Demonstrate your understanding of the 5 main theories from our unit: Behaviourism, Cognitivism, Humanism, Ecological Systems Theory, Sociocultural Theory.

Select one of the three provided case studies. Reflect upon the behaviour displayed and describe the approaches you could use to guide and support the child. While these scenarios present complex issues which relate to ethnicity and culture, students are reminded that the focus of this Case Analysis is to explore the behavior displayed, respond with effective strategies whilst critically considering principles, policies and practices, and to identify and clarify the role of appropriate professionals and/or support agencies in supporting teachers, children and families. *Demonstrate your understanding of the 5 main theories from our unit: Behaviourism, Cognitivism, Humanism, Ecological Systems Theory, Sociocultural Theory. *We recommend connecting to AT LEAST 3 theories, as a bare minimum. Compare & contrast the theories When approaching your case study response, remember that you have a snap shot of information about the learner. Therefore, careful consideration is needed when identifying reasons for the behaviour, providing strategies with the consideration of policies and practices, and considering appropriate professionals and/or support agencies. An exemplary case analysis will provide: •identification and discussion of a variety of effective strategies and interventions that could support the learner in the case study in the learning environment to make decisions and guide their own behaviour •identification of how you would plan and prepare the physical and social environment to contribute to the child’s relationship with others, support learning, and adhere to positive models of behaviour management •consideration and discussion of the behaviour framework, strategy and model you would apply for your chosen case study •discussion of theories that have been used to guide approaches to behaviour management •identification of how you can make effective use of principles, policies and practices used for establishing and maintaining a productive learning environment •identification and clarification of the role of external agencies and professionals in supporting teachers, children and families. Case analysis format When writing your response, the following structure is recommended: •analysis •findings •recommendations.
