Physical Development

This week for the discussion thread I want you do the Revel Assignment for the week then read ONE of the 2 supplementary materials provided below. And answer the associated questions for the article you chose (1-2 SHORT/MEDIUM PARAGRAPHS-) :
YOU CAN USE QUESTIONS 1 OR 2 TO DEVELOP. READ THE LIKNS PROVIDES AND Textbook: REVEL: Child Development: A Cultural Approach, 2nd edition by Jeffrey Arnett

QUESTION#1
1) The first supplementary piece is about new norms established by the World Health Organization –

World Health Organization Development Study Results: Gross Motor Milestones In the First Year

If you choose this piece answer: Who are Arnett’s norms based on? Who are the WHO norms based on? How do WHO motor norms compare to the norms in Arnett text? (same, more advanced, more delayed?) How do you explain the difference/similarity? (USE A QUOTE FROM EITHER ARNETT OR THE ARTICLE TO SUPPORT YOUR EXPLANATION).

QUESTION#2
2) The second supplementary piece is about how cultural differences in motor development and how cultural practices influence them
https://pediatricapta.org/includes/fact-sheets/pdfs/18 Motor Dev Variations Across Cultures FS.pdf
If you choose this piece answer: What are some of the cultural differences that stand out to you, compared to Arnett’s (largely American) developmental norms? What are the cultural practices that explain the differences you point out? What are some of the activities that members of your own culture engage in that may influence motor milestones? Lastly, is motor development genetically determined or culturally determined (or both)? (USE A QUOTE FROM EITHER ARNETT OR THE ARTICLE TO SUPPORT YOUR ANSWER.)
