Abstract History And Trends: This module lays out the history of child development, from early philosophies, to changing beliefs about human nature, with a look at the nature-nurture question. It examines the move away from myths and toward scientific investigation, lays out two methods of study, and ends with six overarching principles derived from child development research.
Abstract Observation: Using the four areas of development: physical, cognitive, language and social-emotional, the viewer is guided through several sequences of naturalistic observation of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. From the ongoing assessment of children, educators link the planning for student learning to what they know about the child's accomplishments, interests, strengths and areas to achieve.
Abstract Theories Of Development I: This module is an overview of theory in action. Theories include: cognitive, psychosexual, psychosocial, behaviorist, social learning, and sociocultural. The video explains the concept of the \whole child\ and shows how theories tend to focus on only part. Examples are given of how one theory can contradict another. Theorists include: Piaget, Freud, Erickson, Gesell, Skinner, Vygotsky.
Abstract Theories Of Development II: Why do early child educators and parents need to understand the educational theories of philosophers from three hundred years ago? Viewers will learn that these theories will give them a foundation upon which to build their own philosophy of education. Learn the theories of John Locke, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Johann Pestalozzi, and Frederick Froebel.
