1.1.1 Hierarchy of Needs
Theorist: Abraham Maslow
Importance/Relevance to Teachers: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a
psychological theory that ranks human needs in a pyramid structure, from
basic physiological needs to self-actualization. Understanding this theory
helps teachers to:
Identify and Address Basic Needs: Ensure students' basic needs
(food, safety, etc.) are met, which is crucial for their readiness to learn
(Maslow, 1943).
Create a Safe Environment: Foster a sense of safety and security in
the classroom (Maslow, 1943).
Promote Belongingness: Develop a classroom culture where
students feel accepted and valued, boosting their confidence and
motivation (Maslow, 1943).
Encourage Self-Esteem and Growth: Support students' self-esteem
and recognize their achievements, encouraging further development
(Maslow, 1943).
, Foster Self-Actualization: Help students reach their full potential by
providing opportunities for creativity and problem-solving (Maslow,
1943).
1.1.2 Attachment Theory
Theorist: John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth
Importance/Relevance to Teachers: Attachment Theory focuses on the
bonds between children and their caregivers, emphasizing the impact of
early relationships on development. For teachers:
Recognize Attachment Styles: Understand different attachment
styles (secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganized) to better address
students' emotional needs (Bowlby, 1969; Ainsworth, Blehar, Waters,
& Wall, 1978).
Build Trusting Relationships: Create a stable, trusting relationship
with students, which is essential for their emotional and social
development (Bowlby, 1969).
Provide Emotional Support: Offer consistent support and
understanding, especially for students showing signs of insecure
attachment (Ainsworth et al., 1978).
, Promote Positive Interactions: Encourage positive peer
interactions, helping students develop healthy social skills (Ainsworth
et al., 1978).
1.1.3 Psychosocial Theory of Development
Theorist: Erik Erikson
Importance/Relevance to Teachers: Erikson's theory outlines eight
stages of psychosocial development, each characterized by a specific
conflict that must be resolved. Teachers can:
Understand Developmental Stages: Recognize the challenges
students face at different ages, such as trust vs. mistrust (infancy) or
identity vs. role confusion (adolescence) (Erikson, 1950).
Support Identity Formation: Help students navigate identity issues
during adolescence, offering guidance and support (Erikson, 1950).
Foster a Sense of Competence: Encourage students to take on
tasks and challenges, building their sense of industry and
competence (Erikson, 1950).
Promote Social and Emotional Growth: Provide opportunities for
students to develop social skills and self-confidence (Erikson, 1950).
