Module 1: Activity 5 (Developmental Psychology)

In this activity I have learnt so much about caring for my learners and their developmental psychology. I have learnt that their physical, social relations, emotional development, personality development, moral development and their cognitive ability play a very significant part of shaping who they become. Knowing the factors that contribute to developmental psychology in our children help us to better identify with them and find solutions, help aid the issues, and address them.
I’ve also learnt that working along with the school, the community and the students, holistically, contributes to the child’s development, not only psychologically, but also mentally and builds self esteem.
The family is the most important key in the development of a child, along with other role models in the community, or the child’s life. They help to shape the child’s morals and values, assists them in decision making and overall development.
Together, with teachers and the community, parents are able to guide their children along the path to proper psychological development.
