Document Summary
Katelyn tried to get colin to complete a task--two children playing: colin is much younger than katelyn, explanation: Katelyn learned not to spill her drinks so she expects colin to not spill his drinks: colin cannot do the same things as his sister because he is not developmentally ready. The baby is learning behavior from his sister; katelyn tries to teach: prediction: Baby might remember what he did so he might do the same thing next time. The baby will develop the skills as his sister when he grows up a little bit: theories are perspectives. Themes of theories: continuous or discontinuous, stage-like, must address change over time. The child can learn from one experience, understand cause and effect from that experience, and thus predict a future outcome from that experience calling the child a theorist. Three historical perspectives: behaviorism, pavlov: classical conditioning.
