Target: Understanding Human Development

How does life develop before birth?
What are some newborn abilities, and how do researchers explore infants’ mental abilities?
During infancy and childhood, how do the brain and motor skills develop?
From the perspective of Piaget and today’s researchers, how does a child’s mind develop?
How do parent-infant attachment bonds form?
What physical changes mark adolescence?
How did Piaget, Kohlberg, and later researchers describe adolescent cognitive and moral development?
What are the social tasks and challenges of adolescence?
What is emerging adulthood?
What physical changes occur during middle and late adulthood?
How do memory and intelligence change with age?
What themes and influences mark our social journey from early adulthood to death?

Kick off question: What do you think will be the most difficult part of being an adult and why?

Circle Question: What was your best year as a person?  What made is so good?

Temperament Survey: Take the survey yourself and then give the other copy to your parent(s) and have the fill it out but ask them to fill it out for what your personality was like when you were two years old.  Then have a conversation about what has changed about your personality and what has remained the same.

Activity: Landmarks

Activity: True or False

Homework: You should be reading the unit on Developmental Psychology in the Study Guide.  I would recommend reading the unit in the text book too if you want to supplement your knowledge.

1)Circle: Who is the most intelligent person you know?  What makes them so intelligent?

2)Circle: If you could choose an area of your life to be more intelligent about what would it be.  Examples: 

Learning Target: Understanding what intelligence is; How it is assessed; How much do our genes and environment matter; What do test score, differences among individuals and groups really mean? How should we use testing of intelligence in schools, college and the workplace?

Working definition of Intelligence: The ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use knowledge to adapt to new situations.


Activity: What is intelligence? The question on each of these; Is this intelligence?
