CHILDREN’S LITERATURECHL2601
ASSESSMENT 6 2024
• 1.1 According to Piaget, cognitive development is a progressive reorganisation of
mental processes resulting from biological maturation and environmental experience.
This view sparked the nature versus nurture debate about the development of cognition.
When I prompted ChatGPT about these two conflicting views on the literacy
development of young children, it generated the following response:
•
Question 1 [40]
In the fields of developmental psychology and education, the argument
of "nature vs. nurture" in relation to literacy development in young
children has been around for a long time and is a complicated one. It
revolves around the question of whether children's reading and writing
abilities are primarily shaped by their environment, experiences, and
social interactions (nurture) or by their innate biological factors
(nature). In fact, the interaction of nature and nurture is what leads to
literacy development. Let's investigate both: 1. Nature (Elements
innate): • Hereditary inclinations: A few kids might have a hereditary
inclination that makes them more responsive to mastering language
and education abilities. They might be less able to understand
grammar rules or process phonetic information because of certain
genetic traits, for example. • Factors related to the brain: the
development of the brain is a big part of learning to read and write.
There is a possibility that some children have neurological differences
that affect how well they read and process language. Reading readiness
can be impacted, for instance, by issues with phonological awareness,
or the capacity to recognize and manipulate spoken language sounds. •
Biological maturation: As children get older, their brains go through
changes that help them remember, pay attention, and process
information. These changes may affect how quickly and effectively they
learn to read and write. 2. Environmental factors that nurture: • Home
environment: Early literacy development can be aided by a stimulating
and varied home environment that includes reading aloud, engaging in
literacy-related activities, and exposure to books.
CHL2601/EVALUATION 6/2024 7 • literacy abilities Reading is more likely
, to pique a child's interest in the future if it is valued in the home. • •
Parental involvement: Children's language and literacy skills grow when
parents and other caregivers actively participate in language-based
activities, such as storytelling and discussions. Children's progress can
be significantly impacted by their regular interactions with adults who
read to them and encourage their reading efforts. • Quality of early
education: The development of literacy skills can be significantly
influenced by the quality of early education and preschool experiences.
Children's reading and writing skills are supported by high-quality
programs that emphasize language and literacy skills. • •
Socioeconomic status (SES): Studies have shown that children from
families with higher SES tend to do better in literacy tests. This could be
because there are more opportunities for enriching experiences, books,
and educational materials available. • Interaction and interdependence:
It is essential to recognize that a child's literacy development is
influenced by both nature and nurture, not the other way around. For
instance, a kid's hereditary cosmetics could influence their language
handling capacities, yet their openness to a language-rich climate can
additionally uphold and refine those capacities. All in all, the nature
versus support banter in regards to education improvement in small
kids won't be quickly refined into a basic either/or situation. A child's
reading and writing abilities are shaped by both nature and nurture.
Educators, parents, and other caregivers can support children's literacy
development more effectively and specifically if they are aware of this
interaction. Create an argument to show parents why it is so important
to provide a home environment that is rich in literacy based on this
response. Your contention should be plain enough for guardians,
parental figures and grannies to comprehend. (5) 1.2 Children learn
through imitation across cultures. Make a list of five occurrences that
young children actively observe and that provide them with
opportunities to observe how reading and writing are utilized in real
life. (5) 1.3 Provide an explanation of the literacy skills that children
acquire through these observations based on your response to
question 1.2. (5) 1.4 In the South African classroom, linguistic, cultural,
academic, and cognitive diversity are all present. It is not reasonable to
assume that every child has had the same reading experiences or been
exposed to books. Examine and discuss five facts that cause young
