- Define and give an example for each of the eight concepts below:
Heredity / Environment / Normative and Non-Normative Event / Risk Factor / Critical Period / Sensitive Period / Plasticity
- Use the information from the video and text to integrate the case vignette of Genie (from the video) to discuss how the eight concepts above impacted her life and develpment.
- Urie Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological theory emphasizes the interrelationships between the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem and chronosystem on the developing child. Describe a child scenario and use Bronfenbrenner’s theory to describe all of the systems in which s/he is embedded and how the child might be impacted. Be sure to intergrate Bronfenbrenner’s definiton of each of his five systems in your child scenerio.
Some examples you may use:
a). A child born to a single teenage mother
b). A child whose father is serving in the military
c). A child with a disability
