Concept Map #2: THEORIES

Concept Map #3: H/P/B

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:09:11 UTC

This week, I flashed back to reading this article in my AP BIO class many years ago. I had never read a TED TALKS blog, but I enjoyed their research in this format, too! It is a very complex and hard topic, as there are sides to both why we should and should not gene-edit humans. It was super insightful and a good way to look at it.

THE PERIODS

Concept Map #5: PHYSICAL GROWTH IN INFANCY

Concept Map #6: MENTAL DEVELOPMENT IN INFANCY

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:14:08 UTC

For this week, I wanted to take a closer look and get more understanding about separation anxiety, and why we classify it as a “mental disorder. That term [disorder]has always seemed pretty aggressive or intense. I read a handful of articles about it and want to continue my research about it and why it is such a prominent trait in my infants today.

Concept Map #7: SOCIOEMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT IN INFANCY

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:15:34 UTC

This was an amazing documentary I watched in my anatomy and physio class this week about brain development, which was great as it also tied into what we were learning in this class! All the cute kids were a plus as well!

Concept Map #8: EARLY CHILDHOOD

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:17:01 UTC

This week, I wanted to watch and learn more about the eight stages of development, as I was mixing all the stages up with the correct age range in my head. This video broke down everything piece by piece and helped me strengthen connections and understand how this theory came about. I enjoyed the animations as well :)

CONCEPT MAP #9: MIDDLE CHILDHOOD

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:18:06 UTC

Growing up, my Mom did go through periods where she would opt me out of standardized testing at school. She always preached that she knew I could do it, but mentally, it was nice not to give me the stress that comes with continuous testing days. This video from TED gave a nice history of testing and why so many appreciate/ loathe it.

Concept Map #10: ADOLESCENCE

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:20:18 UTC

This video goes through the teenager's developing brain and why they are more inclined to take risks. She is a great speaker and storyteller, which helped me stay focused and get a better understanding of the teenage brain. Great informative video! I have loved watching TED Talks for the topics in this class!

Concept Map #11: EARLY ADULTHOOD

Wisdom Interview EOY Paper

How has your knowledge about Human Development Lifespan developed through the concept maps?

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:28:45 UTC

I believe that condensing all your thoughts throughout the week helps you grasp all the information that you learn. I learned that writing down key concepts that stick out to me throughout the week helped me narrow down what I wanted to focus on when I got to the end of the week. Things that I narrowed down could be concepts I was shaky on, or things that interested me and I wanted to learn more about.

My top 3 concept maps of the semester :)

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:46:46 UTC

My favorite concept maps this semester were...

CM #5 - I loved expanding my knowledge on the phases of growth, as I felt like many people group growth as toddlers, newborns, etc. And the way the chart was done helped me have a better visual understanding.

CM #7 - I loved this video when I first watched it, and it was cool to revisit and refresh my memory, as it tied into what we were learning in our class.

CM #10 - I think this video really encapsulated a young adult's life and how much they are going through mentally, just in terms of development and in their life.

What have you learned about Human Development Lifespan by compiling this portfolio? Looking at individual concept maps and looking at them as a whole masterpiece?

ellamartinez3 — 2025-05-12 23:57:05 UTC

I have learned there are so many different layers to a developing child. I think I have never put much thought or details into how much a child goes through in the middle stages of development. By making this portfolio and seeing everything grouped together, it connected all the concepts and showed how complex and details they are. Individually, it was easy to understand the concept presented, and then as a whole and following them week by week it was cool to see them from the earliest stage to when they reach later life.
