ReichShapiro (2018) 1-5
After watching the video (I suggest completing this handout while watching the video) and reading Reich-Shapiro (2018), answer the following questions in your own words:
- What is growth and development?
- What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
- What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
- How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
- What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
- What are the stages of child development?
1.What is growth and development?
Growth is the physical chance in a individual, the increase in size and the way cells multiple, growth has its greatest impact from infancy to adolescent.
Development refers to they increase in complexity, the change in behavior, knowledge and any form of skills a child acquires.
2.What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
All the different developmental domains affect development, where you group, age group, language, memory, physical changes, community, society, economic backgrounds and so on. Culture which we learn fro our peers at a very young age has a big impact in our developmental life and how we see people, things, situations or what we may think is right and wrong even how we may react emotionally.
3.What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Milestones refers to the accomplishments of a child, tracking their many skills. Sequence of development can be referred to as the way a child develops, the order of development not the time frame.
4.How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
The way a child is exposed from the beginning in the womb starts to create connections that will later on help them to connect pieces together. In a sense the more a child is exposed to and the more experiences the child has, the better the connections they will make when in a new situation. It is a connection where old learning meets new learning and vise versa.
5.What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical is referred to a child who falls under the “norm , atypical is a child who does not fall under the “norm”. Such attributes may be growth, behavior or milestones children achieve, where the child falls on the charts is what differentiates typical from atypical.
6.What are the stages of child development?
The 6 stages of child development are, prenatal development which begins with conception, and developing during pregnancy.
Infancy and Toddlerhood consist of the first two year of life.
Early Childhood transitions from two to six years of age.
Middle childhood commences from age six to eleven.
Hey Maria Kaye
This is Luis Martinez, I agree with you that development depending on weather if you are referring to growth or sequence development. Physical and sequence development do refer to the increase in complexity, the change in behavior, knowledge and any form of skills a child acquires.Growth is the physical chance in a individual, the increase in size and the way cells multiple, growth has its greatest impact from infancy to adolescent.
1.What is growth and development?
Growth and development is in the early stages of life form from babyhood to childhood, and from childhood to adolescence, and adolescence to adulthood.
2.What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
All the different development”s domains affect development, where you group, age group, language, memory, physical changes, community, society, economic backgrounds and so on. Some people might react emotionally.and some might be blunt about this!
3.What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
4.How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
When you review or practice something you’ve learned, dendrites actually grow between nerve cells in the network that holds that memory. Each time you review that knowledge, this mental manipulation increases activity along the connections between nerve cells. .And that makes the memory stay in your brain.
5.What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Atypical development is when development doesn’t follow the normal course. It could include things like learning and social disabilities and disorders, where Typical is referred to a child who follow the normal course
6.What are the stages of child development?
NEWBORN
During the first month of life, newborns exhibit automatic responses to external stimuli. In other words, a newborn will turn her head toward your hand when you stroke her cheek or grab your finger when you place it in her hand. A newborn is able to see close-up objects, recognize certain smells, smile or cry to indicate a need, and move her head from side to side.
Newborns may show signs developmental disabilities, such as spina bifida, genetic disorders and fetal alcohol syndrome.
2. INFANT
Infants develop new abilities quickly in the first year of life. At three to six months, an infant can control his head movements and bring his hands together. By six to nine months old, an infant can sit without support, babble and respond to his name. Between nine and twelve months old, a baby can pick up objects, crawl and even stand with support.
Slow development in infants may be signs of Down’s syndrome and other developmental disabilities.
3. TODDLER
As children reach the ages between one and three years, toddlers learn to walk without help, climb stairs and jump in place. They can hold a crayon, draw a circle, stack one block on top of another, use short sentences and even follow simple instructions.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends screening for autism at 18 to 24 months, or whenever a parent or health care professional has a concern.
4. PRESCHOOL
Between the ages of three and five years, children refine their motor skills. They can throw a ball overhand, skip and hop, stand on one foot for ten seconds or longer, dress themselves, and draw a person with features.
Signs of developmental disabilities, such as cerebral palsy, may appear during this stage of development.
5. SCHOOL AGE
School age children are six to 12 years old. They are capable, confident, independent and responsible. Peer relationships, particularly relationships with friends of the same gender, are important to school age children. The older school age child begins to develop sexual characteristics.
Signs of ADHD, such as trouble staying focused and being easily distracted, may appear in school age children.
Some stages can caused children to change rapidly as they grow. Many of these changes are physical. Other changes are cognitive, which means the changes affect the way children think and learn. Child development often occurs in stages, with the majority of children hitting specific developmental landmarks by the time they reach a certain age.
3.What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
A developmental milestone is an ability that most children achieve by a certain age. These milestones can involve physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and communication skills such as walking, sharing with others, expressing emotions, recognizing familiar sounds, and talking.
1. What is growth and development?
Growth is the change in an individual, when someone who use to be hyperactive than change to be calmer as time goes on. Development is a lifelong process in physical changes in behavior and emotions.
2. What affects development including ecological and contextual factors?
Different up bringing affect development, a child adopt what they see in the home or environment. That has a big impact in a child developmental life.
3. What’s the difference between development milestones and the sequence of development?
Milestone is when a child typically develop the age range to where most children master skills. Sequence is the years of detailed observation of infants toddlers and children.
4. How does learning connect to the brain neural development?
From a child is in the womb the connections starts, when the child is born and get exposed to things that plays a big role the development of the brain.
5. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical development is a blend in speech in toddlers, when a child has certain condition. Atypical development is a physical changes that happens out of the normal.
6. What are the stages of a child development?
The stages are prenatal development which begins with conception, and developing during pregnancy. Infancy and Toddlerhood consist 1st two year of life. Early childhood transitions from two to six years of age. Middle childhood commences from age six to eleven.
1. growth is physical development changes. An increase in size. Development refers to an increase in complexity, also a change from something simple to complex which often refers to knowledge and skills.
2. All the different domains affect development. starting with groups ,where you group, your age group, the language you speak. society and even economic backgrounds.
3.The difference between developmental milestones and sequence of development is that developmental milestones focuses on major accomplishments. these milestones are to track motor skills. milestones normally refer to typical range. sequence of development which is more along the lines predicted along a developmental pathway.which is pretty common with children.
4.The way that learning connects to the brain /neutral development is the way a child is disclosed from the very beginning while still in the womb. which will evidently help that child connect the dots when out of the womb and is a young child. for example when a mother sings the abc’s to the child while still in the womb that child will most likely know the alphabet at an early age. A child at my job who is 2 years old knows the alphabet and the child’s mother said that she would play it every day while she was pregnant.
5.The difference between typical and atypical development is that typical is when a child follows the normal course and atypical is when a child doesn’t follow the normal course. which excludes things like learning. The lady in the video used the example that typical child start walking at 12 months and atypical child could walk after 12 months.
6. The 6 stages of child development is prenatal development that begins with conception , developing during pregnancy. ( birth through about two years)
Then the preoperational stage which is from age 2 to the age of 7 during this stage children develop memory and imagination.
then comes the concrete operational stage which is from the ages of 7-11 , during this stage children become more aware of their feelings and feelings other then their own.
then there’s the formal stage which begins from 11 and older.
1. What is growth and development?
Answer:
growth = refers to an increase in body size such as: length or height and weight. Also in the size of organs as well. That process begins with the human beings between birth to ages 1 or maybe 2 years old, children do grow really rapidly. Children tend to grow a similar amount each year until the next major spurt occurs in early adolescence years.
development = biological, psychological and emotional changes that process in human beings between the ages of birth and into adolescence. Also in development, the individual human progresses from dependency to increasing autonomy.
2. What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
Answer: It’s many affects to this development such as a person age group, language, memory, physical changes, community, society, economic backgrounds. I do believe community & economic background has a big impact in a child developmental life.
3. What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Answer: The difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development is sequence of development refers to children learning different skills the order of development not the time frame. and milestones are things most children can do by a certain age.
4. How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Answer: From the child in the womb the connections start to happen and once the child is born and he/she started to get exposed to things. the more the child is exposed to thing and experiences they better and greater connection the child will make in other situations.
5. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Answer: The difference between typical and atypical is atypical development is when development doesn’t follow the normal when typical is when the development does follow the norm such as: growth, behavior or milestones.
6. What are the stages of child development?
Answer:
* Newborn Development (birth-1mo): this stage is when an new born exhibits movements such as ( faces, certain smells, smile, crys for certain needs, movements with heads)
* Infant Development (1mo-12mo): this stage is when an infant is able to sit or stand without support from mother or cushion, response to her/his name, can crawl maybe start to walk around this development as well, pick up object, etc.
feeding themselves, drawing.
* Toddler Development (1yr-3yr): this stage is when an toddler is displaying ritualistic behavior, feeding themselves, drawing, seeing, hearing, tasting, touching, and smelling, saying single words, then sentence, playing with others, taking turns, doing fantasy play.
* Preschooler Development (3yr-5yr): this stage is when an preschooler they play, learn, speak, behave. As children grow into early childhood, their world will begin to open up. They will become more independent and begin to focus more on adults and children outside of the family.
* School Age Development (6r-12yr): this stage is when an school age they are more capable, independent and some what responsible. begins to develop secondary sexual characteristics. Peer relationships become important here and are typically with members of the same sex.
* Adolescent Development (13yr-21yr) 3 different stages of this stage “early adolescence, middle adolescence, and late adolescence/young adulthood”): this stage is when going through many changes (physical, intellectual, personality and social developmental). Adolescence begins at puberty as well.
1) What is growth and development?
Answer
Growth: is the physical changes that happen to the body such as wight, height and the way cellule multiply. it happens swiftly in the early age.
Development: is a process of maturity, it refers to increase in complexity. it is what individuals acquire in life such as knowledge, skill, and behavior.
2) What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
Answer
The development begins to be affected from the prenatal stage, alcohol, smoking, malnutrition of pregnant woman affects the development of the child. In addition, many other factors impact development such as environment, culture, family value, social interaction. So, every corner in life affects development.
3) What is the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Answer
Development milestone is the abilities and skills that build during a certain age. For example, children could walk then talk or verse versa. The sequence development is learn different skills by the order of development.
4) How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Answer
As the child grow up his or her brain grow as well. So the more the brain is developed the more different skills are build this process helps to extend learning abilities.
5) What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Answer
It is acknowledged that development is the knowledge, behavior and skill that distinguish individual. The normal process of development is called typical development and the out of normal way is called atypical development.
6) What are the stages of child development?
Answer
There are two principal stages of child development:
1. prenatal stage which is characterized by the development of the fetus in the womb through germinal, embryonic, critical, and fetal periods
2. postpartum stage which in turn is divided into several stage. Those stage are illustrated by many searcher and psychologist. For example, according to Piaget there is four stages of development:
a) sensory motor stage from birth to two year
enfants base on their sensations and movement to recognize the world
b) preoperational from two years to seven year in this stage children begin to think symbolically, and they acquire language.
c) concrete operational from seven year to 12 years. In this stage children begin to think logically.
d) formal operational 12 year to adulthood in this stage a certain maturity begin and kids starts to think more about moral, abstract, and they think reasonably.
What is growth and development?
Growth is the physical change such as body size, noses and ears.
Development is an increase in complexity as a change from something simple to more complex development refers to knowledge and behavior and skills that are learned and refined.
What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
Depending on the development environment, physiological maturity,neurological muscle,and the skeleton systems of children determine when they are capable of learning, development continues and it is affected by the environment for a child.
What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Milestones refers to the major marker of accomplishment for a child. The sequence of development is composed of predictable steps along a development pathway of children. This process is called continuity and critical consideration. It is placed on the order in which the child develops, not so much the time frame for the child develops.
How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Brain and neural development connection is the main important lesson on this assignment. I have learned the effect of the smoking cigarette, drinking alcohol punishment that affect the development of the children proper nutrition and then as well as getting proper prenatal care in prenatal checkups effects on the development of the fetus. SO, the brain increases in size and complexity and it has neural connections
What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical development means within the norm. Atypical development is the term that we used it for a child that is outside of the norm.
What are the stages of child development?
The stages of child development are physical domain, the motor domain,perceptual domain, cognitive domain, Speech & Language domain and social emotional development.
1. What is growth and development?
Growth is changes that are physical for example us getting taller. Development is a change in complexity for example people develop more maturity. The difference between growth and development is growth is physical and development is inner intangible change.
2. What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
Ecological factors and contextual factors are things that affect us because of our environment, such as finance, our health, our culture, the way we are growing up and education. All these variations and more can shape is into who we are. The peers we grow up with, as well as the generation in which we are born, or our neighborhood and social standing also have a big influence in development.
3. What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Developmental milestones are indicators of accomplishments, in other words developmental milestones are used to track new skills, actions or events that mark development. Sequence of development is the order in which a child usually does something, for example crawling usually comes before walking.
4. How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
The brain makes neural connections in order to learn. The neural connections form by connecting new learning to old learning through life experiences or memories.
5. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical is usually what is considered normal in terms of development. Atypical is considered not normal in terms of development.
6. What are the stages of child development?
1. Prenatal development (conception- birth)
2. Infancy and toddlerhood (first two years of life)
3. Early childhood (2 years- 6 years)
4. Middle childhood (6 years- 11 years)
What is growth and development?
Growth is the change of physical appearance due to a multiplication of cells starting from the beginning of life and continues on. These cells enlarge and in return we get taller, arms get longer, ears, nose etc. Development is the process of cognitive and behavioral growth that continues to develop as we get older and learn new things.
What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
A childs development can be affected from when its just a tiny fetus based on its mothers actions. These actions include but are not limited too, Consuming alcohol, smoking, drug use, age of conception etc. Development is also affected by the time period from which a child was born, their socioeconomic status, culture and family values.
What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Developmental milestone is a milestone tracker based on a specific age group.It focuses the beginning stages of a childs motor skills, social and emotional cognitive type skills, Language skills and other skills the child may learn as they grow and develop. Where as the sequence of development is more predictable and focuses on the order of child development and not the time frame.
How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Development begins from prenatal development is the most important within the first two years of life. Neural connections grow with the child and as the child continues to advance and learn new things, its neural connections either connect with old, similar learning and sticks or creates new connections if it has nothing to connect to or familiarize with and forms a new connection in the brain, which may take longer, but the cycle continues.
What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical development is when a child develops within the norms such as their motor, behavioral or cognitive skills. Atypical development is when a child develops outside the norm and hasn’t developed at the rate expected.
What are the stages of child development?
The stages of child development are:
Physical development
Cognitive development
language and social emotional development
Fine motor skills development
Perceptual development
Some other factors that affect development are financial resources which affect our food and shelter, the opportunities we are exposed too as well as advantages and disadvantages, A mothers education level etc
Hey Taina
Certainly,I agree that the five stages of development is where children develop skills in five main areas of development.
Taina — Thanks for your post! What does Reich-Shapiro (2018) say are the stages of early childhood developemnt?
Luis Martinez
What is growth and development?
Child Growth and Development s refers to the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional growth of young children starting from prenatal development all the way through middle childhood including prior stages of growth and development that are associated within the spectrum of typical and atypical. Both stages are based from the theories of development that covers health, nutrition, play and the family.
What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
Heredity is the transmission of physical characteristics including certain diseases that are passed from parents to children through their genes. Certainly, environmental factors play a role in early childhood development, physical surroundings and geographical conditions of the place where child lives in affects the formation of his/her identity. As well including his/her social environment and the relationships with family and peers. For instance, we often perceive that it is easy to understand that a well-nurtured child does better than a deprived one. But we must keep in mind, that every child is different, they think differently, and they can often change their paths as the grow up. Nutrition, Weather if the child is properly feed or not by its guardians, this can affect later stages of growth and development. Familial Influence, family values, cultural beliefs and perceptions.
What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
First of all is sequence, the order in which children typically develop, while the second is milestones, the age range during which most children master particular skills. Milestones mark the skill we expect children to attempt, practice, and master by certain age level. For instance, by the time a child reaches first grade, he or she is expected to read proficiently meaning being on level that meets to fulfill the first-grade requirement.
How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
The crucial stages of early childhood experiences do affect the brain development. Children are born ready to learn, ready to embark on new journey of learning/exploration, children act like little scientist exploring every corner of their surroundings and have many skills to learn over many years. Nurturing a child is achieved through understanding their needs and responding sensitively helps to protect children’s brains from stress.
What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical refers to what is seen as normal within childhood spectrum basically having positive outcomes regarding with growth, development, milestones, whereas atypical refers outside the norm, meaning a child does not properly fall into what is seen as good development.
What are the stages of child development?
There are 5 stages of child development are the fallowing newborn, Infant, toddler, preschool, and school age, durig these transitional stages children developed skills in the five main areas of development. To name a few are cognitive development, social and emotional development, speech/ language development, fine motor skill development, and gross motor skill development.
1. What is growth and development?
– Growth is a change in your appearance like an increase in size/changes in the body. Development is becoming more knowledgeable meaning you’re learning a lot more and taking more information in and a change in behavior.
2. What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
-what affects development is the environment, culture, and family values.
3. What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
-Development milestones a typical range of any type of skills a child learns and behaviors. The sequence of development is predictable steps along a development pathway, common among children. The difference is milestones are expected in children because of observations done and they are supposed to accomplish new things and sequences are predicted because of development time frames.
5. How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
-Neural connections as a child grows are a way that a child can bring in new learning that can connect to anything else they may have learned.
6. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
-typical means within the norm meaning normal and atypical means outside the norm meaning its not really normal. The difference is a typical child development is exactly how it’s supposed to be in growth , behavior, and milestones while an atypical may lack these qualities.
7. What are the stages of child development?
-1.physical domain- actual growth of a child
2.moter domain- fine motor skills and their gross motor skills
3.Perceptual Domain- how a child perceives things.
4.cognitive domain-how a child thinks
5.speech and language
6social/emotional
1. What is growth and development?
-Growth refers to physical changes and development refers to knowledge, behavior and skills that are learned and refined.
2.What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
-Development is affected by many different factors such as environment, culture, nutrition, socio-economic status and family values.
3.What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
-Developmental milestones are major markers of accomplishment. Milestones track the skills of children as they develop. Milestones represent what a typical child should be able to do at that age. Sequence of development is the order in which a child develops. For example they crawl before they walk.
4.How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
-As children grow their neural connections in the brain bring in new learning connections that connect to things they learned in the past. When something new is learned and is connected to an old learning those connections stick. And if there’s new learning that happens, and it doesn’t have anything to connect to that is similar to, then they have to make new formations and new connections in the brain. The brain also naturally gets rid of information you learn but don’t use over time.
5.What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
-Typical defines a child who develops within the normal range and atypical is used for a child that is outside the normal range.
6.What are the stages of child development?
-The first stage of development is prenatal development which begins when the child is first conceived and ends when the child is born. The health of the mother, nutrition, teratogens, and labor and delivery are primary concerns.
-The second stage is infancy and toddlerhood which are the first two years of life. During this time period there is dramatic growth and change. A dependent newborn becomes an independent toddler within a relatively short period of time. Caregivers are also transformed as they learn to meet the needs of a growing child. What happens during these first years is the foundation for all the stages that follow.
-The third stage of development is early childhood from ages two to six-year-old. During this time period children are learning language, gaining a sense of self and developing greater independence, while also beginning to learn the workings of the physical world.
-The fourth stage of development is middle childhood from ages 6-11 years. During this time period children continue to learn and grow, and much of their experience is now connected to their involvement in the wider world such as school, friends and after-school activities. At this age children assess their abilities and accomplishments by making comparisons between self and others.
Module 2 Assignment #1: Introduction to Child Growth & Development
1. What is growth and development?
-Growth refers to physical changes a child goes through such as how the child increases in size or sections of the child’s body. This is a continuous life process and moves at a faster pace with infants and adolescents. Development is the increase in complexity experienced by the child changing from simple to complex. The child acquires different skills such as speaking, learning, expressing feelings and connecting with others.
2. What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
-Environment, and culture influence development. Ecological factors relate to things that affect us in our environment and will impact development, such as – financial resources, food, shelter, health and nutrition etc. Contextual factors relate to how any one of the various ecological factors affect a child’s development. For example – financial resources – if the child’s parents have money, they will be able to provide daily meals for the child and might contribute to him/her being healthy.
3. What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
-Developmental milestone refers to the ages and stages of a child’s development. During this milestone, the child will develop certain skills (cognitive, language, motor) and abilities that are normally used to gauge his or her development. This varies between children. On the other hand, sequence of development is when a child’s growth follows a known and predictable course. This process is known as continuity and emphasis is placed on the order in which development took place and not the time frame. For example, we can predict that a child will roll over and bush up before he/she starts sitting and will sit before starting to walk.
4. How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
-Neural connections are formed in the brain as the child grows. Neuro connections take in new learning and connect it to old learning and makes a connection which will stick. Whenever new learning does not have anything to connect to, new formation and connections will have to be made within the brain, and that takes a longer time.
5. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
-Typical development refers to development happening in a normal range or time. For example, we expect children when they are two (2) years old to start saying basic speaking. On the other hand, atypical relates to development occurring outside of the typical range or time. For example, if the child reaches two (2) years old and is not making any sound, it is a possibility, something might be wrong.
6. What are the stages of child development?
The stages of development occur within six (6) domains and they are:
(a) Physical domain – relates to the growth of the child and is driven by heredity and influenced by the environment. Changes in body shape and size are included in physical development.
(b) Motor domain – Relates to Fine and Gross motor skills. Fine motor skills are the smaller actions the child does with wrists, hands, fingers, and toes. Gross motor skills are larger movements the child makes including – running, jumping, skipping, walking.
(c) Perceptual domain – Talks about the way the child takes in, interprets and understands information received.
(d) Cognitive domain – Mentions how the child thinks as his/her intellectual ability expands.
(e) Speech & Language domain – Refers to how the child is able to communicate through symbols, gestures, written and spoken words.
(f) Social or Emotional domain – This relates to how the child feels about his/her self and others.
1)What are growth and development?
-Growth refers to physical growth and development is the mental growth referring to the changes in behavior, knowledge and the changes from simple to complex thought processes.
2)What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
-Development is affected by the persons environment in terms of social and cultural influences where one grows up, the people one grows up with, and the finances in that specific place can influence ones identity and development.
3)What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
-Developmental milestones are targets of what the average child is capable of doing at a certain age that includes social, physical, mental, speech/communication, and physical skills. The sequence of development is the rate or speed in which the child is developing the skills in average order.
3)How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
-Learning connects to the brain/neural development because people intake information from once the brain is developed and make connections to old information and use them for their development to help form memory connections.
4)What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
-Typical development refers to the range skills acquired from the majority of that age group while atypical refers to the minority or the lack of skills acquired from that age or cultural group.
5)What are the stages of child development?
-There are five stages of child development newborn, infant, toddler, preschool, and school age.
What is growth and development?
Growth refers to physical changes. It’s the increase in size that continues throughout life. Development refers to an increase in complexity, from simple to more complex. Rate of development varies from child to child.
What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
Environment affects development, along with culture and family values. They influence what a child is likely to learn. Other factors include maternal behaviors, proper nutrition, overall health, family structure, and financial resources.
What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
Milestones are major markers of accomplishment. It’s useful in tracking the emergence of motor skills, social and emotional skills, cognitive skills, and language skills. While the Sequence of development is predictable steps along a developmental pathway. It focuses more on the order in which children develop versus the time frame in which they develop. The sequence of development follows patterns.
How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Learning connects to the brain/neural development because children bring in new learning that they then can connect to old learning to create connections. When connections are made during the learning process information tends to stick better. When children are young it is good for them to take in all the information around them and form new connections so later down the line they are connecting new concepts to previous memories making it easier for them to learn.
What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical development takes a look at where most children fall when developing certain skills at certain ages. When children fall within this common range or norm they are considered typical. Atypical is when a child falls outside of that norm or range, their time frame on development in certain areas may be significantly different from other children.
What are the stages of child development?
Prenatal Development beings with contraception. This is when all of the major structures of the body are forming.
Infancy and Toddlerhood are the first two years of life. Here is where dramatic growth and change occurs. A dependent newborn becomes a more independent toddler quickly. What happens in these first couple of years is the foundation for all the stages that continue to happen.
Early childhood from ages two to six children are learning language, gaining a sense of self and developing greater independence.
Middle Childhood from ages six to eleven children continue to learn and grow. Much of their experience is now connected to their involvement in the wider world.
+What is growth and development?
Growth is the progressive increase of a child physically and development is the increase of knowledge of skills like speaking walking or a child expressing their feelings.
+What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
A child’s culture, environment, and social factors affect a child’s development.
+What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
The sequence of development is a definite order of milestones that children and young people
The difference between Developmental milestones and the sequence of development is that Development milestones are stages that a child achieves certain milestones and sequence of development is an order of milestones that children and young people meet and accomplish.
+How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Learning connects to the brain/neural development because children learn by building brain connections neural pathways, The more these pathways are used the stronger they get.
+What is the difference between typical and atypical development? The difference between typical and atypical development is that typical development is where the majority of children fall into as they are developing and atypical development is when a child falls out of this typical development by falling behind or being way ahead of their peers
+What are the stages of child development?
The stages of development are
Prenatal Development – before birth starting with conception
Infancy and toddler hood – first two years
Early Childhood – 2- 6 years old
Middle Child hood- 6-11 years old
1. What is growth and development?
– Growth is physical change expressed by increase in the morphological increase, or biological variation of the child over time.
– Development is increase from simple to complex shape and behavioral and mental skills through the process of learning and obtaining culture and values.
2. What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
– Ecological factors of development are general health of the child, and health of the mother, educational level of the mother, nutrition, food, financial resources, cultural practices and various opportunities
– Contextual factors of Development are in general historical, social, geographic, economic. The most important ones are: Normative-age graded, Normative history-graded, non-normative life influences Socioeconomical status.
3. What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
– Developmental milestones are characteristic progressive steps referring to social, emotional and language tracking steps, while sequences of development are observation of children at different ages.
– Sequences of development are common steps in the continuity in the timeframe of development.
4. How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
Brain/Neural development is the contact in the child’s brain between cells at the step of new learning that enhances the knowledge process and the selection of new matter of information that the brain prunes during the learning steps.
5. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
Typical development follows a predictable progression of the milestones at different ages that happen through thousands of observations. When the development is not following a regular/typical range of milestones, it is said atypical.
6. What are the stages of child development?
The stages of Child development:
a. Prenatal development, after the fecundation until birth
b. Infancy and toddler hood, from birth until the age of 24 months
c. Early childhood, from age 2 years to 6.
d. Middle childhood, from age 6 to 11

What is growth and development?
-Growth is the increase in physical size and development is a change of something simple to complex. This refers to knowledge and behavior and skills that are learned.
What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors?
-What affects development is environment, culture and family values, all of this thing influence what a child is likely to learn.
What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development?
-Developmental milestones: Milestones refers to typical range. They represent behaviors that are typical with an a range of behavior for typically development children.
-Sequence of development: Are predicable steps along developmental pathway, common among children. Children learns different skills.
How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development?
– While kids are growing, the brain grows at the same time, so that way it developed more and it helps to learn different skills.
What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
-Typical means inside the norm, in other words, it means it’s normal.
-Atypical means it’s outside the norm, it’s not normal.
What are the stages of child development?
1.Newborn
2.Infant,
3.Toddler
4.Preschool
5.School age.
1.what is growth and development
Growth is the change in a person, If someone is use to being mean or bias then changes to a nicer person as time passes by this shows growth. Development is a long lasting process in behaviors
2. what affects development including ecological and contextual factors?
Children’s living stability
3. what’s the difference between development milestone and the sequence of development?
Milestone is basically when a child develop certain skills and sequence is basically the years and observation witness of most children trying to develop
4. how does learning connect to the brain neural development?
Childrens womb that where connection begins. There being shown to that has huge developments
5.What is the difference between typical and atypical development
Typical development is basically the mild speech in toddlers. The type of condition certain toddlers has. Atypical development is a change is physical that can happen through anything which is natural.
6.What are the stages of a child development?
Stages of children development is parental development which happens upon pregnancy. Early childhood transmissions from two to six years.
What is growth and development?
Growth: the increasing in physical size, length/height and or weight.
Development: emotional changes that process in human beings between the ages of birth and into adolescence
What affects development, including ecological and contextual factors? it affects in growth, progress, positive change or the addition of physical, economic, environmental, social and emotional.
What’s the difference between developmental milestones and the sequence of development? developmental milestones focuses on major accomplishments.
How does learning connect to the brain/ neural development? a child is disclosed from the very beginning while still in the womb. which will help as the child gets older. for example with my first born I used to read to him while he was in my belly and sing to him. and now he is nine year old, in honor roll, student government, loves reading. he learned how to count up to 20 and his abc’s at a very young age, before most of his other cousins did.
What is the difference between typical and atypical development?typical is when a child follows the normal course and atypical is when a child doesn’t follow the normal course

5. What is the difference between typical and atypical development?
6. What are the stages of child development?
1. Growth is the physical increase on a child up until adulthood and development is the change in behavior, mentality or any other skills a child learns until adulthood.
2. almost everything affects a childs development. anything between language, memory, society, age groups and much more.
3. milestones are often counted as an accomplishment of a child and sequence development is based on how and the order of a childs development.
4. the child can begin learning from the womb the more the child is exposed to anything educational he or she will have a better time to make a connection between old and new. be able to understand new situations. (kinda like my son, I read to him from the womb, played classical music and he is now a 5th grader who is a lil math genius (he got a certificate for having a highest math result in nyc state test) and he loves reading, in student government, the weather report club and so much more accomplishments.)
5. Atypical is child who doesn’t fall under the norm and typical is a child who does.
6. the stages of child development are infant to toddler (first two years), following is two year olds up to six years of age and last is six year olds to eleven year olds.
