Human Development Theory

Human Development Theory explores how people grow and change physically, emotionally, socially, and intellectually throughout their lives. It examines stages from childhood to adulthood, highlighting key milestones and the factors that influence development. The theory emphasizes that development is a continuous process shaped by biological, environmental, and cultural factors. Understanding this helps us support individuals' well-being and learning at different life stages, recognizing that growth varies person by person but follows certain general patterns.
