Matrix of Theorists

Refer to Ch. 3 of Fundamentals of Early Childhood Education and the University Library to choose six early childhood theorists (Gessel, Skinner, Watson, Bandura, Freud, Erikson, Piaget, Cannella, Lubeck, New, Case, Fisher, Vygotsky, Siegler, Dodge, Bronfenbrenner). 

Research the internet for the definition of a matrix

Create a matrix of six theorists that briefly describes the following for each theorist: 

  • His or her major contributions to the field
  • The theory for which he or she is known
  • How his or her work has influenced early childhood today
