This chapter discusses several theories of psychosocial and cognitive development:
1) Erikson's theory of psychosocial development describes 8 stages from infancy to adulthood defined by psychosocial crises. Piaget's theory of cognitive development outlines 4 stages from sensorimotor to formal operations. Vygotsky emphasized the role of social and cultural influences on cognitive development.
2) The chapter then examines theories of moral development including Piaget's stages, Kohlberg's six stages of moral reasoning, and Gilligan's perspective on female moral development emphasizing caring relationships.
3) The chapter concludes that while moral thinking is important, character education programs seeking to promote moral behavior have had mixed results, as moral thinking does

Lecture notes
Week 1
What is child development?
McDevitt et al. (2013, p. 4) claim that the 'field of child development seeks to identify and explain persistent, cumulative and progressive changes in the development of children and adolescents'. They write that a child’s development is 'guided by three factors: Nature or Heredity – the genetic inheritance with which the child is born; Nurture or Environment – the influence of the setting in which the child lives; and Agency – the child’s choices, mental processes, emotional responses and behaviors'.
Week 2
Cognitive development
Cognitive development looks specifically at the brain development of children from birth, examining how they think and understand at various stages of their lives. You may have already heard a little about the two major cognitive development theorists: Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky, who each have strong views about influencing factors on cognitive development. As you are working through the readings and videos below, consider the similarities and differences between each theorist and how this applies to education.

Summary of cognitive development: 6-12 years of age
· From Child development: A practitioner's guide (Davies, 2010, p. 382)
· Increasingly accurate perception of reality (reality testing) (6+ years).
· Reversibility: systematic ability to analyse perceptions by thinking back over them (6-7 years).
· Improving understanding of cause and effect; decline in magical thinking (6-7 years).
· Decentration: decline in egocentrism and increase in decentred thought allow child to distinguish between subjective and objective reality (6-7 years+).
· Concrete operations: processes of logic and reasoning can be applied to understand immediate reality (6-7 years+).
· Developmental spurt in cognitive functions at about age 7: spatial organisation, visual organisational ability, time orientation, distinctions between parts and wholes, serration, auditory processing (6-8 years).
· Memory: improved registration and categorisation of memory contributes to mastery of academic tasks (6 years+).
· Executive processes: new skills in thinking about problem solving, sustaining attention ...

Preventive psychiatry in india: Preventing on Child Psychiatric FrontDevashish Konar
Parenting training of would-be-parents, early detection of vulnerable children and timely intervention are some of the efforts that will give large dividend. We have very limited number of child psychiatrists. So including general psychiatrists, pediatricians, family physicians, health workers and teachers would be the most suited public health strategy for India. They need to be trained to work within their limits and need to learn to refer at the right time without wasting precious time of the growing children and adolescents.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
