1.1.1 Hierarchy of needs
Maslow's hierarchy of needs is an idea in psychology proposed by American
psychologist Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" in
the journal Psychological Review. Maslow subsequently extended the idea to include
his observations of humans' innate curiosity. It is relevant to teachers because By
understanding what motivates students at different levels, educators can create
lessons and activities that better meet the needs of their students. In turn, students
will be more engaged and motivated in their learning, leading to better academic
outcomes.
1.1.2 Attachment theory
British psychologist John Bowlby was the first attachment theorist. He described
attachment as a "lasting psychological connectedness between human
beings."Bowlby was interested in understanding the anxiety and distress that
children experience when separated from their primary caregivers. Attachment
theory is highly relevant to teachers as it provides a framework for understanding the
dynamics of student-teacher relationships and their impact on students’ learning and
behavior. Teachers can better comprehend the root causes of certain behaviors,
which may stem from attachment-related issues, and respond appropriately.
1.1.3 Psychosocial theory of development
Erik Erikson created the theory of psychosocial development, which is part of the field of
developmental psychology. The theory comprises eight stages that span the entire
human lifespan, from infancy to late adulthood. Erik Erikson's theory of psychosocial
development has been useful in helping teachers and educators to understand child
development for more than 50 years. It remains a solid theoretical perspective for
understanding child and adolescent development and adult learning.
