Sa pagsisimula ng aming klase sa Edtech2 hindi na kami nahirapan sa aming
professor dahil kilala na namin siya bilang isang magaling na guro. Si G. Layson ay isang dalubhasa sa pagtuturo sa amin, noong simula kami ay masaya dahil siya ang magtuturo. Unang pagkikita namin pinaliwanag niya ang aming dapat gawin ngayong semestre, pinaliwanag niya isa-isa ang aming “silabus”. Unang basa ko pa lamang sa aming gagawin ay nakaramdam na ako ng hirap dahil una, talagang pang indibidwal ang mga gawain na kanyang ibinigay. Maiisip mong maari kang bumagsak pag hindi mo nagawa. Muling pagkikita namin sa aming guro ay noong Dec. 18 mayroon siyang pinagawang gawain na tungkol sa aming pananaw sa kinukuha namin na kurso , na ang gagamitin ay ang aming mga kamay , ang ginawa ng aming grupo ay isang puno na naglalaman dun ang bunga ,ugat, dahon, yong pinakapuno nito. Sa lahat ng grupo halos iisa lang ang aming naisip, dahil nga maiituring mo talagang isang puno ang mga guro. At sa muling pagkikita ay noong Jan.18,2010, ang ginawa namin sa kanya ay nagpaliwanag lamang siya sa mga dapat naming gawin sa gawain na kanyang pinapagawa, at dahil nga sa matagal siyang wala nagbigay siya ng regalo sa aming seksyon. What is Psychosocial Development? The first stage of Erikson’s theory of psychosocial development occurs between birth Erik Erikson’s theory of and one year of age and is the most fundamental stage in life.2 psychosocial development is one of Because an infant is utterly dependent, the development of trust is based on the the best-known theories of dependability and quality of the child’s caregivers. personality in psychology. Much like If a child successfully develops trust, he or she will feel safe and secure in the world. Sigmund Freud, Erikson believed Caregivers who are inconsistent, emotionally unavailable, or rejecting contribute to that personality develops in a series feelings of mistrust in the children they care for. Failure to develop trust will result in of stages. Unlike Freud’s theory of fear and a belief that the world is inconsistent and unpredictable. psychosexual stages, Erikson’s Psychosocial Stage 2 - Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt theory describes the impact of social The second stage of Erikson's theory of psychosocial development takes place during experience across the whole lifespan. early childhood and is focused on children developing a greater sense of personal One of the main elements of control.2 Erikson’s psychosocial stage theory Like Freud, Erikson believed that toilet training was a vital part of this process. is the develoment of ego identity.1 However, Erikson's reasoning was quite different then that of Freud's. Erikson believe Ego identity is the conscious sense that learning to control one’s body functions leads to a feeling of control and a sense of self that we develop through of independence. social interaction. According to Other important events include gaining more control over food choices, toy Erikson, our ego identity is preferences, and clothing selection. constantly changing due to new Children who successfully complete this stage feel secure and confident, while those experience and information we who do not are left with a sense of inadequacy and self-doubt. acquire in our daily interactions with Vygotsky and Social Cognition others. In addition to ego identity, Definition Erikson also believed that a sense of The social cognition learning model asserts that culture is the prime determinant of competence also motivates behaviors individual development. Humans are the only species to have created culture, and and actions. Each stage in Erikson’s every human child develops in the context of a culture.

Internalization refers to the process of learning--and thereby internalizing--a rich body of knowledge and tools of thought that first exist outside the child. This happens primarily through language. 7. A difference exists between what child can do on her own and what the child can do with help. Vygotskians call this difference the zone of proximal development. 8. Since much of what a child learns comes form the culture around her and much of the child's problem solving is mediated through an adult's help, it is wrong to focus on a child in isolation. Such focus does not reveal the processes by which children acquire new skills. 9. Interactions with surrounding culture and social agents, such as parents and more competent peers, contribute significantly to a child's intellectual development. -Since children learn much through interaction, curricula should be designed to rning tasks.
