Discussion: The Contribution of Classical Theorists to Contemporary Developmental Theorists While all major developmental theories attempt to explain the growth of individuals, each theory has a slightly different perspective. Some theories emphasize environmental (nurture) more than biological (nature) influences. Some theories focus on a particular construct (e.g., cognition), while others emphasize the impact of age range in shaping development. Piaget's cognitive developmental theory emphasizes fixed stages during which the mind's capacities allow an individual to learn about the world. Vygotsky's sociocultural theory, on the other hand, is not stage-based and describes growth as an interaction between the individual and his or her environment. Contemporary theories (e.g., Langer's theory of mindfulness) typically build upon the foundation generated by earlier theories. Langer's theory of mindfulness contains similarities to classical theories, such as Vygotsky's sociocultural theory, in that they both agree that development is contextual and the organism is an active "mindful" participant. Langer took Vygotsky's theory to a new level, focusing specifically on education and the learner. Other contemporary theories include neo-Piagetian cognitive developmental theories, which attempt to address the limitations found within Piaget's classical theory. Robbie Case, Andreas Demetriou, and Kurt Fischer proposed theories that were extensions of Piaget's theory. These theorists added concepts that expanded on cognitive functioning within the stages of development. Most developmental psychologists today do not believe that a single perspective or theory can sufficiently explain lifespan development; rather, an eclectic approach accounts for development better. For this Discussion, you will examine classical and contemporary developmental theories as they relate to current applications in developmental psychology. To prepare for this Discussion: Review the course text and other Learning Resources related to mid-20th-century theories and recent theoretical perspectives Select two theories from the following list, one from each column (classical, contemporary), that examine the same developmental processes (i.e., cognitive, physical, and/or social-emotional).

There are many different ways of thinking about human behavior. Psychologists utilize a variety of perspectives when studying how people think, feel, and behave. Some researchers focus on one specific perspective, such as the biological perspective, while others take a more eclectic approach that incorporates multiple points of view. There is no single perspective that is "better" than another; each simply emphasizes different aspects of human behavior.

Biological Roots of Moral Development Assignment OVERVIEW You will summarize the assigned readings and devise a lesson plan in the context of higher education. Teaching skills are essential in academia. Reading for comprehension is one thing, and reading for the purpose of teaching is another. You will be given opportunities to read for the purpose of teaching in the context of higher education while thinking about and devising plans for how to deliver of the content of the readings. INSTRUCTIONS Details: Read Chapter 19-22 1. While completing the assigned readings for the Module: Week, think about which topic to cover in your lecture for college students. State your topic and come up 3-4 objectives. The first heading in the paper should be “Topic and Objectives.” When listing objectives, start with “After this lecture, students will be able to…” 2. The second heading should be “Summary of the Lecture Content.” Citing the assigned readings (with pages as necessary), summarize the content to be delivered in class. Your summary should be at least 2 pages, double-spaced. Do not go over 3 pages. The goal is not to discuss all of the details to be discussed in class but to summarize the lecture content noting the most important concepts in a coherent manner (showing their connections to the overall topic and objectives). 3. Provide a 2-page, double-spaced, lesson plan for an hour-long lecture on the chosen topic. You can be creative here, but provide an outline of the lecture followed by concrete in-class activity/discussion ideas. Further instructions: 1. This assignment is for your future teaching opportunities, so think concretely about your teaching context as a doctoral-level instructor and make it as useful for you as possible. 2. Use current APA format with appropriate citations and headings as well as a reference page, but do not include the title and abstract. Please see the Summary and Lesson Plan page under the Summary and Lesson Plan Resources for a link to Bloom’s Taxonomy information to consider as your write your objectives. Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool. Ch .19 The Neurobiological Bases of Empathic Concern for Others There has been a remarkable increase in theory and research on the neurobiological foundations of empathy, sympathy, compassion, prosocial behavior, and altruism in recent years. In this chapter, we examine how empathic concern for others is connected to genetic, neurophysiological, hormonal, and autonomic physiological functioning. Neurobiological researchers take various positions on the extent to which empathy and related constructs are reflective of morality, precursors to morality, or fundamental building blocks of morality. Our position conforms to the latter view: Empathy is a primary motivational force for caring behaviors toward others in need (de Waal, 2008). As a basic, essential element ...

Part 1: Many people think that human development means childhood development from birth to adolescence. This assumption had been supported by the developmental theories of Freud and Piaget. However, we will learn throughout this course that development does not end at the start of adulthood; it continues till the end-of-life. This is the life span perspective of development. Describe the importance of the life span perspective of development. Describe some of the main hallmarks of each one of these groups, using your own life experiences and observations explain why each one of these areas is important to study. ChildhoodAdolescenceAdulthoodOld Age Justify your answers with appropriate reasoning and research from your text and course readings. Comment on the postings of at least two peers, and provide an analysis of each peer’s postings while also suggesting specific additions or clarifications for improving the discussion question response. Part 2: Several theories attempt to describe human development. Briefly describe how Freud, Erickson, and Piaget developed their theories.Explain why there is much criticism about race, ethnicity, gender, and social and economic status when it comes to human growth and development theories.Choose two theories, each from a different area (e.g., psychoanalytic, cognitive, and behavioral or social cognitive theories). Briefly describe their main features, explain their major similarities and differences .

Discussion: Alternative Psychologies (Due 1/17/18) Thus far in your experience as a psychology student, you have been introduced to the field of psychology in terms of the mind and its functions in relationship to human behavior. Most introductory psychology textbooks and resources for other psychology classes emphasize a cause-and-effect scientific model, which typifies traditional psychology in the United States and the Western hemisphere in general. Throughout this course and in your course text, you read about Western psychology, which is representative of the practice of psychology in the United States. Alternative psychologies evolved independently of Western psychology because they are suitable for the needs of non-Western cultures. One notable difference is that alternative psychologies prioritize collective or group processes over isolated individual processes. Alternative psychologies view individuals as reflections of the larger culture or society. While the various alternative psychologies do have differences, they also have common themes such as those outlined in your course text: meaning-making, collective construction of psychological reality, time-dependent processes, and normative explanations. Liberation psychology, which is one type of alternative psychology, has been used to address the needs of the poor and the oppressed in Latin America. With liberation psychology, the focus is on social change. Social change is possible when attempts are made to improve the conditions of the entire community rather than to only address the needs of one specific individual within the group. Additionally, this type of alternative psychology makes a difference by addressing challenges of the native people where they live, in their professions, and in the world around them. Liberation psychology also helps people understand what they need in order to facilitate change. To prepare for this Discussion: · Review Chapter 6 in your textbook, Toward a Global Psychology: Theory, Research, Intervention, and Pedagogy. Pay particular attention to the sections about alternative psychologies and liberation psychology. · Referring to the video clips located in this week’s Optional Resources as examples, utilize the internet to identify one video that illustrates how liberation psychology empowers individuals to address their challenges. · After viewing your selected video, identify the issues that were particularly challenging for the individuals in the video. Focus on two issues of particular interest to you. · Reflect on how the common themes of alternative psychologies are evidenced in liberation psychology. · Consider Walden University’s Mission for Social Change, which is to create scholar-practitioners who can effect positive social change. With these thoughts in mind:By Day 3 Post a description of the video you selected. Specify two issues that were particularly challenging for the individuals in the video. Explain how liberation psychology co.

Create a Do-It-Yourself Professional Development Plan Background: According to NAEYC, effective practices involving technology “allow children to explore digital materials in the context of human interactions, with an adult as mediator and co-player” (NAEYC, 2012, p. 1). Technology has changed the socio-cultural environment globally, and we, as educators of young children, need to change how we approach social and emotional support for our children. The perceptions of the effects computers and other technology tools have on social and emotional development of young children may influence the acceptance and use of technology in early care and education settings. This is also true for children with special needs who may benefit from interactive media as well as assistive technologies (AT). Successful technology integration is more than just having technology available. Your technology integration should reflect effective classroom practices. Once you have examined what level of access you have and what possibilities this access affords you, it is time to address your own comfort level with the technology. You can then begin to seek out professional development opportunities online and outside of your current setting to begin to connect with other educators exploring the same challenges and seeking solutions. To complete this assignment Please view the following: Using Technology to Support Young Children's Social and Emotional Development PowerPoint Why Social & Emotional Learning? Selected examples of effective classroom practice involving technology tools and interactive media After reviewing the DIY Professional Development page : Select a minimum of two resources from the Resource Roundup (resources are listed by topic). Create a four-to five-page paper (not including title and reference pages) that addresses the following: 1. Discuss the technological tools you would like to introduce to the infants and toddler you work with (or will work with in the future). 2. Explain how the selected technological tools will impact the social and emotional development of your selected group. Could this have been achieved without technology? 3. Assess the anticipated steps you must take to ensure that you safely integrate technology while supporting children’s social and emotional development. 4. Analyze whether the integration of technology is feasible based on the ages/stages of the children you will work and the time and resources. Your paper must be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. In addition to the course text, utilize at least two scholarly sources to support your points.
