Study Notes
Child Development and Growing Up
- Paradigm shift in education: Individual and societal demands are changing, requiring techno-pedagogic skills. Gap exists between previous and future educational visions.
- Course Focus: Understanding children across age groups, socio-political realities shaping childhood (e.g., family, school, neighborhood, community), and interdisciplinary perspectives (cross-cultural psychology, sociology, anthropology).
- Curriculum Focus: Course addresses marginalized children, differences, diversity, and stereotypes (e.g., slum children, girls, Dalit households).
- Block 1: Covers general development and learning concepts, including cognitive development (Piaget), psycho-social development (Erikson), and moral development (Kohlberg).
- Block 2: Addresses misconceptions about childhood and optimal development versus reality.
- Course Goal: To transform education to a constructive system focused on learner needs and collaborative learning.
Developmental Influences
- Heredity: Involves biological factors influencing structure, gender, physiological, and psychological characteristics inherited from ancestors. Also includes social inheritance. Ill health can affect development. Specific diseases can cause delays.
- Environment: Factors like socio-economic status, literacy, and occupation, as well as health, impact development. Allergies can lead to maladjustment, while nervous weaknesses/epilepsy can affect temperament and behavior.
- Endocrine Glands: Play a major role in metabolic activities and significantly influence emotions, intelligence, decision-making, and skills.
Developmental Principles
- Cephalo-caudal Principle: Development progresses from head-to-toe (e.g. infants control their head movement before their feet).
- Proximo-distal Principle: Development proceeds from the center of the body outward (e.g. full arm and forearm movement before fingertip control).
- Locomotion: Involves developmental sequence from creeping to crawling to walking, which varies in timing for each individual.
Development's Nature
- Integrated: Development is cumulative, integrating various elements into one whole. Development can move from part to whole, or vice versa.
- Predictable: Development follows a universal pattern; certain stages lead to others (e.g., standing before walking; drawing basic circles before intricate designs). Sequence is generally irreversible.
- Cumulative: Development involves changes throughout life, from conception to death. Early development influences later life; the rate, though generalized, may vary according to individual differences (e.g., brighter vs. less intelligent children will still follow the same general pattern). Premature birth might cause delays (a year) but children often catch up later.
