Bronfenbrenner's Ecological System - 5 Forces That Influence Our Lives

In 1964, most people believed that the reason people become poor was a matter of biology and had little to do with the environment in which they grew up. Urie Bronfenbrenner, a young psychologist, helped us understand that a child's environment also plays a role. When he was invented to explain his ecosystem theory to the U.S. Congress, he made history.

They are then asked to explain to a classmate the connections between the different forces and their effects on their lives. Later, you can ask your students what they know about poverty? Do they also exist in your country and if so, how would a poor child's systems differ from theirs? You may even want to have your students simulate a convention and create an action plan to combat poverty in your country. Who knows, maybe one day it will come true ;).
