ECE 332 Week 4 DQ 2 Brain Development   Brain
Development. Brain-based education suggests that
physical exercise is important for brain
development. Research has shown that in addition
to physical exercise, other activities focus on
stimulating the social development and
intellectual development of young
children. Gerry, who is still incapable of
jumping with both feet, may not be invited to
join in a game of jump rope. This is an example
of how a childs individual characteristics
(motor skills in this case) can affect context
(social environment) and influence development
(LeFrancois, 2012).

ECE 332 Week 5 DQ 2 Life   Life. Life as we know
it will change for the next generation, and those
changes must be accounted for in child
development. Today, television and media, the
changing nuclear family, and new parenting styles
play a large part in the life of a child.
Research tells us that viewing violent television
programs or playing violence-themed games
contributes to increased aggressiveness in
children. We also know that the break-up of the
nuclear family and super-parenting can have
detrimental effects on a childs emotional and
social development.
