  form meaning based on their own experiences and
  how the learning actually occurs and not on what
  influences learning.

  CHILDHOOD DIMENSIONS REFLECTIONS
• ERIKSON WAS AN EGO PSYCHOLOGIST THAT DEVELOPED
  ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR AND INFLUENTIAL
  THEORIESOF DEVELOPMENT.
• Erikson's theory is about psychosocial
  development that helps an individual to predict,
  evaluate and interpret situations and behaviors
  of people and involves changes that not only in
  childrens overt behavior but also in their
  social cognition
• This theory also allows a person to know the ways
  on how an individual should react and intervene
  with clients who have certain backgrounds, issues
  or goals
• ACCORDING TO ERIKSONS VIEW, THESE CONFLICTS ARE
  CENTERED ON EITHER DEVELOPING A PSYCHOLOGICAL
  QUALITY OR FAILING TO DEVELOP THAT QUALITY

HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IN A I-TAUKEI PERSPECTIVE

• IN THE I-TAUKEI CULTURE, HUMAN DEVELOPMENT IS A
  PROCESS THAT EVERY INDIVIDUALS ARE RESPONSIBLE
  FOR AND ALL HAS A ROLE TO PLAY IN AN UPBRINGING
  OF A HUMAN BEING FROM INFANCY TO MATURITY AGE.
• IN OUR COMMUNITY, WE DO THINGS COLLECTIVELY AND
  TOGETHER AND HELP EACH OTHER WITH WHAT WE CAN
  CONTRIBUTE FOR AN UPBRINGING OF THAT CHILD.
• OUR CULTURE AND TRADITIONS ARE SUCH THAT MAJORITY
  HOUSEHOLDS IN THE PACIFIC LIVED WITH EXTENDED
  FAMILY BECAUSE OF THE SPIRIT OF TOGETHERNESS AND
  THE LOVE THAT WE HAVE FOR OUR LOVED ONES THAT
  MAKES US AS SUCH.
• AS A CHILD, WHETHER IT BE A FIJIAN OR PACIFIC
  ISLANDER, ARE NOT ONLY BEEN TAUGHT FROM THEIR
  PARENTS BUT FROM GRANDPARENTS, RELATIVES AND THE
  COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE.

I-TAUKEI COMMUNITY

• MAJORITY OF US HUMAN BEINGS LEARN AND DEVELOPED
  QUICKLY BY THE INFLUENCE AND IMPACTS THAT OUR
  SURROUNDINGS HAVE ON OUR LIVES WHETHER IT BE
  SPIRITUALLY, PHYSICALLY OR MENTALLY.
• OZER (2004) EMPHASIZED THAT THE PERCEPTUAL,
  ATTENTION AND MEMORY CAPACITIES OF CHILDREN ARE
  TRANSFORMED BY VITAL COGNITIVE TOOLS PROVIDED BY
  CUKTURE, HISTORY, SOCIAL CONTEXT, TRADITIONS,
  LANGUAGE AND RELIGION
• AS A PACIFIC ISLANDER, OUR CULTURE, TRADITION,
  RELIGION AND SOCIAL UPBRINGING DEFINES OUR
  IDENTITY, BACKGROUNDS AND LIFESTYLE
• THEREFORE, WE TEND TO WORK TOGETHER BECAUSE OF
  THE LOVE AND AFFECTION THAT PACIFIC ISLANDER HAVE
  DOES NOT WANT THEIR LOVED ONES TO BE LEFT BEHIND
  INSTEAD MAKE AND HELP THEM TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

CURRENT PERSPECTIVE ON HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

• John Locke and jean Jacques Rousseau focuses on
  early modern social contract theorists which both
  promotes a reason and freedom as essential
  components of political societies.
• In this era, education is the most important
  aspects in human development especially for a
  child as they grow up.
• as quoted by john Locke the well educating of
  their children is so much the duty and concern of
  parents, and the welfare and prosperity of the
  nation so much depends on it .
• Lockes method of education is meant to be
  observed by parents even from the time a child Is
  in the cradle, long before the teaching that
  comes from books (Locke, 1975).
• Therefore, parents should cherish curiosity in
  their children as a positive appetite and as
  education is an important current perspective of
  human development, children would need both
  mental and physical habits to aim for his own
  perfection.

• The educational methods of Rousseau and Locke
  emphasize either nurture or nature, based on
  different views of inclinations and on varying
  aims for the future of the educated child (Locke,
  1823). Locke, J. 1823. The Works of John Locke.
  London Printed for T. Tegg (10 volumes).
• As Locke's view for a child to be trained to
  become an individual of action in society, while
  Rousseau's view for a child to be trained to lead
  the simple natural life of beauty and simplicity
  slightly outside of society.
• In this modern time, children are most of the
  time being educated through the use of technology
  by accessing all sorts of websites to learn from
  as majority of the education platform are offered
  online and since children nowadays are familiar
  with the use of technology and resources it makes
  it easier for them to access internet.
• Hence, it is vital for parents to nurture to
  equip children with values, knowledge and skills
  that they need to acquire and remind them the
  importance of education as it will help them to
  develop themselves to achieve greater things and
  become successful in the future.
