Presentation and introduction

This image means the developmental process
 of the children, needed to get the objectives.

This blog has been created to do a learning portfolio about some concepts of the Thematic blocks III and IV of the subject called Developmental Psychology, from the Double Degree of Nursery and Primary Education, of the University of Vic. 

It pretends to show some contents of this subject, demonstrating that they have been understood, including more information found by different resources (Internet, books...), and reflecting about the items that had been chosen to expose (the drawing importance and the memory). In addition it pretends to propose dynamics in order to learn in a different and useful way, as well as to develop important skills that are developed at childhood, which are the issues sopken in this blog.

It is divided in these two blocks mentioned before:

• Thematic block III: Psychomotor development

        (It is focused on the drawing skills). It contains four points:

        - Introduction to the drawing aspect (definition, importance and stages of drawing)

        - Drawing reflections

        - Drawing strategies (to do with children)

        - References

     

• Thematic block IV: Cognitive development

        (It is based on the memory). It contains four points:

        - Introduction to the memory's concept (definition and different types of memory)

        - Memory reflections

        - Memory strategies (to use with children)

        - References

The fact of doing this learning portfolio is very useful, because it recquires to ordenate the notes taken in class, to complete them correctly, to read them paying attention, and to choose one of the items worked in class. Doing these things, you are reviewing the contents of the subject, so you are understanding them more carefully. Furthermore, it also recquires to look for more information and reflect about the chosen items, so it expands the knowldege and it makes you to go deeper in a content of the subject, as well as it is useful to learn to look for resources, information, in other words: it makes you more able to do research and investigating works, and it makes possible to reach more experience of it.
