negative: U-shaped development U-shaped development , also known as U-shaped learning , is the typical pattern by which select physical , artistic , and cognitive skills are developed . It is called `` U '' shape development because of the shape of the letter U in correlation to a graph , skills developed in the `` U shaped '' fashion begin on a high position on a graph 's Y-axis . The skills start out at a high performance level and over time the skills descend to a lower position on the Y-axis . After another period of time the skill once again ascends to a higher position on the y-axis . A `` U '' shaped time line is created of the skills development .  U-shaped development can be seen in cognitive skills such as learning new words , or doing high level algorithms in mathematics . The skill can also be artistic such as painting or playing a musical instrument , and physical skills such a walking and weight lifting .

negative: Life skills-based education Life skills have been defined by the World Health Organization ( WHO ) as `` abilities for adaptive and positive behavior that enable individuals to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of everyday life '' . They represent the psycho-social skills that determine valued behaviour and include reflective skills such as problem-solving and critical thinking , to personal skills such as self-awareness , and to interpersonal skills . Practicing life skills leads to qualities such as self-esteem , sociability and tolerance , to action competencies to take action and generate change , and to capabilities to have the freedom to decide what to do and who to be . Life skills are thus distinctly different from physical or perceptual motor skills , such as practical or health skills , as well as from livelihood skills , such as crafts , money management and entrepreneurial skills . Health and livelihood education however , can be designed to be complementary to life skills education , and vice versa .   Life skills-based education ( LSBE ) has a long history of supporting child development and health promotion in many parts . In 1986 , the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion recognized life skills in terms of making better health choices . The 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child ( CRC ) linked life skills to education by stating that education should be directed towards the development of the child 's fullest potential . The 1990 Jomtien Declaration on Education for All took this vision further and included life skills among essential learning tools for survival , capacity development and quality of life . The 2000 Dakar World Education Conference took a position that all young people and adults have the human right to benefit from `` an education that includes learning to know , to do , to live together and to be '' , and included life skills in two out of the six EFA Goals .   Life skills-based education is now recognized as a methodology to address a variety of issues of child and youth development and thematic responses including as expressed in UNGASS on HIV/AIDS ( 2001 ) , UNGASS on Children ( 2002 ) , World Youth Report ( 2003 ) , World Program for Human Rights Education ( 2004 ) , UN Decade on Education for Sustainable Development ( 2005 ) , UN Secretary General 's Study on Violence Against Children ( 2006 ) , 51st Commission on the Status of Women ( 2007 ) , and the World Development Report ( 2007 ) .   Expected learning outcomes include a combination of knowledge , values , attitudes and skills with a particular emphasis on those skills that related to critical thinking and problem solving , self-management and communication and inter-personal skills .

negative: Nonuniversal theory Nonuniversal theory is a theory of cognitive development first created by David Henry Feldman , a professor at the Eliot-Pearson School of Child Development at Tufts University . The theory proposes that development occurs in domain-specific stages ( versus the universal stages of Piaget and others ) . The stages are : novice , apprentice , journeyman , craftsman , expert and master .   The transition of one stage to the next is one of the core concepts of the theory . In it , development begins with the consolidation of a skill set . Outlying skills are brought closer together through integration of advanced skills or development of retarded skills . The next step is elaboration , where new skills are added . This is followed by a period of stagnation , followed by a phase in which a novel skill emerges which is more advanced than the others . This novel skill then pulls the other skills along with it in a phase called reversion . Then the process repeats itself with another stage of consolidation . This continues until the learner reaches the master level .   Note that the drive for personal skill development does n't always cease at this particular point , it can cease at any phase and typically ceases during a protracted stagnation phase .

negative: Transferable skills analysis Transferable skills analysis is a set of tests or logic to determine what positions a person may fill if their previous position ( s ) no longer exists in the local job market , or they can no longer perform their last position ( s ) ( e.g. , because of an injury ) . An informal transferable skills analysis can be performed with the help of a career counselor , career portfolio or a career planning article or book .

negative: Finishing school (India) Finishing School ( in International cities )   Finishing schools are supplementary , extra curricular specialised schools in most modern cities , teaching and training people - from youngsters to seniors , to empower them with valuable self confidence , upper class personality and refinements for their personal , social and business lifestyles and society .   Initially Finishing Schools were famously located in Europe , and best known to be in Switzerland but slowly and surely , this education has branched out to cities over the world . Earlier , Finishing Schools were mostly attended by members of royal families , celebrities , wealthy people and by those in the upper strata of society for their future roles in public life or to enter high society . Now , there is a realisation that these subjects , also known as Soft Skills trainings in professional life , are hardly taught at schools and universities of the world . Empowering topics and subjects include Personality Development , Image Management , Body Language , Communication Skills , Postures , Gestures and expressions ; Fine grooming , Dress Sense , Fine Dining ; Handling Sensitivity of Criticism , Negativity , Anger Management and allied skills . These skills are equally or even more powerful than only academic and vocational skills .

negative: Collaborative Professional Development CPD in the context of NCETM means Collaborative Professional Development ( not `` Continuing Professional Development '' as in some other contexts ) .   The essence of `` Collaborative '' is that teachers work in groups and develop skills together . Thus it is an _ ongoing_relationship - just as a pet is `` not just for Christmas '' , so CPD is `` not just for one day '' but is continuing AND collaborative .   CPD also has elements of inter-colleague support , and of ` cascading ' within a learning institution . It derives professional skills as socially constructed , and not learned via didactics .   Informal , versus formal , collaboration can be more effective for all , due to the Professional Trust embodied by the informal and non-directed nature of the work . Teachmeets are an example of this unmanaged unconference phenomena .   Category : Personal development

negative: Swarna Jayanti Shahari Rozgar Yojana Swarna Jayanti Shahari Rozgar Yojana ( SJSRY ) in India is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme which came into effect on 1 December 1997 . The scheme strives to provide gainful employment to the urban unemployed and underemployed poor , through encouraging the setting up of self-employment ventures by the urban and rural poor living below the poverty line .   The SJSRY scheme is being implemented on a cost-sharing basis between the Centre and the States in the ratio of 75:25 . Given the low allocations for the scheme , only about 2 lakh urban poor under skill development and 50,000 under self-employment are being benefitted under SJSRY annually . The target under skill development of the urban poor is very small considering that the number of urban poor was estimated at 81 million in 2004-05 and that nationally a target of 500 million persons to be skill-trained by 2022 has been fixed by the National Council on Skill Development .

negative: Personal development planning Personal development planning is the process of creating an action plan based on awareness , values , reflection , goal-setting and planning for personal development within the context of a career , education , relationship or for self-improvement .   The PDP ( personal development plan ) , also called an IDP ( individual development plan ) or a PEP ( personal enterprise plan ) , usually includes a statement of one 's aspirations , strengths or competencies , education and training , and stages or steps to indicate how the plan is to be realized . Personal development plans may also include a statement of one 's career and lifestyle priorities , career positioning , analysis of opportunities and risks , and alternative plans ( Plan B ) , and a curriculum vitae ( CV ) .   In higher education , personal development plans typically include a portfolio containing evidence of the skills gathered over a particular timeframe . It is presumed in education that undertaking PDPs will assist in creating self-directed independent learners who are more likely to progress to higher levels of academic attainment . Human-resource management also uses PDPs .   Personal development plans are often a requirement for employee CVs . Employees who participate in business training are often asked to complete a personal development plan .   An individual can often develop a five-year personal development plan to organize personal goals and to make them achievable within a certain time-period .

negative: Key Skills Qualification The Key Skills Qualification is a frequently required component of 14-20 education in England , Northern Ireland and Wales .

It is generally available in schools ( alongside GCSEs , A-levels or other qualifications ) , Further Education colleges ( alongside NVQ , as part of Apprenticeship training or other equivalent vocational or academic courses ) and other places of learning ( sometimes alongside other qualifications and sometimes independently ) . The qualifications can be taken at levels 1-4 .   The Department for Children , Schools and Families in England and the Department for Children , Education , Lifelong Learning and Skills in Wales define Key Skills as `` a range of essential skills that underpin success in education , employment , lifelong learning and personal development '' . The DfES website states that the Key Skills Qualification is offered as a response to concern from employers about lack of essential skills in young recruits and as part of the response to the 1996 Dearing Report . Key Skills qualifications at levels 2-4 attract UCAS Tariff points for University admissions.The UCAS tariff is a points system used to report achievement for entry to higher education ( HE ) in a numerical format .

negative: Childhood development of fine motor skills Fine motor skills are the coordination of small muscle movements which occur e.g. , in the fingers , usually in coordination with the eyes . In application to motor skills of hands ( and fingers ) the term dexterity is commonly used .   The abilities which involve the use of hands develop over time , starting with primitive gestures such as grabbing at objects to more precise activities that involve precise eye -- hand coordination . Fine motor skills are skills that involve a refined use of the small muscles controlling the hand , fingers , and thumb . The development of these skills allows one to be able to complete tasks such as writing , drawing , and buttoning .

negative: Developmental psychology Developmental psychology is the scientific study of how and why human beings change over the course of their life . Originally concerned with infants and children , the field has expanded to include adolescence , adult development , aging , and the entire lifespan . This field examines change across three major dimensions : physical development , cognitive development , and socioemotional development . Within these three dimensions are a broad range of topics including motor skills , executive functions , moral understanding , language acquisition , social change , personality , emotional development , self-concept and identity formation .   Developmental psychology examines the influences of nature and nurture on the process of human development , and processes of change in context and across time . Many researchers are interested in the interaction between personal characteristics , the individual 's behavior and environmental factors , including social context and the built environment . Ongoing debates include biological essentialism vs. neuroplasticity and stages of development vs. dynamic systems of development .   Developmental psychology involves a range of fields , such as , educational psychology , child psychopathology , forensic developmental psychology , child development , cognitive psychology , ecological psychology , and cultural psychology . Influential developmental psychologists from the 20th century include Urie Bronfenbrenner , Erik Erikson , Sigmund Freud , Jean Piaget , Barbara Rogoff , Esther Thelen , and Lev Vygotsky .

They are frequently connected with substance abuse ; however , people with addictive personalities are also highly at risk of becoming addicted to gambling , food , pornography , exercise , work , and codependency . Scientists have been better able to understand addictive personalities as researchers delve further into understanding the chemistry of addiction . Alan R. Lang of Florida State University , author of an addiction study prepared for the United States National Academy of Sciences , said , `` If we can better identify the personality factors , they can help us devise better treatment and can open up new strategies to intervene and break the patterns of addiction .

negative: Person having ordinary skill in the art A person having ordinary skill in the art ( abbreviated PHOSITA ) , a person of ( ordinary ) skill in the art ( POSITA , PSITA ) , a person skilled in the art , a skilled addressee or simply a skilled person is a legal fiction found in many patent laws throughout the world . This fictional person is considered to have the normal skills and knowledge in a particular technical field , without being a genius . He or she mainly serves as a reference for determining , or at least evaluating , whether an invention is non-obvious or not ( in U.S. patent law ) , or involves an inventive step or not ( in European patent laws ) . If it would have been obvious for this fictional person to come up with the invention while starting from the prior art , then the particular invention is considered not patentable .   In some patent laws , the person skilled in the art is also used as a reference in the context of other criteria , for instance in order to determine whether an invention is sufficiently disclosed in the description of the patent or patent application ( sufficiency of disclosure is a fundamental requirement in most patent laws ) , or in order to determine whether two technical means are equivalents when evaluating infringement ( see also doctrine of equivalents ) .   In practice , this legal fiction is a set of legal fictions which evolved over time and which may be differently construed for different purposes . This legal fiction basically translates the need for each invention to be considered in the context of the technical field it belongs to .

negative: Career portfolio Career portfolios are used to plan , organize and document education , work samples and skills . People use career portfolios to apply to jobs , apply to college or training programs , get a higher salary , show transferable skills , and to track personal development . They are more in-depth than a resume , which is used to summarize the above in one or two pages . Career portfolios serve as proof of one 's skills , abilities , and potential in the future .  Career portfolios are becoming common in high schools , college , and workforce development . Many school programs will have students create , update , and use a career portfolio before moving on to the next level in life .   Career portfolios help with a job or acceptance into higher education institutes . A career portfolio should be personal and contain critical information . Items that should be included include ( but are not limited to ) personal information , evaluations , sample work , and awards and acknowledgments . Career portfolios are often kept in a simple three-ring binder or online as an electronic portfolio and updated often . A career portfolio is used as a marketing tool in selling oneself for personal advancement . In some industries , employers or admission offices commonly request a career portfolio , so it is a wise idea to have an updated one on hand .

negative: Temperament In psychology , temperament refers to those aspects of an individual 's personality , such that are often regarded as biologically based and sometimes innate rather than learned . A great many classificatory schemes for temperament have been developed ; none , though , has achieved general consensus in academia .   Historically , the concept of temperament ( `` temperamentums '' in Latin means `` mixtures '' ) was a part of the theory of the four humors , with their corresponding four temperaments . The historical concept played an identifiable part in pre-modern psychology , and was explored by philosophers , psychologists , psychiatrists and psycho-physiologists such as Immanuel Kant , Hermann Lotze , Ivan Pavlov , Carl Jung , Gerardus Heymans , etc. . More recently , scientists seeking evidence of a biological basis of personality have further examined the relationship between temperament and neurotransmitter systems and character ( defined in this context as developmental aspects of personality ) . However , biological correlations have proven hard to confirm .

The list of manned Mars mission plans in the 20th century shows the various mission proposals that have been put forth by multiple organizations and space agencies in this field of space exploration .   In the 2010s , numerous Chinese , European and American agencies were developing proposals for human missions to Mars . None have moved past the planning stages .   In fiction , the concept of humans traveling to and terraforming Mars has been explored in books , graphic novels , and films .

negative: Robinson Crusoe Robinson Crusoe -LSB- ˌrɒbɪnsən_ˈkruːsoʊ -RSB- is a novel by Daniel Defoe , first published on 25 April 1719 . The first edition credited the work 's protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author , leading many readers to believe he was a real person and the book a travelogue of true incidents .   Epistolary , confessional , and didactic in form , the book is presented as an autobiography of the title character ( whose birth name is Robinson Kreutznaer ) -- a castaway who spends twenty-eight years on a remote tropical desert island near Trinidad , encountering cannibals , captives , and mutineers , before ultimately being rescued . The story has since been thought to be based on the life of Alexander Selkirk , a Scottish castaway who lived for four years on a Pacific island called `` Más a Tierra '' , now part of Chile , which was renamed Robinson Crusoe Island in 1966 , but various literary sources have also been suggested .   Despite its simple narrative style , Robinson Crusoe was well received in the literary world and is often credited as marking the beginning of realistic fiction as a literary genre . It is generally seen as a contender for the first English novel . Before the end of 1719 , the book had already run through four editions , and it has gone on to become one of the most widely published books in history , spawning numerous imitations in film , television and radio that its name was used to define a genre , Robinsonade .

negative: Science fiction film Science fiction film ( or sci-fi ) is a genre that uses speculative , fictional science-based depictions of phenomena that are not fully accepted by mainstream science , such as extraterrestrial lifeforms , alien worlds , extrasensory perception and time travel , along with futuristic elements such as spacecraft , robots , cyborgs , interstellar travel or other technologies . Science fiction films have often been used to focus on political or social issues , and to explore philosophical issues like the human condition . In many cases , tropes derived from written science fiction may be used by filmmakers ignorant of or at best indifferent to the standards of scientific plausibility and plot logic to which written science fiction is traditionally held .   The genre has existed since the early years of silent cinema , when Georges Melies ' A Trip to the Moon ( 1902 ) employed trick photography effects . The next major example in the genre was the film Metropolis ( 1927 ) - being the first feature length science fiction movie . From the 1930s to the 1950s , the genre consisted mainly of low-budget B movies . After Stanley Kubrick 's landmark 2001 : A Space Odyssey ( 1968 ) , the science fiction film genre was taken more seriously . In the late 1970s , big-budget science fiction films filled with special effects became popular with audiences after the success of Star Wars and paved the way for the blockbuster hits of subsequent decades .
