Follow Piaget Theory when referring from concrete to abstract, so that we can help out students to guide to a more appropriate book. If needed, we must provide scaffolding to take them into the more abstract.
Developmental Stage: Havinghurst
Learning how to get along with others, interacting with the opposite sex and building friendships, finding their vocation about what they want to do, working for pay, adapting to their physical changes, etc.
Moral: Kohlberg's Theory
Preconventional -
Most students and adults go through this stage. Kids make decisions based on if they are getting a reward. We see this more in elementary students. Good behavior = Good reward. Bad behavior=No reward
Conventional -
This stage is following the rules in society and/or religion.
Postconventional -
For this stage the life on an individual is better than following the rules. For example: Rosa Parks decided not give up her seat because of skin color.
Reflection:
This is great information to help me as a librarian on how understand the students' needs when looking for books. Its always best to know the students and understand their issues and curiosity. I want students to be able to become life long learners! All my ten years teaching have been at the elementary level and I'm not really exposed to any teens or yet alone young adults. I like the fact that I can use this information to guide in my possible secondary years.
