Developmental Ecology TheoryAs seen in “Boy Meets World”
By: Vanessa Ball, Marlynn Lopez, Andrew Nash
Learning Outcomes
•Students will be able to…▫understand Brofenbrenner’s
Developmental Ecology Theory▫incorporate process, person, context, and
time (PPCT) into case study analysis▫apply multiple theories to facilitate holistic
student development
Overview
•Overview of the Developmental Ecology Theory
•Observe “Boy Meets World” episode•Apply theory through group activity
Developmental Ecology Theory
•Interactions between individuals and their developmental context
•Focuses attention on the individuals rather than the cultures in which they are embedded
•"Development is a function of the interaction of the person and the environment"
Four components of Brofenbrenner’s Theory:
Process Person
Context Time
Process & Person
•Process – ▫interaction between organism and
environment that happens over time, producing human development
•Person - attributes of a person ▫developmentally instigative characteristics▫influence how an individual will experience
an environment and how the environment will respond to that individual

After the episode…
•What makes this a good or bad example of Brofenbrenner’s theory?
•When did you observe this theory in play?•What systems seemed to be prevalent?•What other theories may have applied to
the characters in this episode?
Instructions
•Break into five equally sized groups•Review your case study•Complete handout•Choose another theory that can be
applied in addition to Developmental Ecology Theory
•Deliver a 2-3 minute presentation on how you will apply these theories to resolve your case study
