I have loved taking this class and learning about child development in more depth. It has been wonderful getting to learn from each of my classmates in the discussions and through each blog post that I have read. I am also so grateful for professor Cara Wicks-Otega and have appreciated all of her guidance and instruction. Being able to study child development has been such a blessing in my life and I am grateful that Walden has given me the opportunity to extend my education.
We develop our habits at an early age which in turn affect the way we learn. This is indeed why different children have different learning styles. Education must therefore include a blend of techniques to cater to the learning styles of every individual. One must remember that what works for one, may not work for another. Every child is unusual in its own approach towards life, and we must make sure that such an approach gets appreciated. Our role is to support and enable a child, so that he or she is able to open up to the varied experiences that life has to offer.
