  4. Bronfenbrenner Ecological System Theory. Urie Bronfenbrenner (1917-2005) developed the Ecological System Theory. The Ecological System Theory views the development of a child through “a complex system of relationships affected by multiple levels of the surrounding environment”. (Berk, 2008) The Ecological System consist of five systems: MICROSYSTEM MACROSYSTEM EXOSYSTEM CHRONOSYSTEM MESOSYSTEM

  5. The Microsystem. The microsystem is the closest system to the child. It consists of direct contact, activities and interaction in the child’s immediate surroundings. Relationships in this system will impact in two directions – towards the child and away from the child.

  6. Microsystem Buddhist Lives in an apartment in Bondi No siblings Respire Care Centre (3 days a week) DANIEL 3 year old Male Tiger (Pet = Dog) Autism spectrum disorder Daniel’s Mother (Single parent) Daniel’s Grandparents (Mother’s parents)

  7. The Mesosystem. The mesosystem is the second level of Bronfenbrenner’s model. This level provides the connection between the structures of the child’s microsystem.

  8. Mesosystem Jason (Carer from Respire) Ella (Carer from Respire) The suburb of Bondi MICROSYSTEM Respire Care Centre (3 days a week) Lives in an apartment in Bondi

  9. The Exosystem. The exosystem consists of social environments that do not contain children but that can also affects children’s experiences in the microsystem and the mesosystem. This includes “parents’ workplace, services available in the community, etc.” (www.surestart.gov.uk/_doc/P0000286.rtf)

  10. Exosystem Buddhist Religion Mother works in a clothing shop in Bondi Junction Beach MESOSYSTEM Daniel’s neighbourhood (Units, beach, small shops, Doctor’s surgery.) MICROSYSTEM Daniel’s Grandparents (Mother’s parents) Daniel’s favourite ice cream shop near the beach.

  11. The Macrosystem. The macrosystem consist of: • Cultural values. • Laws • Customs • Resources • Interactions at inner levels of the environment. This system also includes “political, religious and educational values, health practices, standards for behaviour and appearance and roles according to age, sex and ethnicity.” (White, F., Hayes, B. & Livesey, D. (2005)pp. 1 - 29)

  12. Macrosystem Religious belief in reincarnation and karma Believes in Buddha Mix cultural backgrounds in Bondi Doctor Wang MESOSYSTEM Library Bondi Police MESOSYSTEM Bondi beach (Life savers) MICROSYSTEM DADHC The culture around the Bondi area is very relaxed and carefree. Cascade Care ( Rose) Nanny agencies available to help.

  13. The Chronosystem. In the Ecological System Theory there are heaps of changes. According to Bronfenbrenner, “the environment is not a static force that affects children in a uniform way, instead it is forever changing.” Changes in this system can be: • Important life events – birth of a sibling, the beginning of school, a move to a new neighbourhood, or parents’ divorce. • Modify existing relationship between the child and their environments. • Producing new conditions that affect development. • The timing of environmental change affects its impact.
