• Theories and Theoretical Frameworks. As an early
  childhood professional, it is expected you will
  understand and apply foundational knowledge and
  theories in the field. Foundational knowledge and
  theoretical understanding provides a framework
  for you to utilize when you are working with
  infants, toddlers, and school-aged children.
  Additionally, your understanding of the
  foundational knowledge and theories will inform
  and shape your professional practices. For this
  discussion you will start by completing the
  Theoretical Frameworks Venn Diagram using your
  assigned grouping below. If you are unsure of how
  to complete a Venn diagram, the video How to Make
  a Venn Diagramprovides a helpful lesson.

• Genetic and Biological Factors. Genetic,
  biological, and environmental factors are known
  to a have significant impact on the development
  of all children, including children with
  attention- deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),
  autism, dyslexia, and other neurodevelopmental
  disorders. For children with specific disorders,
  there are multiple genetic, biological, and
  environmental factors that work together to
  create a spectrum of neurobiological symptoms.
  For many of these disorders there is not a single
  cause but rather a number of potential
  contributing factors that can exacerbate and
  elucidate symptoms.

• How the Brain Learns. In Chapters 3 and 4 of your
  primary text, Farrar and Montgomery discuss
  executive functioning and memory development
  (2015), you learned about factors that influence
  brain development. For this assignment, you will
  build upon that knowledge by further
  investigating how the brain learns. Remember that
  working memory, attention, and executive
  functions are interconnected and are crucial to
  the learning process. This includes the ability
  for a child to pay attention, demonstrate
  inhibitory control, and goal-directed behavior.
  Children may possess varying degrees of each of
  these functions, but they work together to create
  cognitive control and flexibility.

• Brain Development. During early childhood, our
  brains are continuously modified by environmental
  influences. It is now widely accepted that a
  childs environment and early life experiences
  affect the development, health, and structure of
  their brain. Perhaps the most intriguing aspect
  of the brain is its ability to change
  structurally and functionally in response to
  external stimuli, which is known as
  neuroplasticity. Watch the video Neuroplasticity
  to learn more about this concept (Sentis, 2012).
  Additionally, it is now believed that positive
  and stimulating environments promote healthy
  brain development. However, many children are
  exposed to environments that have negative
  consequences on brain development.

• Role of Families and the Community CLOs 4. Due
  by Day 7. One responsibility of professionals
  when working with children is offering support
  for families by sharing information with them
  about developmentally appropriate strategies for
  their children and the availability of resources
  in their community. Recall that during Week Two
  you developed a flyer that taught the families
  that you work with about the role of working
  memory, attention, and executive function in
  learning and development. Now, imagine the
  principal of a local school district saw your
  flyer and has invited you to submit a proposal
  for an upcoming district-wide professional
  development conference.

  Conceptual Development

• Cognitive and Conceptual Development. Concepts
  are fundamental to human cognition because of
  their use in many forms of thinking, such as
  problem-solving, categorization, and inductive
  inferences (Farrar Montgomery, 2015, p. 186).
  To apply your understanding of cognitive and
  conceptual development, it is important to first
  understand the three different theories of
  concept development that are commonly used.
  Chapters 5 in your primary text discuss the
  following theories the classical view of
  conceptual development (the ideas that all
  concepts are defined by a set of necessary and
  sufficient features), prototype or probabilistic
  view (concepts are compared to a prototype based
  on family resemblance or similarity), and the
  theory-based concept view (explanatory
  principles, such as an objects origins, are a
  component of conceptual representation) (Farrar
  Montgomery, 2015).

• ECE 353 Week 3 Discussions 2 Theory Of Mind
• For more course tutorials visit
• www.uophelp.com
• Theory of Mind. Theory of Mind is a theory of
  psychological and developmental roots that is
  defined by the ability of a child to attribute
  mental states such as beliefs, feelings,
  knowledge, thoughts, intents to oneself and
  others and to understand that others have beliefs
  and feelings that are different than ones own.
  The diagram below represents the five
  foundational components of theory of mind that
  emerge between ages 2 and 5 that were shared in
  Chapter 6 of our course text,Cognitive
  development of children Research and application
  . Understanding this developmental sequence is
  critical in being able to support children as
  they grow and develop cognitively.

• Problem Solving and Reasoning. There are many
  ways in which cultural differences impact
  cognitive development. One of the areas in which
  we see the impact relating to cultural
  differences is with the development of reasoning
  and problem solving skills as is discussed in
  Chapter 8 of our textbook. Because our habits of
  mind are influenced by our cultural and
  historical circumstances, the decision- making
  strategies that we seek to promote in students
  reflect our own culture (Brenner Parks, 2001).
  We must be aware of this and ensure that we are
  taking the cultural backgrounds of the children
  we work with into consideration as we help them
  to develop the ability to reason and solve
  problems. In this discussion, you will examine
  the social and cultural impacts on cognitive
  development by taking a deeper look at the
  development of reasoning and problem solving
  skills. Before responding to this discussion,
  review the Week Four Instructor Guidance for
  additional information, resources, and support.

• Relationships Between Cognitive, Language, and
  Motor Development. Cognitive, language, and motor
  skills are often thought to be closely
  interrelated developmental areas, because as
  children develop in these domains, they appear to
  demonstrate correlated developmental pathways.
  For this discussion you will need to choose one
  age group from the chart below and review all
  three videos for the age group you choose. After
  watching Pollacks (n.d.) videos, address the
  points listed below. Before responding to this

• Cognitive Development and Learning. Formal
  schooling plays a large role helping children to
  develop cognitively. Along with their home and
  social environments, experiences in school
  continue to foster childrens development of
  cognitive skills and strategies. In school,
  children learn new ideas, concepts, skills and
  are provided with the opportunity to engage in
  activities where they can explore and experiment.
  For this discussion, you will begin by reviewing
  one of the videos below. Before responding to
  this discussion, review the Week Five Instructor

• Intellectual Development. Educators in the United
  States public school classroom often work with
  children of varying levels of ability. Children
  in your classroom may have Individualized
  Education Plans (IEP) that require specific
  accommodations and modifications. As part of the
  process of an IEP, a school psychologist
  evaluates the childs intellectual functioning
  using a variety of intellectual and achievement
  tests. Once the IEP meeting takes place, various
  providers (including possibly speech therapy and
  occupational therapy) will also be present at the
  meeting. For the purpose of this discussion, we
  focus specifically on the role of a school
  psychologist and intelligence testing using a
  case study from your textbook.

  Development Experience (2 PPT)

• Professional Development Experience. Being an
  effective early childhood professional requires
  more than a passion for teaching or ability to
  work well with children. In the first five years
  of life, the most critical skills are formed by
  creating synaptic connections that are key to
  cognitive, social, physical, and emotional
  development. Because of their developmental
  stage, the environment you provide as an early
  educator will set the foundation for each childs
  K- 12 learning experience and beyond. However, as
  an early childhood professional, you will not
  work in isolation. Other professionals contribute
  to service provided to this population, including
  speech and language pathologists, occupational
  therapists, school psychologists, and educational
  advocates. Therefore, it is essential that as an
  early childhood professional you are able to
  communicate effectively with other professionals.
