Bronfenbrenner's ecological theory - Framework for thinking about the contexts of kids lives. Individual in the center- focus of the concern. 1st- Microsystems- most intimate. 2nd- mesosystem 3rd- exosystem. 4- macro system. 5- chronosystem.
1.Microsystems- Immediately involved, directly participate. Reciprocally participate. We are in it and everything we do and say has an impact. DEFINITION- The system in which we are directly involved. Ex) school, peers, neighborhood play area, church group, family, health services...(social services)
2.Mesosystem- Intermediate/between. The system that connects different systems. what happens in one Microsystems has an impact on another- they are all connected. A connecting system..the funny system.
3. Exosystem- (external- on the outside) cannot be directly influenced by the microsystem. E cannot have a direct impact of this. Ex) Neighbors, legal services, social welfare services, mass media, friends of family.
Top three are social systems, next point is intellectual.
4.Macro system Attitudes and ideologies of the culture.
5. Chronosystem- Sociohistorical conditions of ones life course. - All the feature as of our life or functions that are there because of where we are in life. Our generation is known as millenniums. Ex) our generation doesn't remember a time without Internet.
