In completing this activity I couldn't help but be reminded of school psychologists' beloved Urie Bronfenbrenner's own Ecological theory of development. The Ecological theory of development seeks to see each individual within his or her whole environmental context, taking into mind individual factors such as personality and behavior as well the larger environment such as the individual's family, community, and culture. I also decided to take a general educator's view seeing as helping the general student population to become better learners will be one of my main goals as a school psychologist.
With Mr. Bronfenbrenner in mind, I created this list, doing my best to think of the learner with an Ecological view in mind.
One thing I struggled with in brainstorming this list was separating personal factors and behaviors. I sort of felt like behaviors could have fallen under the hat of personal factors.
