Question 1 Many psychologists believe that one of the most important stages
of cognitive development is symbolic play. You have been given a task to help
a group of parents to understand symbolic play. In ten (10) points, explain in
what way the quality of children’s symbolic play can have consequences on
the children’s later development. Include examples that are relevant to the
group of parents you are speaking to. Indicate the age of the learners that you
are referring to. (20) Question 2 2.1 Some researchers found that the

can shape children’s development and behaviours. (20) 2.2 Refer to African
perspectives on child development. Summarise the main points and compare
this to Western perspectives. (20) Question 3 Discuss the significance of
Educational Psychology for teachers in South Africa. (10) Question 4
Motivation in the classroom Instructions 1. What activities can you give
learners to evaluate the following perspectives of motivation: Behavioural,
Humanistic, Cognitive, Social cognitive and Sociocultural conceptions. (20) 2.
Do a literature search for two articles that deal with differences in motivation

findings). Provide the full bibliographic references of your two articles (10)

Question 1: The Importance of Symbolic Play in Cognitive
Development (20 marks)

, Symbolic play, also known as imaginative or pretend play, is
recognized as a critical component of early cognitive

would span about half a page, giving context to the subsequent
points.
1.2 Language Development (Expanded)
Symbolic play contributes significantly to language
development by encouraging children to name objects, actions,
and ideas during their imaginative activities. This section will
delve into how children learn new vocabulary through role-
playing, mimicking adult language, and storytelling. Real-world
examples, such as children playing “doctor,” help demonstrate
how they practice using technical terms like “stethoscope” or
“injection.” This discussion would cover one and a half pages.
1.3 Problem-Solving Skills
This point will be expanded by incorporating cognitive theories
of problem-solving, showing how children engage in trial and
