In class we watched a video about a broken toy study conducted in China and Canada. After observing this video we had an extended discussion about

a. how parents should handle situations where their young children intentionally break other children's toys (e.g., should parents use verbal explanations, time outs, or natural consequences methods, and whether these techniques are equally effective in each culture)
b. the development of children's reasoning about forgiveness and how these notions are very different in China than in Canada (e.g., expectations about asking for forgiveness and the nature of the relation between forgiveness and compassion)
c. which disciplinary practices should teachers use with their students (e.g., whether it is appropriate to scold children as a group for the actions of one particular individual)
d. how one could create a comparable experimental situation in both countries (e.g., whether the room where the experiment is conducted should be the same and whether parents should act in the same way)


Ans: d. how one could create a comparable experimental situation in both countries (e.g., whether the room where the experiment is conducted should be the same and whether parents should act in the same way)
