There is a danger that educators are pressured to concentrate on the cognitive (or intellectual) dimensions of development to the detriment of other areas. You are asked to make a case for the consideration of other areas. You are asked to make a case for the consideration of other aspects of development in Education. In your assignment you should consider EITHER physical or social development by identifying key elements of physical or social development in one development stage ADOLESCENT and evaluating their significance for Education. (LECTURE NOTES) Development is a process, by which people grow and change, it starts at birth and goes on throughout life. Development has four aspects: physical, language, cognitive and social-emotional, which are interlinked. For this assignment, I intend to focus on the social development of adolescents. Social development is about how we interact with each other. The way in which we share and listen is a result of our social development. As we get older we build on our experiences thus developing further, however poor experiences in younger years normally tends to have an impact at a later stage.
