1. Assignment 2:
Create and analyze a
simulated
case study of a child with developmental challenges, aged 2–5
years old.Create a 5–7-page intervention plan based on
evidence-based strategies that have proven effective in similar
cases and make projections of possible long-term impacts that
current challenges may produce across the individual's lifespan.
Social Behavior
Consider the following questions:
· What is the relationship between parenting practices and the
socialization of a child in his or her early years?
· How does a child's temperament influence parent
effectiveness?
· What are some ways of using discipline to support a child's
development?
· What are some differences in discipline among cultural
groups? What questions remain to be answered about the
relationship between culture and disciplinary style?
· What advice would you give to parents who want to develop
pro-social behavior in their children?
· What advice would you give to parents and educators to
prevent or address children's antisocial behavior?

2. · How do language and reading development correlate with
socioeconomic status?
Cognitive Development
Consider the following questions:
· How does the cognitive development of an 8-year-old
compares and contrasts to that of a person about to graduate
from college, considering the relationship of scaffolding to
cognitive development?
· How has technology impacted cognitive development in
middle childhood? What practical advice should helping
professionals give to parents who want to protect their children
from harm, but also provide them with the advantages of
technology?
· What is the role of egocentrism in cognitive functioning and in
social interactive functioning for elementary school -aged
children?
· What are some of the factors influencing social-emotional
development of elementary school-aged children?
· What are some best practices which support a child's learning?
it should describe:
The child's strengths and challenges.
The medical, family, and social context.
The developmental challenges evident in the behavior of the
child.

3. Individual and cultural factors that theory and/or research
indicate could impact the child's development.
Any other factors you deem appropriate based on your
understanding of the theory and related research.
To develop this case, you should:
Explore theory and research related to early childhood
development in the cognitive domain.
Use either Piaget or Vygotsky to describe those age- or
stage-related milestones expected at the age of your selected
child.
Develop your case by creating a challenge for the child in
the cognitive domain in early childhood. Describe what the
child struggles with in not meeting the expected theoretical
milestones in the cognitive domain.
Explore, through theory and research, Bronfenbrenner's
ecological theory of the various systems that can influence
development. Describe the typical influences in those
systems that would likely be most evident for a child in the
preschool years.
Develop your case study further by creating an
environmental context for the child in specific systems in
Bronfenbrenner's theory. Include any specific issues that you
want to explore through research, such as influences of a
specific culture or ethnicity, specific socioeconomic status,
family structure, attachment issues, and neighborhood
context.

4. Maintain a resource list of the materials you consulted to
build your case.
Follow current APA guidelines for style and formatting, as well
as for citing your resources. Include a reference list of the
scholarly resources you use.
Part 2: Case Intervention Analysis: Early Childhood
Research
Complete the following:
Research evidence-based interventions that have been
effective in meeting the challenges of the child you
described in your case study, from the perspective of your
own professional specialization (as far as possible).
Explain how the deficits in the cognitive and other
developmental domains affect development in early
childhood.
Explain how the environmental contexts impact
development and functioning.
State the recommended interventions that align with your
specialization.
Include evidence for those outcomes from the professional
literature.

5. Explore briefly the literature on cognitive development over
time, considering that early influences can impact
development across the lifespan.
Explain, from the perspective of your specialization, how
the early cognitive challenges could be manifested across
the lifespan.
Explain how (or whether) this might help in understanding
and determining an approach to working with an individual
who had early cognitive challenges.
Structure of the Report
Use the following format to structure your report:
Title page.
A descriptive title of 5–15 words that concisely

name of the fictional subject. Be sure to follow Capella's
suggested format for title pages on course papers.
Introduction.
An overview of the paper contents, including a brief

6. summary (approximately half a page) of the background
information regarding the case study. (The complete 1–2-
page case you developed will be included as an appendix.)
Body of the report.
The presenting challenges and primary issues.
An analysis of how lifespan development theory and
research may account for the presenting cognitive
challenges. Highlight
why
the child is developing as described.
A description of your selected child with attention to age-
expected outcomes in cognitive development, as well as
specific challenges the child has in not meeting those
milestones.
A description of the factors in the child's environment
linked to Bronfenbrenner's theory that have an impact on
his or her overall development.
An assessment of the potential impact of individual and
cultural differences on development for the current age and
context described in the case study.
Evidence-based interventions that have been effective in
meeting the described challenges of your selected child,
from the perspective of your own professional
specialization.
An explanation of how the deficits in the cognitive domain

7. or environmental contexts impact functioning in other
domains, such as social or emotional development
(considering that in developing your
case
, the theoretical emphasis was on the cognitive domain).
