Evaluation on two theories of cognitive development This essay I will look at the similarity and the differences between Piaget’s and Vygotsky’s theories in explanation of child cognitive development. Particularly it will describe their theories on the importance of social interactions in influencing development. I will give a brief overview of the four stages of Piaget’s theories.

for Alfred Binet‚ and refining Burt’s reasoning test. During his time working at Binet’s lab‚ he studied the way that children reasoned. After two years of working with children‚ Piaget finally realised what he wanted to investigate – children’s development!

I will apply Vygotsky’s theory of development to make changes to my current curriculum.

When kids are younger this interaction is between their families and the people close to them‚ but as they
