Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development - ANSWER✔✔-Jean Piaget, a

Swiss psychologist, developed a theory of how cognition develops and

changes over time.


Four Stages of Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development - ANSWER✔✔-

Piaget proposed that a child's intellect progresses through four stages:


1) Sensorimotor (0-2)


2) Preoperational (2-7)


3) Concrete operational (7-11)


4) Formal operational (11-adulthood)


How does Piaget think kids learn? - ANSWER✔✔-Children learn through

active interaction and manipulation of the environment.

,What do Piaget's stages mean? - ANSWER✔✔-The stage the child is in

determines how they see the world. Piaget believed that all students pass

through the stages in order and cannot skip any stage.


Schemes - ANSWER✔✔-Mental patterns that guide behavior; cognitive

structures that help children process and organize information to make

sense of the environment.


Assimilation - ANSWER✔✔-Understanding new experiences in terms of

existing schemes.


Accommodation - ANSWER✔✔-Modifying existing schemes to fit new

situations in the environment.


Adaptation - ANSWER✔✔-The process of adjusting schemes in response to

the environment through assimilation or accommodation. According to

Piaget, this is how learning occurs.


Equilibration - ANSWER✔✔-The process of restoring balance between

present understanding and new experiences. According to Piaget, learning

depends on this process so it is important for teachers to confront students

with new experiences or data to advance their cognitive development.

,Disequilibrium - ANSWER✔✔-An imbalance between what a child

understands and what the child encounters through new experiences.


Sensorimotor Stage - ANSWER✔✔-The earliest stage (0-2) of cognitive

development during which infants learn about the environment by using

their senses and motor skills. Children develop object permanence and

progress from reflexive behavior to goal-directed behavior.


Object Permanence - ANSWER✔✔-The fact that objects are physically

stable and exist even when the objects are not in the child's physical

presence. This enables the child to start using symbols to represent things

in their minds so they can think about them.


Preoperational Stage - ANSWER✔✔-The second stage (2-7) of cognitive

development in which children learn to represent things in their mind.

During this stage students develop the ability to use symbols to represent

objects in the world. Thinking remains egocentric and centered.


Egocentric - ANSWER✔✔-Believing that everyone sees the world as you

do.

, Conservation - ANSWER✔✔-The concept that certain properties of an

object remain the same regardless of changes in other properties.


Centration - ANSWER✔✔-Paying attention to only one aspect of an object

or situation; what is commonly called tunnel vision.


Reversibility - ANSWER✔✔-The ability to perform a mental operation and

then reverse thinking to return to the starting point.


Class Inclusion - ANSWER✔✔-The ability to think simultaneously about a

whole class of objects and about relationships among subordinate classes; a

framework for thinking.


Concrete Operational Stage - ANSWER✔✔-The third stage (7-11) of

cognitive development in which children develop the capacity for logical

reasoning and understanding of conservation but can use skills only in

dealing with familiar situations. New abilities include operations that are

reversible. Thinking is decentered, allowing them to understand that others

may have different perceptions, and problem solving is less restricted by

egocentrism. Abstract thinking is not possible.
