| EDOL 631 Developmental Matrix: Guidelines and RubricThe Developmental Matrix is essentially a table that illustrates the interaction of specific developmental abilities across six domains, from birth through adolescence. A template for the assignment is provided below. For each age range you will need to provide significant developmental milestones that occur in each domain.Cognitive· Reasoning skills, thinking skills, perception, brain development, ability to acquire knowledge or gain meaning from experiences…Piaget’s theory must be represented herePhysical/Motor· Can include fine motor, gross motor, physical development, body changes…Communication· Can include articulation, expressive language, receptive language, vocabulary development, social communication, written communication…Self-help· What skills a child can do for him/herself. Also known as adaptive skills, daily living skills, functional skills, or independent living skills. It may be as simple as holding a bottle while feeding, or as complicated as applying for a job or driving a car….Personal/Emotional· Development of personality, identity, emotional skills/control…Erikson’s theory must be represented hereMoral/Social· Development of sense of right/wrong, ethics, social skills and social interactions with peers/family….Kohlberg’s theory must be represented hereYou will find a partial sample matrix entry under Week 3 at the Lessons Tab; however, understand that this is just to show you a basic entry. There may be some “cells” in the table that contain numerous items and some with fewer. Each category must contain a minimum of 3-5 distinct and sufficiently detailed entries. However, this is only a minimum.*** You must include information from the text (and/or other sources) regarding the following theorists: Erikson (personal domain), Kohlberg (moral domain), and Piaget (cognitive domain)Remember, this is a research process, so poll a number of sources to cover each domain/age. Instead of using the regular APA citation process for this assignment, simply place a number in parentheses in each cell after the information is listed and then provide a references page (in APA format) will the full citation (including the number that has been used in-text at the end of the full citation) A complete matrix will need to include 10 sources at a minimum. Please use MS Word to construct your matrix. Do not use excel or another format to complete this project. The table below shows the format for the matrix. Format the matrix in landscape orientation.You will need to start working on this immediately. Late matrix assignments, if accepted, will be deducted a minimum of 10 points per day. If you have problems or questions feel free to email me. This will be a challenging assignment, but it will provide you with a wealth of information that you can use as a reference in your work as a teacher (or parent) or even some of your other classes.The table below shows the format for the matrix:AgeCognitivePhysical/MotorCommunicationSelf-helpPersonal/EmotionalMoral/SocialBirth-12 months 13 months – 3 years 3 years, 1 month – 6 years 6 years, 1 month – 10 years 10 years, 1 month – 14 years 14 years, 1 month – 18 years | |
