a. What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages of the chameleon effect?

In my notion, the chameleon effect is the universal splendor in which people tend to be
enamored with and more likely to date others who share calibers similar to their own. The notion
behind it is that people are highly cognizant of their appearance and how other people perceive
them and that they'll go out of their way to change themselves to avoid inimical feedback from
others. The chameleon effect can also be seen positively and negatively concerning nonverbal
communication. On the one hand, it shows that humans can adapt nonverbally to their
environment by altering their demeanors based on those around them. This ability can be helpful
in many situations, from work meetings, school grounds, and social gatherings. On the other
hand, it shows that humans may not have as much control over their nonverbal behavior. It could
lead some individuals to believe that they do not have complete control over who they are, which
could be detrimental to their self-esteem.

b. How can you apply these pieces of information to your facilitation of observational
learning among children?

Teachers should closely monitor the situations they create in their classrooms to ensure that
they are not unintentionally harming a child's self-esteem by rewarding certain behaviors over
others. I must apply these pieces of information in my practice to avoid any doubts and
confusion among children. These are essential factors that I should consider when facilitating
observational learning among children:
 
 The chameleon effect can be applied to scaffolding methods that will help learners
acquire skills at their own pace by providing different difficulty levels. As a facilitator, it
is vital to ask the learners if they have any questions and understand how to do a specific
activity, and observing their responses will give me an idea if they need more time or
assistance so that I can provide them with more assistance later on.

 The chameleon effect can be applied in class management strategies such as ensuring that
each child's contribution is acknowledged by asking them questions and encouraging
them to share their thoughts and ideas.

 The chameleon effect can be applied in instructional strategies such as using various
techniques when introducing new subjects to children, enabling them to learn better.

1. Both sensorimotor systems and large companies are complex systems trying to
survive in a competitive milieu. Briefly explain how they function in similar ways.

Large companies are complex systems that are trying to survive in a competitive milieu, and, as
such, they follow many of the same rules and laws as sensorimotor systems. Sensorimotor
systems, like humans, use feedback loops to make sense of their surroundings, but those
feedback loops can be slow and often misinformed, just like how large companies follow the
same rules of working with the information they have at hand. 

Although large companies and the human nervous system may seem very different at first
glance, they are similar in many ways, and as complex adaptive systems, both humans and large
companies are governed by three basic principles:

 They must be able to sense what is going on around them in their immediate environment
and have an internal state of equilibrium (homeostasis).

 They must be able to interpret this information and make appropriate decisions about
how to act upon it.

 They can organize themselves into a structure that allows them to survive in the long term.

Finally, large companies have many interconnections between different parts of the company and
between different people within the company, just like sensorimotor systems do (for example,
there will be interconnections between different departments in a large company just as there are
interconnections between different neurons in a sensorimotor system).
