The first child I observed doing physical things was a girl named Aditi who was born on November 23, 2012. When Aditi was done with her snack, she got up and threw her trash away, and then went over to a table by herself and started doing a small muscle activity by putting a puzzle together. Once she got tired of that she walked over to the other toys and picked up an airplane and started flying it around the room, which she used large muscles for. The second child I observed was a boy named Zeno, his birthday is on April 4, 2013. When Zeno was done...

...Observation The student is considered a novice as an observer of children. The student observes children to gain practice and understanding in child development. Students have an obligation to protect children and respect school personnel. Observers are usually visitors in the classroom. The observer must keep in mind that they are a disruption to the regular processes in the classroom and they should respect the classroom teacher’s direction. The protection of the child’s rights in any type of child study is important. Regardless of the procedure used to collect information, the child’s protection is paramount. The child must not come to any harm (physical or mental) through participation in the observation process. Confidentiality must be utilized at all times. Talking about children and families with others outside of class or with the classroom teacher is prohibited. Please use fictitious names in written reports. Any concerns about a child’s safety should be addressed immediately with the classroom teacher or other responsible party. Observation tells us about children’s behavior – what they are doing. If we want to understand children’s development in school settings then we should observe them in those settings. Observation that takes place in a natural environment is referred to as naturalistic observation. Qualities of a Good Observer: · Recognize personal bias and preconceived assumptions about children. · Stay focus for a long period...

...Developmental Checklist Observation Summary EDU 119-OW My observation data was collected on a 2 day observation of a young boy, by the name of Jade. This child is located in a class of 16 children, at a preschool in Rocky Point, NC. His birthday is 11/21/09, and at this present time of observation he is 4 years old. After several days of observation and according to the 4-5 year old developmental checklist, John is well above his age level in development. On day 1 of observation after arriving from breakfast, John washed his hands. After washing his hands he sat down on the carpet to wait for his teachers to join the carpet. The teacher read The Three Little Pigs. After the story, the teacher showed the children a short clip on you tube of the story, then asked the students to draw a picture of the story they had heard. John drew a picture of three pigs and 3 houses and wrote his name at the bottom. He then proceeded to retell me the story about the pigs and the wolf leaving out minor details. In retelling the story John covered some of the Language Milestones and some hand and finger skills while drawing the picture. According to the Language Milestones John was able to recall all parts of the story, not just some. He was able to speak sentences of more than 5 words, and he was able to tell a long story. By writing his name John showed hand and finger skills. He was able to print all the letters in his name. John is a very easy going child that got along well with...

...” and “Are there components of differentiated instruction that have a greater impact on student achievement than others?” The study followed a mixed method design and consisted of two parts. First, a quantitative analysis of test scores from the Michigan Education Assessment Program (MEAP) and teacher and student survey results were analyzed as a means to outline broad relationships from the data. Results from the quantitative findings directed the researcher on how to frame the qualitative design. Second, a qualitative analysis of classroom observations and interviews with teachers was conducted. The qualitative portion of this study followed a social interactionism orientation adopted by social interactionism theorist (Blumer, 1969). This approach allowed the researcher to analyze relationships between the differentiation variables. The quantitative data methods of surveys and test scores, qualitative techniques of classroom observations, and teacher interviews were triangulated. Triangulation of data was used to support research findings through independent measures to point to the same conclusions (Webb et al., 1965). The conceptual framework (Hall, 2004) served as the foundation in the identification of the differentiation variables to be studied. The research findings supported the work of learning styles theorists (Dunn, Griggs, Olsen, Beasley, and Gormann, 1995). Findings also suggested that the differentiation strategies of choice and interest play a vital role in achievement...

Such as does the poet's life suggest any special point of view, such as the complexity and the love of a mother as in Sharon Olds “The Month of June: 13 ½”. When reading through Sharon Olds “The Month of June: 13 ½”, the first thing that I noticed was that Olds uses an intensely personal voice to explore themes of family relationships. Throughout much of her poem, she examines her role as a mother, painting potent memories of her child in a sentimental and honest language (Notes 1)....

...NAME: Simba Elijah Kiage ADM NO: 643419 ASSIGNMENT: A Report on Active Theory of Television Viewing Course: Jnr2223 INSTRUCTOR:Kioko Ireri, Ph.D. SUMMARY PURPOSE Delivered for the fulfillment of a Bachelors Degree in Mass media SCOPE: The Report covers the Active Viewing Theory, its contribution to understanding media effects on audiences documented challenges from research scholars. Presented To: Kioko Ireri, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Journalism & Mass Communication Patron, Journalism Club, Journalism Department United States International University-Africa. Introduction This theory finds its roots in Bandura’s 1977’s social learning theory which states that some prim aspects of television programming normally get and retain the attention of the viewers. It is therefore from here that Bandura suggested that once a child is exposed to the television programs, perceptive watching followed by an almost automatic attention and interpretation. This is a theory then that rests under media effects category. The many researchers who have put its hypothesis to research over the years have all tried to ascertain whether it is true indeed that viewers get directly involved with the media messages they consume from the media (Television) This theory however hasn’t really been accepted across by all media researchers as some have come out to question the perceived active television watching by the audiences saying that in reality television viewing as...

During prenatal development the fetus is dependent on the mother to provide the child with a healthy environment to help promote the proper physical development of the unborn child. Healthy development of a child begins at conception. As the fetus grows and develops senses, organs, and brain function, the mother’s lifestyle controls the quality of development in all of the important areas. (Groark, McCarthy, & Afton, 2014) Physical and motor development The infant’s head is heavier than the rest of their body and they are unable to have any control over its movement; of course the does not mean the head does not move but that the movement is only a reflex. The infant at this stage in development has natural reflexes: Moro or startle reflex, which is the sudden extension of arms and legs, head, jerks back and newborn may often gasp in air and cry out. This reflex is often seen when child is surprised by a loud sound or sudden movement. (Groark, McCarthy, & Afton, 2014) Rooting reflex is the...

...attachment security research was conducted using a variety of both screening questionnaires, and several parental self-report questionnaires assessing their parenting styles, parental efficacy, experiences of daily hassles, social support and psychological problems. Through the use of these questionnaires, observations by pediatric psychologists, and a follow-up at approximately four years of age, it was demonstrated that the children with ASD were rated less securely attached than both other clinical and non-clinical groups. Also, the parents of children with ASD reported a less authoritative parenting style and felt they received less social support than the parents of non-clinical children. This paper will delve deeper into their research and consider the results as it applies to the discipline. AUTISM, ATTACHMENT AND PARENTING 3 Article Critique on Autism, Attachment and Parenting The purpose of Rutgers et al.’s research on autism, attachment, and parenting was to study young children who, having been pre-screened early, would later in their development be officially diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, or ASD.

It is also found that children injured in early childhood are more vulnerable to developmental deficits, According to Taylor et. al (2008), a younger age at the time of injury is a predictor of worse outcomes. Although many researchers in this field have shared the previous findings, there have also been gaps in research on the topic of childhood TBI and development. Certain discrepancies include effects of family characteristics on development following TBI, and effects of TBI on language performance. Previous research has included child and family demographic information when...
