For this discussion topic, first read and contemplate the statements in What’s Your Theory .  Select the option (either A or B) for each statement that most closely reflects your own views on development.  Select 2-3 of the statements/selections to share in the discussion forum.  What is it about these 2-3 statements that you find key or significant to human development overall?

 

Of those you are sharing with the group, what developmental psychology ideas, concepts, or theories seem to be reflected in your selection?  Does the statement you selected reflect a specific developmental theory?  Does the statement reflect one of the frameworks (biological, psychological, etc.)?, or does it reflect one of the larger philosophical issues (nature v. nurture, etc.)? 

 

What additional thoughts or questions are stimulated by these ideas?
