Question: Why is it important to understand human growth and development? Areas of Human Development • Answer: • 4 Areas of Human Development: 1. Physical 2. Cognitive 3. Motor 4. Social
Physical Development Growth and development of the body’s muscles, bones, energy systems, and the nervous system. Cognitive Development 4 Areas of Human Development
Motor or Skills Development Combination of physical and cognitive development. Humans develop ability to perform a wide range of tasks. Social Development 4 Areas of Human Development
Chronological Age Skeletal Age Age indicated by physical maturity of skeleton. Degree of bone ossification. Factors such as nutrition, disease, and injury can cause lag. Developmental Age Age and Physical Development
3 Key Body Types: More fatty tissue and thicker body parts. Matures early, stocky, heavily muscled, broader bodies. Later to reach maturity, thinner body, narrow hips, longer arms and legs. Human Morphology
Four Basic Stages: Infancy / Toddler (0–3 Years) Childhood (4-10 Years) Puberty / Adolescence (11-18 Years) Adulthood (18+) Stages of Physical Human Growth and Development
Most marked growth in humans. Double birth weight in 6 mos. and triple in _____. By end of second yr. brain is ____of adult wt. Body length will increase by about ___ Considerable muscular development. Gains in ability to perform basic tasks. Grasp, crawl, pull to stand, walk. Most master walking by age _____ Most master running by age _____ Infancy / Toddler
Relatively long compared to other animals. From 6-10 yrs. the body “stabilizes” Uniform relationship between bone / tissue growth and development occurs. Rapid stage of growth from 4-6 yrs. Childhood
Growth (physical and psychological) speeds up during this phase. “Growth spurt” where boys b/cm men and girls b/cm women – sexual maturity. _____________triggers growth in both sexes. Marked changes in physical appearance. - - Puberty / Adolescence
Most growth has taken place. Other physical changes: Weight gain, reduced oxygen capacity, rise in blood pressure, joint deterioration. Adulthood
Growth progresses fastest in the head, followed by the trunk and then the extremities. Body movements that originate closer to the centre of the body seem to develop earlier than those that originate further from the centre. Different Rates of Growth for Different Body Parts
Describe the 4 Phases of Movement (page 250). What are the 5 key factors affecting physical growth? (page 251) Explain Piaget’s four stages of cognitive development (page 253). What’s the difference between socialization and friendship? (page 254) Examine the checklist on page 255. This was developed to track the social development of pre-schoolers.
