You must complete all parts or all three (3) questions in order for your assessment to be considered submitted. Your submission will not be assessed if parts are missing or if you only submit 1 or 2 questions.
Questions:
Question 1. As human beings, brain development has a very large influence on our ability to learn. We know that genetics and environment will both affect the way our brain develops. From the perspective of your study area (Early childhood, Primary, or Secondary education) discuss how the biological development of the brain may interact with a student’s environment. What factors might promote or slow down brain development? How can we structure a classroom environment (i.e., learning materials, social/cultural factors or physical environment) to support brain development? Provide specific examples.
Question 2. The theories of Piaget and Vygotsky differ according to the role of the learner and the teacher in the learning process. According to your study area (Early childhood, Primary, or Secondary education), compare the responsibilities of each (teacher and learner) in the classroom according to each theory. Provide specific classroom examples.
Question 3. The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) is an important concept of Vygotsky’s theory of development. From the perspective of your study area (Early childhood, Primary, or Secondary education) discuss this concept and how you might a) assess if your instruction is within your student’s ZPD and b) once you have this information, what specific teaching strategies might be useful to maximise your students learning.
Question 4. One of the criticisms of Piaget’s theory is his failure to consider the effect that culture has upon learning. Discuss ways that culture may influence both the content and rate of a child’s learning. Be specific and provide examples according to your study area (Early childhood, Primary, or Secondary education).
Question 5. Discuss the implications of reduced physical activity for children’s cognitive, social and emotional development. What has contributed to the decline in physical activity? What can schools do to help to reverse the trend?
