And in class, we have talked that we should develop awareness of the expectations of professional interaction with youth and families.
P11 Professional Development and Behavior C I have built this because in SPH-F180 (Youth and Families) class, I wrote the portfolio paper. And it includes my ideal professional development plan.
P12 Personal Development and Self Care C I have built this, because I also wrote in my portfolio paper on SPH-F180 (Youth and Families) class.
P13 Professional Ethics C I have built this from Ethics of CYC certification website. And it told me that
“These principles and standards provide a framework to guide ethical thinking and decision making across the various settings and roles in which Child and Youth Care Professionals serve.”
P14 Awareness of Law and Regulations C I have built this competency from online information such as the awareness of regulatory, legal, and ethical Issues for children.
P15 Advocacy NC I will build advocacy from the websites about child and youth, such as Association for Child and Youth Care, Indiana After School Association, National Council on Family

Applied Human Development C = Competent
NC = Not Competent N C Notes (how or where you have/will built/d this)
AD1 The professional practitioner is well-versed in current research and theory in human development with an emphasis on a developmental-ecological perspective. NC I will build this through read journals or news about current research and theory in this field.
AD2 Life Span Development C I have built this from the knowledge of this class: SPH-F 150 (Intro to Life Span Development). It introduces life span development for human.
AD3 Child/Adolescent Development C I have built this from the knowledge of this class: SPH-F 150 (Intro to Life Span Development). It introduces every different stage in people’s life.
AD4 Developmental-Ecological Assessment C I have built this from SPH-F180 (Youth and Families), because in this class I studied the concept of the ecological model.
AD5 Developmental-Ecological Sensitive Relationship and Communication C I have built this SPH-F180 (Youth and Families). In this class, I knew that the ecological model include different types of people and groups, and I studied how to connect the relation between different
In this life stage an average child will start developing writing skills, throwing and skipping also permanent teeth will begin to grow. Also children will become stronger and taller and baby fat will be lost. Intellectual:
Lifespan development is essential, as it is the changes that happen to us throughout a person’s lifespan. Our development occurs at ages stages where we develop from infancy till death. This essay will contain my life story to display the domains in 5 age stages in my lifespan development. The domains I will be exploring is in this essay is physical, emotional, cognitive, social, cultural and moral domain. The influence of biological and environmental play a significant role in my development. Development is influenced by nature or nurture and its affect will occur throughout lifespan. The changes that occur during development have stage. Each theorists has stages of development where they display the changes. This essay will explore my
The field of study that examines patterns of growth, change, and stability in behavior that occur throughout the entire lifespan is called lifespan development. Lifespan development takes a scientific approach in its study of growth, change, and stability. This development emphases on human development. Developmentalists study the course of development in nonhuman species, the most popular examine growth and change in people. In contrast I will focus on the ways people and myself change and grow during our lives, with the consideration of stability in our live span. Together, these findings suggest that we will go through

This paper serves to apply the knowledge learned throughout the course, COUN 502, to the development and growth in my lifespan. I will aim to demonstrate a working knowledge of the theories, terminology, and concepts of human growth and development. I will show how these disciplines apply to my own life experiences and how I did throughout my key life events, through the use of empirical studies.
The Ecological Theory is not being probed in this research; it is limited to be an organizing tool. The interview guide that we use tried to include all the systems in the theory (macro, micro, meso, exo, and crhono5), and their probable relations through different issues, which will correspond to one or more systems. However, even the theory would not define the study, it contributes to the design.
There are many stereotypical perceptions of life stages and their possible effect on development. Each of the six life stages will be explained with the expected norms and how this affects the development.
Ecological theory describes four levels of the environment that interconnect and impact people. Moving from the most intimate individual system to a broader inclusion you can identify the many systems that play a role in individual’s lives and well-being. These interactions could be harmonious and create homeostasis or could be disharmonious and cause stress.

For this unit you will need to be able to describe the expected pattern of development of children and young people from birth to 19 years.
This has been a very fascinating journey from prenatal, birth to old age. The goal of this paper is to show how my knowledge and understanding of life span development has increased, as well as demonstrate how this knowledge and understanding will apply to and can be used within my area of specialization, Leadership Coaching.
Life span developmental psychology takes a scientific approach to human growth and change, focusing on change during the life span. There are three main aspects to life span development: cognitive, social, and physical development. This class is not simply a discussion of nature vs. nurture, it explores the interaction between genetic and environmental factors that orient us towards specific behaviors. Initially, my views on life span development were limited to more sociological factors, and did not take into consideration physical developments of the brain. In relation to my personal and professional identity this course has made me realize that development occurs on a spectrum and that not everyone develops at the same time, in the same ways, making me more understanding and compassionate towards those who developed differently than me. The three most important lessons I have learned from this class are that development occurs throughout the entire life span, infants begin learning at a very young age, and that senescence begins as early as young adulthood.
Feldman, R (2011). Development Across the Life Span (6th ed.). New Jersey: Pearson Education, Inc.
There are three known major areas of study in Lifespan Development which are the Physical, Cognitive, and personal and social development. These groups have to do with age and range of Lifespan Psychology. Lifespan literally connotes from cradle to grave, in other words from conception to death. Lifespan is divided into these following age periods; prenatal, infancy, toddlerhood, middle childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, middle adulthood, late adulthood and death.
By drawing this Eco-Map, it enables both myself and the family to see the vast majority of their networks and relationships are tenuous or non-existent. These relationships also include elements of stress, anger, poor communication and tension. There are in fact very few positive relationships surrounding the family. Another important aspect of the ecological systems approach is encouraging and facilitating the development of positive emotional and affiliation supports.
