ERIK H. ERIKSON: A LIFE'S WORK
04:00  - 3 years ago
Using archival materials and newly shot footage, this film introduces students to the rich wisdom of Erik H. Erikson. Best known for his identification of the eight stages of the life cycle, Erikson spent a lifetime observing and studying the way in which the interplay of genetics, cultural influences and unique experiences produces individual human lives. This film combines biographical information about Erikson with his theoretical proposals to give students an understanding of the relationship between the life experience of a theorist and the work that is produced. The film is narrated by Erikson's colleague, Margaret Brenman-Gibson, Ph.D., and Ruthie Mickles, Ph.D. (1991, 38 minutes) (This is a 4-minute sample) This film is part of the acclaimed GIANTS series, which focuses on the great theorists in the realms of psychology and education. The series also profiles the work and thought of Mary Ainsworth, Albert Bandura, John Dewey, Maria Montessori, Jean Piaget, B.F. Skinner, and Lev Vygotsky.
