7. * What is maturation?

8. * Unfolding of internally programmed growth * Similar, but different from one individual to another * Need for physical readiness to master something

9. * What might be some psychological drawbacks of pushing a small child to master new skills too soon?

10. * Schema- an idea about what something should look like * We help shape our understanding of the world through schemas * Ex. Classroom makeup * How we eat at a restaurant

11. * Constantly strive to make sense of the world * Age, maturation, experience, and environment work together to shape our schemas

12. * Stereotype- something generalized that you assume/believe about a group of people based on one, or a few, experiences * Stereotype is essentially a schema * Can be good or bad * Key words to look out for: * All, every, none * Prejudice- a learned attitude towards someone/somet hing based on a stereotype you have

13. * Girls with blonde hair are dumb * Football players don’t try in school * All Asians are smart * Women are bad drivers * Girls are smarter than boys * All girls like pink * Jewish people are cheap * Boys are better at sports * All Mexicans are tan and short * Every Hispanic is here illegally * People with glasses are really smart

14. * Assimilation- to place a new stimulus into your already made schema and try to make it fit * Ex. Ms.Bors learning English

15. Assimilation - See tomato and assume it’s an apple because it’s red. Schema- Learn what an apple is.

16. * Then you try to fit something new into your schema… * … As you’re assimilating it, you realize that it just doesn’t fit into your schema, so…

17. * Accommodation- to change your schema based on new information * Form a new view based on this experience! * Ex. Schema- people with facial tattoos are mean and dirty

18. Assimilation- assume all things in the air are birds. Accommodation- learning the difference between bird and plane.

19. 1. Being able to start walking because your bones are strong enough. 2. An idea of what something looks like. 3. White men can’t jump is an example of what? 4. Seeing a pen you have never used before and using it like a pencil is an example of what? 5. Create a new schema because you know it doesn’t fit into an old schema. * Accommodation * Stereotype * Maturation * Schema * Assimilation
