Physiological - how a living organism or bodily part functions. ​

Inanimate - showing no sign of life; lifeless. ​

Conformity - compliance with standards, rules, or laws. DEVELOPING THE WHOLE PERSON ​

“Perhaps we shall learn, as we pass through this age, that the other self is more powerful than the physical self we see when we look into a mirror.”​

Napoleon Hill 

Human Development

is the way people change and grow across their life spans. There are many types of development that people go through. As a person ages, there are bodily changes. As he or she learns problem-solving skills, his/her cognitive development grows.​

What does it mean to be a whole person? ​
You are a whole person with unique physical, social, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual needs and

experiences. You must understand that you are still growing, changing, and developing as a whole person. ​

Cognitive Development - It deals with how people’s thoughts develop.

Cognitive Development Theory of Jean Piaget ​

Jean Piaget (1896-1980)

outlined specific stages of mental growth in children and adolescents. ​

  1. Sensorimotor Stage (0 -2 years old)

“EXPLORATION AGE.” Curiosity Begins and they start realizing how things work and operate. ​

B. Preoperational Stage (2-7 years old) ​
The mental representation of objects is essential. Children at this age are too curious about things. It is the time in our life when we gain an understanding of the world around us. ​
Egocentrism - think only from one’s point of view. ​

2 Sub-Stages of the Pre-operational Stage: ​

1. Symbolic Function (2-4) - It refers to the use of mental representation. The child plays “make believe.” ​

2. Intuitive Thought (4-7) - Refers to the growth of curiosity and basic reasoning. 

  1. Concrete Operational Stage (7-11)

The child began to think logically. ​

Conservation - an understanding that quantities don’t change when the appearance is altered. ​

  1. Formal Operational Stage (11-Up)

We begin to think in a more complex manner. Our thoughts become more abstract and more detailed. We start considering different ideas and points of view.
