Cognitive development is the development of thought processes‚ including remembering‚ problem solving‚ and decision-making‚ from childhood through adolescence to adulthood. Historically‚ the cognitive development of children has been studied in a variety of ways. The oldest is through intelligence tests.

Albert Bandura’s social cognitive theory essentially looks at and views children’s behaviour to come to be as such through witnessing interactions between other individuals as well as through various forms of media (Rathus & Longmuir‚ 2015). How the above can be used to analyze/view John’s situation in terms of the challenges of the new-found academic and social demands from prior can be the following.

In the beginning of this course‚ I never really thought about the theories of counseling in-depth. There were a couple of theories that I was familiar with‚ however‚ I never spent a lot of time with any of them.

I was able to gain insight in each theory and what they specifically entail and what theory applies to what and how they can relate. I found it interesting that we were able to identify which theoretical

Question 2 – Human Resources Thomas Malthus: Theory of population Malthus stated that‚ the populations’‚ of the world would increase in geometric proportions while the food resources available for them would increase only in arithmetic proportions.

A point would come when human populations of the world reach the limit up to which food

I will apply Vygotsky’s theory of development to make changes to my current curriculum. Vygotsky believed that social and cultural environments affect the way people think and their cognitive development. He believes that children have a curiosity to experiment with their environment that contributes to their cognitive development‚ but he think the most important factor is social interaction. When kids are younger this interaction is between their families and the people close to them‚ but as they
