psychological Principles as a representation of the current knowledge base on
learners and learning. The Principles apply to all learners, in and outside of school, young and
old. Learner-centered is also related to the beliefs, characteristics, dispositions, and practices of
teachers - practices primarily created by the teacher. When teachers and their practices
function from an understanding of the knowledge base delineated in the Principles, they (a)
include learners in decisions about how and what they learn and how that learning is assessed;
(b) value each learner's unique perspectives; (c) respect and accommodate individual
differences in learners' backgrounds, interests, abilities, and experiences; and (d) treat learners
as co-creators and partners in the teaching and learning process.
The 14 principles are divided into those referring to:

– Cognitive and metacognitive
– Motivational and affective
– Developmental and social
– Individual difference factors

COGNITIVE AND METACOGNITIVE FACTOR
1. Nature of Learning Process
the learning of complex subject matter is most effective when it is an international process of
constructing meaning from information and experience.
2. Goals of the Learning Process
the successful learner, over time and with support and instructional guidance, can create
meaningful, coherent representations of knowledge.
3. Construction of Knowledge
the successful learner can link new information with existing knowledge in meaningful ways.
Knowledge widens and deepens as students continue to build links between new information
and experiences and their existing knowledge base.


4. Strategic Thinking
the successful learner can create and use a repertoire of thinking and reasoning strategies to
achieve complex learning goals.
Successful learners use in their approach to learning reasoning, problem solving, and concept
learning.
5. Thinking about thinking
Successful learners can reflect on how they think and learn, set reasonable learning or
performances goals, select potentially appropriate learning strategies or methods, and monitor
their progress towards these goals.
6. Context of Learning
Learning is influenced by environmental factors, including culture, technology and instructional
practices.

MOTIVATIONAL AND AFFECTIVE FACTOR
7. Motivational and emotional influences on learning
the rich internal world of thoughts, beliefs, goals, and expectation for success or failure can
enhance or interfere with the learner’s quality of thinking and information processing.
8. Intrinsic motivation to learn
Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal novelty and difficulty, relevant to personal
interests, and providing for personal choice and control.
9. Effects of motivation on effort
Effort is another major indicator of motivation to learn. The acquisition of complex knowledge
and skills demands the investment of considerable learner energy and strategic effort, along
with persistence over time.

DEVELOPMENTAL AND SOCIAL FACTOR
10. Developmental influences on learning
learning is most effective when differential developmental within and across physical,
intellectual, emotional, and social domains is taken into account.
Individuals learn best when material is appropriate to their developmental level and is
presented in an enjoyable and interesting way.
11. Social influences on learning
Learning can be enhanced when the learner has an opportunity to interact and to collaborate
with others on instructional tasks.

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES FACTOR
12. Individual differences in learning
Individuals are born with and develop their own capabilities and talents.
Educators need to help students examine their learning preferences and expand or modify
them, if necessary.
13. Learning and diversity
the same basic principles of learning, motivation, and effective instruction apply to all learners.
14. Standards and assessment


Assessment provides important information to both the learner and teacher at all stages of the
learning process.

Alexander and Murphy gave a summary of the 14 principles and distilled them into five areas:
1. The knowledge base
One’s knowledge serves as the foundation of all future learning.
2. Strategic processing and control
Learners can develop skills to reflect and regulate their thoughts and behaviors in order to learn
more effectively.
3. Motivation and affect
Factors such as intrinsic motivation, reasons for wanting to learn, personal goals and enjoyment
of learning tasks all have a crucial role in the learning process.
4. Development and Individual Differences
Learning is a unique journey for each person because each learner has his own unique
combination of genetic and environmental factors that influence him.
5. Situation or context
Learning happens in the context of a society as well as within an individual.
