HELP ME
DIANNE!!!!!

have you got the text book? it will give you a basic guidance BUT of course at level 4 they sort of assume that you know a lot of this and of course an nvq assumes you do and you need to prove it, So you need to do some reading. i suggest you focus on 3 or 4 theorists including vygotsky and bruner and a more contemporary one like bruce then work your way through the areas of theory each of which connects to a theorist.

schemas etc attach to each theorists which comes apparent when you do the reading.

emotional development is a stand along topic which you again will find when doing the research
maybe split the topic into sections. the last question is bruce all the way.

i think the trick is to remember than the knowledge evidences ARENT questions they are things you have to prove you now so you can phrase the writing in any way that suits you.

thanks tutu

it always helps when you see it from someone elses point of view

here goes

wish me luck

hi seb are you still struggling on this one

i found my BTEC NAtional Early years handbook which has a huge part on laissez faire model (learning just happens which is based on French philosopher Rousseau who thought that children learned like the opening of a flower bud, and were programmed to learn certain things at certain times.

Schema - key work of Piaget- schemas are early ideas or concepts based on linked patterns of behaviour and are part of the child's powerful drive to understand its experiences.

Half way through 402 now but let me know if i can help as occassionally dipping into 403 as finding 402 so boring done lots of cross referencing throughout glad when i can finally get my teeth into something so to speak , i much prefer writting a proper essay

hi twiggy

i am still putting off opening my folder because i know this is my next knowledge question:thumbsdow

I know what i need to be talking about i just can't bring myself to start it. thanks so much for your help i'm determined i'm going to have finished this question by the end of the weekend. :dizzy:

i'll let you know how i get on and i agree 402 is very boring.
