Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
Developmental research tells us:
Growth occurs in a sequence.
Children in any age group will behave similarly in certain ways.
Children grow through certain stages.
Growth occurs in four interrelated areas (intellectual, social, emotional, physical).
Intellectual growth:
Children learn through their senses.
Children learn by doing; adults learn in abstract ways, whereas children need concrete
learning.
Cognitive growth occurs in four areas: perception (visual, auditory, etc.), language, memory, and reasoning
Social growth:
The world exists only from the childs viewpoint.
Seeing is believing.
Group play is developing.
Emotional growth:
Self-image is developing.
Physical growth:
Muscles cannot stay still for long.
Large muscles are better developed than small ones.
Hand preference is being established.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER:
Maslows theory is typically Western in that the individual is of primary importance, and the highest level of development is of the individual rather than of the family/tribe/community, which is more typical of collectivist and Eastern views.
