Task 2 : Which factor has a stronger influence on individuals' growth and development, genes or environment? by Rara Syahira https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo Group members Ainul Fadzly, Amira Najihah, Wan Farisha Adriana, Yoo Evelyn en-us 2021-06-26 10:37:18 UTC 2021-07-07 11:40:06 UTC hello@padlet.com amiranajihah041079 https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626310953 We believe that environment has a stronger influence on the individual's growth and development rather than genes. This is because, as children grow older, they tend to spend more time with their peers rather than their parents. The people around them will influence their character and mindset. Which is why it is needed for an individual to be given enough knowledge for them to differentiate between right and wrong and make a fair judgement.]]> 2021-06-26 10:55:20 UTC https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626310953 For example, on a family institution, parents who form warm relationships with their children and have minimal conflict with them, provide adequate monitoring and supervision will result in positive outcome of the children growth and development https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626327558 2021-06-26 11:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626327558 https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626335199 Another reason is while genes provide a framework for the cognitive scaffolding, the environment is responsible for activating the brain function. It provides the growth-promoting experiences that would develop a healthy development of the brain and thus, the rest of the body. Experiences, good or bad, would leave a ‘chemical signatures’ that shape the architecture of brain and determine a permanent or temporary changes. ]]> 2021-06-26 12:01:41 UTC https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626335199 During the initial growth of children, they learn by observing. In this stage, they don’t have the ability to differentiate between good or bad. They will learn by observing the people, things, and activities around them. Thus, by providing a good and positive environment, we are able to prevent children to take in the bad or challenging behaviors. https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626345422 2021-06-26 12:27:14 UTC https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1626345422 mlowsf https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1640241750 this is a good discussion. upload into SLC]]> 2021-07-07 11:39:09 UTC https://padlet.com/amiranajihah041079/nqevdapcdcio0cyo/wish/1640241750
