3.Piaget's assimilation talks about how children deal with new experiences based on how they already act and think. An example would be a child yanking on moms hair to get attention every time. In accommodation children change their way of thinking and behaving because the way they act now no longer works. An example of accommodation would be the mother putting her hair up so the child doesn't grab it and the child having to communicate a different…

By seven months time, a child has gained knowledge about permanency, the knowledge that an object still exist but not in the view of the infant. During this stage, the child adapts to various chains of simple activities to a wider range of situations of lengthy co-ordinates. They soon realize how in control they are with a particular object which allows them to manipulate and develop intellectual abilities. As they gain virtual abilities, they start to learn the appropriate actions and begin to communicate with others through sounds and simple words. Most children at this stage learn from their care-givers as well as their parents as they imitate the infant’s actions, movements, and sounds made by mouth.…
According to Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development, a 3 year old child is beginning the of the pre-operational period (2-7 years old), while a 9 year old is in the middle of the concrete operation period (7-11 years old) and both have very different thinking pattern.…
Piaget theory was about how early cognitive development happens through a process where actions prompt thought processes. He had belief that cognitive development follows a process of four stages that are the same for all children, but can reach that stage at different times. First stage is Sensori-Motor: Birth to 2 years old. In this stage, children are learning about the world around them through their senses. The second stage is the Preoperational Stage: 2 – 7 years old. In this stage, children sees their world as it is. Piaget’s third stage is the Concrete Operational Stage: 7 – 11 years old. Children at this stage are not yet able to think in complex thoughts, but are starting to mentally solve problems, with concepts such as numbers,…
When it comes to the educational reflections of his theory, Piaget sees the child as “continually interacting with the world around him/her solving problems that are presented by the environment” and learning occurs through taking action to solve the problems. Moreover, the knowledge that results from these actions is not imitated or from birth, but “actively constructed” by the child. In this way thought is seen as deriving from action; action is internalized, or carried out mentally in the imagination, and in this way thinking develops. For Piaget, action should be praised as fundamental to cognitive development, and development is the result of two ways, which are assimilation and accommodation. When the action occurs without causing any…
Jean Piaget was a noteworthy man who had an effect on the studies of psychology. Ahead of both preparing and mind investigating the theories he had about the mind itself and the type of structures it carried based upon ages. Although through his profession, Piaget made many commitments that dealt with his work and theories. Discussing the most relevant issues or debates that dealt with Jean and his contributions, model associations, theoretical concepts and the relevance of the models of the modern day. An unforeseen approach of the Piaget studies based upon the cognitive development focuses on the hypotheses of kid’s development skills and the way they think depending on their…
In Piaget theory on child development the three stages of development that we go through that starts from infancy are Sensorimotor, preoperational, and concrete operational. Gonzalez-Mena, Janet (2014) states that according to Jean Piaget theory children construct knowledge and develop their reasoning abilities through interactions with people and the environment as they seek to understand the world and how it works…
According to” Piaget theory”, cognitive development involves a change in cognitive process and abilities. The cognitive level of these I observed was preoperational stage to operational stage. At the preoperational stage happen from age 2-7 year olds, in this stage, kids learn through pretend paly but still struggle with logic and taking other people opinion. They also often struggle with understanding the ideal of constancy. The operational stage happen from age 7-11, in this stage individual are able to logically use symbols related to abstract concepts, such as time ,space, and quantity are understood and can be applied. The higher stage I observed was formal operation stage, these students have more knowledge than the preparation stage…

The War of 1812 was finally over, Britain and America had signed the treaty of Ghent to end this long and taxing war. Yet for many of the soldiers, far in the southwest, the war was about to take an astounding turn. The Treaty of Ghent was signed on December 24, 1814, but the news of it did not reach either the British or the American troops in the Louisiana southwest. General Major Andrew Jackson had the entire battle thought and planned out, it was all ready for action, and the soldiers all waited. A few days earlier the British and American forces had engaged in a battle about nine miles away from New Orleans. This was only a part of the plan in order to draw the British forces to Chalmette Plantation. The Battle of New Orleans was an important battle of the War of 1812, because it showed that America was a legitimate military force through easily defeating the British forces, propelling Andrew…
