Continuity/Discontinuity refers to whether change during development occurs gradually or abruptly. The continuity view suggests that changes occur slowly over time due to cumulative experiences throughout life while discontinuity proposes that there are distinct stages with clear boundaries between each period where sudden shifts may occur; for example adolescence would be considered a period continuous transition marked by physical changes emotional maturity as well opposite sex attraction among other key milestones.
Early/Late Experience focuses on when certain events or activities take place within a person’s life cycle. For example if someone begins learning math at age 10 then it is considered “early experience†however if they begin same subject at 15 then this would fall under “late experience†. Early experiences tend have more profound long-term effects than those occurring later on because they give individuals foundation upon which build further understanding knowledge base through continued engagement related activities whereas later ones may simply supplement already existing skillsets rather than fully transform them.
In regards adolescent development classroom learning all three concepts – nature vs nurture continuity vs discontinuity early vs late experience – play crucial roles not just helping young adults better understand themselves but also providing teachers necessary tools ensure students receive best possible education given their unique needs circumstances both inside out of classrooms alike
