- Outline strategies for managing children’s behaviour. You need to show – You are aware that the EYFS requires you to manage behaviour in an appropriate way (page 28/29 sections 3.52 and 3.53 of the EYFS). You have an understanding that some behaviours are associated with particular stages of development and that you have suitable strategies in place to pre-empt and manage these types of behaviour. You’re aware of the need for consistency and reinforcement of boundaries. Your strategies take into account other influences that may be impacting on behaviour. You know how to get support with challenging behaviour.arrow_forwardName three genes whose mutations lead to an altered behavioral phenotype.

- Compare and contrast the biological theories of aging into a storytelling or you may also use any of those topics (• Compare and contrast the biological theories of aging • Alzheimer's Disease • What does it mean to "successfully age"? • Erikson's theory: integrity versus despair • Explore the ethics of euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide) to turn it into a storytelling Storytelling: Everyone loves a good story! How can you incorporate the topic of your choice into a good story? Students should frame the information into a quality story. Your characters do not have to be people. You may make fable, romance, adventure, a how-to, or whatever you like. The possibilities are endless. Be creative! Students should not merely rattle off facts and data. Use vivid language, dialogue, imagery, etc. Remember, a good story has a beginning, middle, and end. *NOTE: You will submit your story in written form. a.

- Main findings of the systematic review and meta-analysis of internet-based behavior change programs include: Internet-based interventions that also used text messages had large effects (bigger differences between treatment and control ) on behavior than Internet-based interventions that also used email O Interventions that didn't use theories or used them very little, tended to have larger effects (bigger differencees between treatment and control) on behavior than did interventions that used theories extensively All of the above O Interventions that used more techniques tended to have larger effects (bigger differences between treatment and control) on behavior than did interventions that used fewer techniquesarrow_forwardExplain in one paragraph how heredity (nature) can play a role in shaping one's personality and in a second paragraph how environment (nurture) can play a role in shaping one's personality.

You have cloned the gene underlying the disorder and have found that it encodes an enzyme that is overexpressed in the neurons of individuals who have the disorder. To better understand how this enzyme causes neurodegeneration in humans, you make a strain of transgenic Drosophila whose nerve cells overexpress the enzyme. a. How might you use these transgenic flies to try to gain insight into the disease or identify drugs that might be useful in the treatment of the disease? b. Can you think of any potential limitations of this approach?arrow_forward
