motor and cognitive development. Researchers have long realized that specific motor development milestones, like walking or crawling, can help doctors and parents track early development in their children. Recently, they have learned that those milestones may be a useful tool for predicting later age development. Research shows that how quickly some children achieve major motor development milestones were predictors of later age performance in memory. If using early development as a predicting…
Developmental milestones are things that most children can do at a certain age, these milestones are reached in how children play, learn, speak, behave and their movement. ‘More than 90% of babies at this age are walking well enough that they are able to squat down, pick something up off the floor and jump back up again’ (Dana Sullivan, 2015) Children start from learning how to sit up alone which gives them a new perception of the world, crawling gives the child more freedom and independence,…

When milestones are not defined properly, projects may still continue, although the true status may be unknown. In order to determine if poorly defined milestones are problematic for a particular project, Kerzner (2013) suggests reviewing the project using a schedule variance calculation method, such as percent complete, a part of the earned value method (EVM). Percent complete is particularly useful when milestones are not able to be identified, as it gives…

For me the most anticipated age was sixteen because turning sixteen meant that I could drive. No more waiting outside in the cold after cheer practice for my mom to pick me up. No more standing in the rain at the bus stop at the crack of dawn to get to school. No longer did I have to schedule my activities around my parent’s plans, once…
