Developmental characteristics Needs Interests
Development is relatively orderly. It follows directional patterns such as: 1. cephalocaudal (from head to toe) 2. proximodistal ( from the center of the body then outwards)
proximodistal ( from the center of the body then outwards)
cephalocaudal (from head to toe)
Development takes place gradually. While some changes occur in a flash of insight, more often it takes weeks, months, or years for the person to undergo the changes that result in the display of developmental characteristics.
All domains of development and learning – physical, social and emotional, and cognitive - are important and they are closely interrelated (NAEYC, 2009).
Development proceeds toward greater complexity, self-regulation, symbolic, or representational capabilities (NAEYC, 2009).
Learning Episode 2 : Learner Diversity: Developmental Characteristics, Needs, and Interests Step 1 Observe 3 groups of learners from different levels (preschool, elementary, and high school) 2 Describe each of the learners based on your observations. 3 Validate your observation by interviewing the learners. 4 Compare them in terms of their interests and needs.
An Observation guide for the Learners’ Characteristics Physical Observe their gross motor skills how they carry themselves, how they move, walk, run, go up the stairs etc. Are gross movements clumsy or deliberate/smooth? How about their fine motor skills? Writing, drawing, etc. Social Describe how they interact with teachers and other adults. Note how they also interact with peers. What do they talk about? What are their concerns?
Emotional Describe the emotional disposition or temperament of the learners. (happy, sad, easily cries, mood shifts) How do they express their wants/needs? Can they wait? How do they handle frustrations? Describe their level of confidence as shown in their behavior. Are they self-conscious? Cognitive Describe their ability to use words to communicate their ideas. Note their language proficiency. Describe how they figure out things. Do they comprehend easily? Look for evidence of their thinking skills. Where there opportunities for problem solving? Describe how they showed problem solving abilities.

My Reflection While you were observing the learners, did you recall your own experiences when you were their age? What similarities or differences do you have with the learners you observed? Think of a teacher you cannot forget for positive or negative reasons, How dis s/he help or not help you with your needs (physical, emotional, social, and cognitive)? How did it affect you?
