Robert Kegan was born on 1946; the Harvard psychologist first described his theory on social maturity in his 1982 book, The Evolving Self. This book contains the theory of how people become more socially mature as they get older. Kegan’s theory of adult cognitive development contains some of the same principles as Jean Piaget’s theory of cognitive development. When studying Kegan’s theory it is important to understand Piaget because as Mark Dombeck writes “the core ideas from Kegan's work are essentially Piaget's ideas which have been reworked, broadened and abstracted, and applied to the social realm” (Dombeck, 2007). As we move through developmental stages we become more subjective and less objective.

After taking the assessment, I discovered that my learning style is auditory. As I reflect back, I noticed that I do read aloud to myself and I also enjoy working in groups and often participate in class discussions.
August 2010 - A recent updating of Abraham Maslow's iconic pyramid of needs by a team of psychologists including two from Arizona State University (ASU), published together with four commentaries in Perspectives on Psychological Sciences, concludes that factors involved in successful parenting, such as caring, feeding, nurturing and educating, are indicative of a profound pyschological need that merits placement at the top of the hierarchy. Maslow's concept of ordering human motivations dates from the 1940s. The current revision, which the authors acknowledge is controversial, takes into account developments in areas such as neuroscience, developmental psychology and evolutionary psychology. Lead author Douglas Kenrick, a professor of psychology at ASU explained: "It was based on some great ideas, several of which are worth preserving. But it missed out on some very basic facts about human nature, facts which weren't
His step-wise theory of cognitive development was a major influence on the later, and much more widely known, developmental theory of Jean Piaget. His contributions to the young discipline's early journals and institutions were highly significant as well. The idea of organic selection came from the interpretation of the observable data in Baldwin's experimental study of infant reaching and its role in mental development Every practice of the infant's movement intended to advance the integration of behavior favourable to development in the experimental framework appeared to be selected from an excess of movement in the trial of
I particularly liked this act because it created new programs at the tech-prep level aimed at coordinating between secondary and postsecondary activities into a sequence of courses as well as the fact that there was an emphasis placed on transitioning students from school to work. Vocational education is intended to not only help prepare students to be valuable assets in a competitive work environment, but also provide skills for learning, and applying academic knowledge to the workplace. 5. The School-to-Work Opportunities Act (STWOA) of 1994 was designed to provide for the needs for our national skills shortage. States were responsible to report how they were to use the start-up monies to assist youth
