Which is your favorite theory of development. How can this guide you as a future teacher?
Clip some readings about this theory and paste them here.
Erikson’s theory is useful because it addresses both personality stability and personality change. To some
degree, personality is stable, because childhood experiences influence people even as adults. However,
personality also changes and develops over the life span as people face new challenges. The problem with
Erikson’s theory, as with many stage theories of development, is that he describes only a typical pattern. The
theory doesn’t acknowledge the many differences among individuals.
