Wilkinson states that these assessment aspects arose from an ‘interaction between our perceptions of the written materials, teachers’ judgements and theoretical considerations’ (Wilkinson, A., Barnsley, G. P., Hanna, P., & Swan, M., 1980). It is here that Wilkinson’s model of children’s development in writing is particularly helpful as it shows that the child has developed their quality of thought in a cognitive capacity; the child shows an awareness of the world and an ability to describe, interpret, generalise and speculate on it (Winch et al, 2010). Other ways that teachers may help children to expand on their development are through the use of VELS speaking and listening standards. Where students are given opportunities to use spoken language appropriately in a variety of classroom contexts, ask and answer simple questions for information and clarification and to produce brief spoken texts that deal with familiar ideas and information (VCAA, 2006). The ability of a child to draw on cognitive thought and view the world around them relates to the Piagetian Theory of child development.

Essay 1 ‘World view’ Beliefs and attitudes, particularly to education and learning that you bring to your learning now. Human beings as a group and as a singular identity see our world in a very different and unique ways. Points such as educational experiences, knowing, personal responsibility and family-heritage, traditions no matter how small in cultural structures, have influenced my beliefs and attitudes. A world view comes about as a result from growth through which learned knowledge and understanding is collected in one’s life-time. My experiences of being a mature age student “now” and gathering life skills from early childhood years, primary and secondary learning, raising a child and household skills, to part-time work force, and obtaining a diploma in Early Childhood have undoubtedly prepared and planted in me the seed, shared cultured world view.
(English, 2009). Subject positions emerged: (1) Classroom teacher: Too many responsibilities, time management, responsible for covering the curriculum, role of expert instructional decision maker, and role of learning facilitator; (2) ESL department: Completely responsible for all ELLs, responsible for constructing a fun community for ELLs, and supporting teachers with small group instruction and data; (3) English language learners: ELLs are responsible for their own success or failure, role of deficient and passive students who need special help, and the student’s role is determined by different labels either mainstream, ELL, or Special Education. (English, 2009, p. 6). What is your opinion of the literature review? Is it comprehensive?

Primary socialisation is during the early years of our life and is the most important developmental stage a human being can go through. Secondary agents of socialisation such as the school we attend, peer groups and the work place are more formal and less intimate; however it enables us to learn more in wider society. Socialisation runs continuously through a person’s life, as we are always learning new skills, values and norms. Our personal values may evolve and develop through the experiences we have, and the knowledge we gain during our life course. Our values are very deep rooted and a very important part of ourselves, they make us who we are.
I believe most of my literacy was all dependent on my Mom’s ability to help me make these connections, especially with reading. Once I could make the connection between what the word was and what the object was it was immediately placed in my mind. It was almost like learning by osmosis because we are placed in a society today where everything is based off of language. It is all around you just have to listen to it and pay attention.

The humanism conceptual framework is evident in the principles of the New Zealand Curriculum Framework (NZCF), whereby the teacher has the flexibility to develop classroom programme in accordance of the learning needs and styles of the students, and the acknowledgement that individual students will develop their essential skills to different degrees and at individual rates (MOE, 1993, pgs. 7, 17). Doyle (1990) sees this teaching approach as one which the teacher is knowledgeable about the ways that people learn and grow and involves working on developing a personal teaching style by examining individual attitudes and
