  1. What is The Ecological Systems Theory ? UrieBronfenbrenner Prepared By : NUR ATIKAH For week 2 study

  2. Ecological systems theory: This theory looks at a child’s development within the context of the system of relationships that form his or her environment. Bronfenbrenner’s theory defines complex “layers” of environment, each having an effect on a child’s development. This theory has recently been renamed “bioecological systems theory” to emphasize that a child’s own biology is a primary environment fueling her development. The interaction between factors in the child’s maturing biology, his immediate family/community environment, and the societal landscape fuels and steers his development. Changes or conflict in any one layer will ripple throughout other layers. To study a child’s development then, we must look not only at the child and her immediate environment, but also at the interaction of the larger environment as well. In other words, humans` developments are influenced by variety of factors starting from the direct interaction, such as family and friends, the relationship with neighbors, schools authority and in a larger environments such as laws and society.

  4. Other terms The Exosystem The exosystem is the setting in which there is a link between the context where in the person does not have any active role, and the context where in is actively participating. Suppose a child is more attached to his father than his mother. If the father goes abroad to work for several months, there may be a conflict between the mother and the child's social relationship, or on the other hand, this event may result to a tighter bond between the mother and the child. The Chronosystem The chronosystem includes the transitions and shifts in one's lifespan. This may also involve the socio-historical contexts that may influence a person. One classic example of this is how divorce, as a major life transition, may affect not only the couple's relationship but also their children's behavior. According to a majority of research, children are negatively affected on the first year after the divorce. The next years after it would reveal that the interaction within the family becomes more stable and agreeable.

  5. What do you think about these people? How they turn up to be like this? Why do they change their identity?

  6. Just think about it. People are influenced by the different types of environmental systems. . Therefore it is very important for us to understand it in order to understand human` s development and how + why people become what they are now.
