These notwithstanding, there are many disadvantages bewildering the use of Computer- Assisted- Instruction. 1. It is expensive. It involves the use of computers and programmed instruction.

Individual development has been studied in our field for a number of generations, yet not one generation is as predictable as the last. Contemporary developmental theories have added, subtracted, and applied various approaches to understand child/adult development, but with the society increasingly growing and the millennials slowly taking over, there will be certain issues with development that will arise. In my research, I have found issues of development that closely relate to lack of delay…
