Hi All,
My CYPW handbook doesn't contain much info (just a general summary) on the following:
1. Barriers to communication and ways to reduce those barriers for: cultural differences, literacy level, ICT literacy, sight impairment, hearing impairment, speech impairment and jargon/misunderstanding.
2. Name at least three personal factors affect development and three external factors affect development?
3. Explain how the following theorists have influenced your practice: John Waton, Maslow, Jean Piaget, Albert Bandura, John Bowlby and B.F.Skinner.
Hereunder is my info so far on the above.
1. For the barriers for cultural differences I wrote: some parents/children may have english as an additional language, they may be confused by certain gestures. What can I put for the others as it is making me confused?
2. I know illness is one for personal. However, I can't think of any other apart from Learning difficulties e.g. dyslexia. With regard to the external factors, I know poverty is one. Is abuse also considered an external factor?
3. The only theorist who has influenced my practice is John Bowlby because of his attachment theory. I know about all the other theorists but can't think of how they have influenced my current practice.
Thanking you all in anticipation
