Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
Developmental theories emphasize growth and how it is affected by learning, whereas behaviorist theories focus on the environment and how behavior is learned through environmental influences. Developmentalists tend to emphasize one area, such as the cognitive or the affective. Behaviorists do not focus on particular areas of behavior but consider how behavior in general is learned

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Answers will vary but should mention the importance of nurturance and stimulation and the need for developmentally appropriate practice.
