ideas we have of children?s play and learning. In this assignment, I will first be examining my initial ideas of play and will then analyse these. I will review my ideas since starting this unit. I will then look at how my response has changed to what I feel are the advantages and disadvantages of educators having a breadth and depth of knowledge about developmental theories and expand on my reasons…

An awareness of learning styles aids personal development by allowing the learner to change their habits whilst learning. For example, if someone had the kinaesthetic learning style then they would be able to change their learning style to involve more hands-on activities, try different solutions to a problem to find out which one is best and they usually would prefer to work in groups.

Being able to identify their learning development impacts the appropriate and effective interventions and strategies for working with each student. I think that my proficiency level for this…

acknowledgments of the developmental learning skills through one’s behavior begins in childhood. The hominid brain requires a transaction of developmental historical and neurological, and through many functions, human acquires a thought process. Throughout the different processes of the hominid brain, researchers can obtain theories of remarkable behavior if rotational systems of evolution. Although, researchers hypothesize important information that suggests learning skills are acquired through…
