1. Growth and development are continuous processes influenced by maturational, environmental, and genetic factors that follow predictable sequences, though the timing varies between individuals.
2. Development proceeds from simple to complex actions and occurs from the head down and from the center of the body outward.
3. Certain developmental stages are more critical than others, such as the first 10-12 weeks after conception which impact congenital anomalies.
The document summarizes theories of growth and development including Erikson's psychosocial development theory and Kohlberg's moral development theory. Erikson's theory outlines 8 stages of development from infancy to old age defined by psychosocial crises and the development of ego strengths. Kohlberg's theory describes 3 levels and 6 stages of moral reasoning development from obedience to rules to principled moral reasoning. The document also discusses factors influencing growth such as heredity, environment, intelligence and principles of development including continuity and predictability.
During the first year of life, infants experience significant physical, cognitive, linguistic, and emotional growth and development. Caregivers monitor an infant's physical growth through regular checkups and maintaining a growth chart. Infants develop motor skills and learn to grasp objects and sit up on their own. Establishing routines for sleeping, eating, and playtime is important for development. Infants begin to understand language and may say their first words by the end of the year. Their brains grow rapidly, so interaction and reading are encouraged over excessive TV time. Caregivers should ensure infant safety by maintaining a secure environment, using approved car seats correctly, and preventing hazards like choking, burns, and falls. When infants are sick or hospitalized
This document discusses the principles of growth and development. It defines growth as the net increase in size or mass of tissues, while development refers to increasing skills and capacity over time. The document outlines 10 principles of growth and development: continuity, sequentiality, generality to specificity, differentiality, proceeding from head to feet, from center to outward, dependence on maturation and learning, from simple to complex, personal nature, and internal drive. Specific examples are provided to illustrate each principle.
The document provides an overview of several theories of growth and development. It discusses Piaget's stages of cognitive development, including the sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational stages. It also outlines Kohlberg's stages of moral development, Erikson's psychosocial theory and stages, Fowler's stages of faith development, Vygotsky's sociocultural theory, and Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences. Additionally, it summarizes Freud's psychosexual stages of development and Gilligan's theory of moral development. The document defines key concepts such as growth, development, and provides characteristics of growth and development.
Growth and development are influenced by many interdependent genetic and environmental factors. Genetic factors like sex, race, and hereditary conditions impact physical attributes. Prenatal factors such as maternal health, nutrition, infections and substance abuse can also affect fetal growth. Postnatally, nutrition, health, socioeconomic status, environment, and learning experiences further shape a child's development. Maintaining favorable conditions optimizes normal growth and maturation.
The document outlines typical developmental milestones for children from birth to 4 years of age. It discusses milestones in areas such as motor skills, language, social/emotional development, and more. Milestones are grouped by age ranges including months, years, and some specific ages. The document cautions that children reach milestones at different times and notes signs that could indicate developmental delays.

Key stages of growth and development are outlined for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-aged children.
The document summarizes Edward Thorndike's laws of learning, which include primary laws like readiness, exercise, and effect as well as secondary laws like primacy, recency, and intensity. It provides educational implications for each law, such as arousing student curiosity to enhance readiness, providing practice opportunities to strengthen learning according to the law of exercise, and emphasizing important concepts at the end of a lesson to aid recency. The document also briefly outlines several subordinate laws of learning involving concepts like multiple responses, associative shifting, and pre-potency of elements.
Growth refers to increases in size and weight, while development describes qualitative changes that lead to improved functioning. There are seven principles of development: continuous development from birth to death, progression from general to specific changes, sequential changes like puberty following physical maturity, unique timing of changes in each individual, interrelated social, mental, and emotional development, interaction between heredity and environment, and interaction between maturation and learning. Development involves physical, intellectual, emotional, and social growth over one's lifetime.
The document discusses the differences and principles of growth and development, noting that growth refers to physical changes while development includes cognitive, social, and emotional changes, and that development follows patterns from general to specific responses and is influenced by both heredity and environment. It also explains the educational significance of understanding growth and development principles for teachers and parents to support students' learning and needs.
This document summarizes principles of growth and development from several perspectives. It discusses what growth and development are, outlining physical and functional changes. It also discusses maturation, noting it refers to changes that occur primarily as a function of aging. Six maturation principles are outlined related to biological basis, chronological vs maturational age, plateaus/regression, readiness for tasks, and training timing. Seven principles of development are also defined related to direction, control, learning/maturation, complexity, continuity, specificity, and individuality. Erik Erikson's eight stages of psychosocial development and various aspects of prenatal, motor, language, cognitive, and moral development are also summarized.

Development of Learners at Various Stage by Annah Belgira.pptxAnnahPacardoBelgira
This document discusses development from prenatal stages through early childhood. It describes the three prenatal stages of germinal, embryonic, and fetal, covering weeks 1-40 of development. Key aspects of development are then outlined for infancy/toddlerhood and early childhood, including physical, cognitive, language, motor, social, and emotional development. The stages and milestones discussed provide an overview of growth and changes from conception through age 5.
1. The document discusses growth and development in children from 0-12 years. It defines key terms like growth, maturation, and development and outlines factors that influence a child's growth such as heredity, nutrition, environment, and illnesses.
2. The predictable patterns of development are discussed, including progression from head to toe and central axis outward. Development occurs through maturation and learning at different rates for each child.
3. The document covers all aspects of physical growth including height, weight, body proportions, and development of body systems like the brain, heart, and digestive system from birth through age 12.
The document discusses human development from conception to death. It examines how development involves physical, cognitive, and social changes throughout the lifespan. The study of human development is important for understanding typical growth patterns as well as identifying atypical development. It has practical applications in fields like education, psychology, and childcare. Child development specifically looks at growth patterns from conception through adolescence.
1. Growth and development refers to the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes that occur throughout the lifespan.
2. Physical growth involves increases in height, weight, and maturation of organs and body systems, while development includes functional and behavioral changes.
3. Development is influenced by both hereditary and environmental factors such as nutrition, health, socioeconomic status, education, and relationships.
Growth and development refer to the physical, cognitive, and social changes that occur throughout the human lifespan. Growth is quantitative and refers to physical changes, while development includes both physical and qualitative changes. Development follows certain principles, including that it occurs in stages from general to specific abilities and is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors such as nutrition, stimulation, and socioeconomic conditions. Development includes changes in intellectual, physical, social, and emotional domains from childhood through adolescence. Parents play an important role in children's cognitive, social, and emotional development, while peers also impact social development as children enter school.
This document discusses individual differences across the lifespan, beginning with infancy from birth to 2 years. During infancy, physical development is rapid as infants triple in weight and grow one-third in height in the first year. Cognitively, infants develop object permanence and categorization abilities. Socially and emotionally, infants begin to smile at others by 2 months and express emotions like anger and sadness by 6 months.

Piagets theory of cognitive development, its stages and important terma about the theory
B.ed first year notes.
Development describes growth throughout the lifespan from conception to death, including physical, emotional, intellectual, social and personality changes. It involves both biological and environmental factors. Child development encompasses physical, cognitive, social and emotional growth. It follows general patterns from birth through adolescence but with wide individual differences due to heredity and environment. Understanding child development principles helps ensure children's needs are met at each stage.
This document discusses human development across the lifespan. It covers the main stages of development from prenatal to adolescence. The key points are:
1. Development involves biological, cognitive, and socio-emotional processes that begin at conception and continue throughout life.
2. The main stages discussed are prenatal, infancy, early childhood, late childhood, and adolescence. Each stage involves physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development.
3. Development is influenced by both nature (heredity) and nurture (environment). The roles of parents and caregivers in supporting development are also emphasized.
Growth and development are continuous processes from conception to death. Growth refers to increases in physical size, while development is the progressive increase of skills and abilities. Maturation is the increase of competence depending on heredity. Growth and development proceed in an orderly sequence from head to tail and from gross motor skills to fine motor skills. Many interrelated factors influence growth and development, including heredity, environment, nutrition, hormones, illness or injury, and exercise. Growth and development rates vary between individuals.
After completing this class, students will be able to differentiate between growth and development, describe principles of growth and development, and list factors that influence it. Growth is a physical change in size, while development is an increase in complexity of function and skills. Development is influenced by maturation, environment, genetics, and occurs sequentially in a head-to-toe and center-to-extremities pattern. Factors like nutrition, family, health, culture and temperament also influence growth and development from conception through the lifespan.
The document provides an overview of growth and development from prenatal stages through infancy. It discusses physical, cognitive, emotional and social development at each stage. In the newborn stage, it describes normal measurements for weight, height, head circumference and vital signs. It also outlines important neonatal reflexes that facilitate development. In infancy, the document notes rapid physical growth and developmental milestones in motor skills, cognition and social interaction during the first year.

1. Principles of Growth and Development<br />1.Growth and development are continuous, orderly, sequential processes influenced by maturational, environmental, and genetic factors.<br />2.All humans follow the same pattern of growth and development.<br />3.The sequence of each stage is predictable, although the time of onset, the length of the stage, and the effects of each stage vary with the person.<br />4.Learning can either help or hinder the maturational process, depending of what is learned.<br />5.Each developmental stage has its own characteristics. For example, Piaget suggests that in the sensorimotor stage (birth to 2 years) children learn to coordinate simple motor tasks.<br />6.Growth and development occur in the cephalocaudal direction, that is, starting at the head and moving to the trunk, the legs, and the feet. This pattern is particularly obvious at birth, when the head of the infant is disproportionately large.<br />7.Growth and development occur in the proximal to distal direction, that is from the center of the body outward. For example, infants can roll over before they can grasp and object with the thumb and second finger.<br />8.Development proceeds from simple to complex, or from single acts to integrated acts. To accomplish the integrated act of drinking and swallowing from a cup, for example, the child must first learn a series of single acts: eye-hand coordination, grasping, hand-mouth coordination, controlled tipping of the cup, and then mouth, lip, and tongue movements to drink and swallow.<br />9.Development becomes increasingly differentiated. Differentiated development begins with a generalized response and progresses to a skilled specific response (eg, an infant’s initial response to a stimulus involves the total body; a 5-year-old child can respond more specifically with laughter or fear).<br />10.Certain stages of growth and development are more critical than others. It is known, for example, that the first 10 to 12 weeks after conception are critical. The incidence of congenital anomalies as a result of exposure to certain viruses, chemicals, or drugs is greater during this stage than others.<br />11.The pace of growth and development is uneven. It is known that growth is greater during infancy than during childhood. Asynchronous development is demonstrated by rapid growth of the head during infancy and the extremities at puberty. <br />
