Development is the series of age-related changes that happen over the course of a lifespan (sparknotes.com). Several famous psychologists, including Sigmund Freud, Erik Erikson, Jean Piaget, and Lawrence Kohlberg, describe development as a series of stages (sparknotes.com). A stage is a period in development in which people exhibit typical behavior patterns and establish particular capacities (sparknotes.com). People pass through different stages and different orders of how it works with them, and the people who are teaching.
When children are born the development of their brain grow more and more each and every day. when learning the brain processes the material in which it is taught. Human brains will develop from birth to older ages then it has explained the reasons for different options and options and objects to understand things. There are keys to understanding what a child thinks and how they do things with their mind. No matter what we say or do, children from childbirth to young adults will make the decision where they do not know if it is right or wrong.
That is the reason why we have to understand of child development is essential because it allows us to fully appreciate the cognitive, emotional, physical, social, and educational growth that children go through from birth and into early adulthood (verywell.com). Children want to be a part of the cool crowd, want to be a part of them and want to have the knowledge for school. People strive to be the best they can be even in their childhood. But the developmental psychologists strive to answer such questions as well as to understand, explain, and predict behaviors that occur throughout the lifespan (verywell.com). In order to understand human development, a number of different theories of child development have arisen to explain various aspects of human growth (verywell.com).
The theory is quite exciting and understands with details and studies. The brain works in many different ways, learning and decision making is the biggest qualities and or studies being made. One developmental theory that caught my eye was the Freud's Psychosexual Developmental Theory. it gives more details on what the theory is about. Freud's developmental theory is when child development occurs in a series of stages focused on different pleasure areas of the body and during each stage, the child encounters conflicts that play a significant role in the course of development (verywell.com).
The fundamental truth of any child's years and also the general aspect of the learning capabilities of a child or an adult, also providing the study abilities and fundamental learning capabilities for people throughout their whole life. But yet did we know the brain is growing from birth and time goes by, it will decay and die. The developmental theory is a very well thought to how children and adults learn. when we use.

Discussion 2
Cognitive theory focuses on ideas and beliefs that are of central
importance by stages of development. These distinct stages are
3. characterized by qualitative age-related differences referring to
thinking, attitude, beliefs, assumptions, and how they change
with time and experience. Jean Piaget, the most famous
cognitive theorist describes each stage of development known as
Piaget’s Periods of Cognitive Development. Sensorimotor stage
(Infancy), Preoperational stage (Toddler and Early Childhood),
Concrete operational stage (Elementary and Early Adolescence),
and Formal operational stage (Adolescence and Adulthood) are
the four major stages that Piaget uses as references to explain
how and why people change over the life span.
During the Sensorimotor stage (Birth to 2 years) infants learn
that an object still exists when it is out of sight and begin to
think through mental actions. Infants also begin to know the
world through basic actions, movements and sensations such as
sucking, grasping, looking and listening. The Preoperational
stage (2-6 years) focuses on the imagination and thinking
logically; Language becomes a significant means of self-
expression and of influence from others. Children also begin to
think symbolically and learn to use words and pictures to
represent other objects. The Concrete operational stage (6-11
years) applies logical abilities children learn to understand
concepts of conversation, number, classification, and many
other scientific ideas. Their thinking becomes more logical and
organized, but still remains very concrete. During the Formal
operational stage (12 years through adulthood) ethics, politics,
and social and moral issues become fascinating as adolescents
and adults take a broader and more theoretical approach to
experience. At this stage, the adolescent or young adult begins
to think abstractly and reason about hypothetical problems.
(Invitation to The Life Span, 29)
I feel that Jean Piaget’s Cognitive Theory is the most accurate
regarding life span growth and development since it strictly
focuses on the development of human intelligence from
childhood through adolescence to adulthood. Our progression is
determined by our biological maturation and interaction with
the environment, which is thoroughly broken down in the
4. periods of cognitive development. If we’re discussing life span
growth and development, this theory is the most accurate since
it covers in depth, our development as we go through important
stages of our life.
If I could design my own theory of development over the life
span I would include stages of development like Jean Piaget
because I think it’s important to have a visual representation
when discussing a theory. The periods of development helped
me personally form a better idea of Piaget’s thought process
when developing the theory, and made his idea very clear. If I
could add anything to my own theory that wasn’t already
presented in others, it would be an elaborated version of the
stages. I would like to expand the periods through adulthood
and maybe even come up with an understanding of our thinking
when we reach seniority. I think it would be interesting to study
why we tend to lose memories and find it harder to think
rationally.
