  1. Principles of Individual Human Development

  2. Development during childhood • Significant developmental milestones are achieved in infancy and childhood • Brainstorm a list and categorise into • Infancy • Early childhood • Late childhood • Crawl, walk, talk, manipulate fingers, communicate, interact, write, roll,

  3. Cephalocaudal development • The direction of development from top (head) down to bottom (toes) • Gain control of head then arms, torso and finally legs • head larger relative to rest of body, lower parts of body must do more growing to reach adult size

  4. Principles of Development • Predictable and orderly • When milestones are reached and in what order they occur • Development is continual – conception to death • Variations in the rate and timing of development • Influenced by hormones, genetics, nutrition, physical activity and family interaction • Predictable patterns • Cephalocaudal • Proximodistal • Simple to complex – motor skills, thinking etc.

  5. Proximodistal development • Development from the centre (core) in an outward direction (to extremities) • brain/spinal cord (central nervous system) and organ systems in trunk develop before arms and legs, fingers, toes • motor control of trunk and head before arms and legs

  6. Case Study – “Spare the comparisons” pg167 • TYK & AYK questions pg164

  7. Conception to late childhood • Conception to late childhood follows these stages: • Conception & fertilisation • Prenatal development (conception to birth) • Germinal stage • Embryonic stage • Foetal stage • Infancy (0-2 years) • Early childhood (2-6 years) • Middle childhood • Late childhood (6-12 years)

  8. Types of Development • Physical development - The changes that relate to people’s size and shape and, therefore, body structure • Social development – The increasing complexity of behaviour patterns used in relationships with other people • Emotional development – Deals with feelings and moods and the ways in which people express, understand and exercise control over them • Intellectual development – Also referred to as cognitive development, the ways in which people are able to think and reason
