Teachers must understand that students differ in their psychological, cognitive, ethnic, and social backgrounds, which influence how they perceive and learn about the world. While development theories outline general stages of growth, each student's experiences are unique. Texts organized by age or type of behavior provide limited perspectives, so teachers should consider individual differences and actively involve students in constructing their own understanding.

Teachers need to also understand how kids come to know their world and themselves, because individual vary in how they perceive and think about the world around them. What may work well for one part of the class may not work quite so well. Students differ from one another in psychology development, cognitive development, ethnic background and social class. Development theory call attention to the overall sequence,continuity, and interrelatedness of aspects of development, but typically account for only limited facets of behavior. Texts organized in terms of ages levels make readers aware of varied aspects of children's behavior particular types of behavior emerge and change. And how although texts organized according to types of behavior do not have limitation of the age level approach, they make it difficult for the reader ti grasp the overall pattern of behavior of a particular stage of development. I learn from both article that we should not assume that student see things the same way we do. Also that one situation might be relevant to you and important to you, but a difference student might think differently. Teaching is more then just lliving knowledge to the students, it about helping them construct their understanding of their world and themselves.
Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.
