The past week I have been learning/studying unit 1, about holistic development,  I learned about the value of music in holistic development and its theories. It has three theories which are Erikson's stages of psychosocial development, Piaget's cognitive theory and Vygotsky and the zone of proximal development. 

Erikson's theory describe the impact of social experience across the whole lifespan. It focus on how social interaction and relationships played a role in the development and growth of human beings. Piaget's cognitive theory focuses on how children learn for example children through interacting with people and they built knowledge on existing skills. Vygotsky and the zone of proximal development It draws attention on the socio- cultural factors that influence cognitive development.
