The theory describes a compounded “layers” of environment: the Microsystem, the mesosystem, the exosystem, the Macrosystem, and the chronosystem each layer having an effect on child’s development. The implication it has, the theory on teaching is that it highlights the importance of bi-directional interactions, a good relationship of a child’s caregiver with teachers at school it brings
Microsystem Talks about the closest person to a child and the person who may have exact contact with a child while growing up. In this situation we may include places like home, school, day-care, or work. A microsystem normally covers family, peers, or caregivers. Relationships in a microsystem are bi-directional. In other words, your reactions to the people in your microsystem will have effect on how they treat you back.
In the MOHO model, it is believed that a human being is a dynamic system which involves inputs and outputs. In the PEOP model, it is an ecological approach that believe occupational performance is a consequence of interaction between people, occupations and environmental context. Considering the structures of
Definition of culture: Culture can be defined as a set of beliefs, values, principles, outlooks, suppositions and perspectives that discerns inhabitants of one society from others.

External culture is
The five systems of Urie Bronferbernner’s ecological model play an important role in human development. It consists of microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem and chronosystem. According to Berk (2000), microsystem is meant by the environment a person is living is link bi-directly to them. This system involves interactions and relationship of an individual with their immediate surroundings such as family, peers, school and neighborhood (Berk, 2000). As for mesosystem, it is a system that has a connection between microsystem which is can also be explain by having a parents and school context (Ryan, 2001).
54). Andersen and Berk (1998) take on the nurture perspective, while Leary (1999) claims that nature is the determining factor of a person’s personality. Andersen and Berk discuss the impact of old relationships on new/present relationships; notably, the “activation of mental representations of significant others and the use of these representations in relation to new individuals underlie transference, and thus that transference occurs as a result of basic principles that govern the activation and use of social constructs”
4.0 FACTORS A number of factors that affect information behavior emerge from these Wilson’s models: 1. Context: The environment in which an information actor (any of the parties involved in information or communication behavior) operates. This includes location, social influences, culture, activity-related and work-related factors, finances and technology. As an umbrella term, context may also be taken to include personal factors: demographics, expertise and psychological factors, which are defined below. 2.
Orhungur (1990) emphasised that the socio-economic status of the family plays a significant role in determining their cultural background. An individual’s perception about the society and his interaction with it is mainly determined by his childhood experiences at home. A child’s personality is moulded chiefly by the family set up and its socializing nature (Abosede M. Ewumi). The kind of motivation the students receive from their diverse environments has a great influence on their attitudes to education and educational practices. Hence it is clear that students’ attitude and performance is dependent on the stimulus the home provides.
(1993) developed a person-environment fit theory of school engagement. This model incorporates both the individual and the environment in which the child is situated. It focuses on the contribution of the educational enviro
