of social or emotional aspects. Piaget believed that a child’s cognitive development happens in stages and that children flow through the stages naturally. The first stage being the sensorimotor stage‚ which he stated occurs from birth to two years in a child. During this stage the child is trying to make sense of the world‚ they use their skills and abilities that they are born with to learn more about the environment e.g. looking grasping and listening. Piaget created sub- stages in the sensorimotor

For Piaget‚ children build knowledge based on their personal interpretation of the world at the different stages of their life that range from infancy‚ childhood and adolescence.

theory. Piaget suggested that there were four major cognitive stages in logical development‚ corresponding to four successive forms of knowledge. During each of these stages‚ children were hypothesized to think and reason in a different way. These stages‚ and their approximate ages of occurrence‚ were: the sensory-motor period (0-2 years)‚ the period of pre-operations (2-7 years)‚ the period of concrete operations (7-11 years) and the period of formal operations (11-12 years on).

three theorists’ thoughts on this matter. One of the most well-known early childhood theorists is‚ Jean Piaget with his theory of cognitive development. Next is Howard Gardner who first took his theory from Piaget’s basis but developed it further into the theory of multiple intelligences. The final theorist to be covered is Lev Vygotsky and his theory of language development. Jean Piaget worked with Alfred Binet in an experimental laboratory on intelligence tests; through this experience‚ he

Both theorists have similarities and differences when it comes to their views on cognitive development. We will first begin with the views of the two on the nature or development of intelligence. Piaget believed that children are naturally born with the ability to both interact with and make sense of their environment. Children as well as

Through their exploring and thinking students are taking on an active role in their learning and knowledge building. According to Castronova (n.d)‚ “Piaget was the first to show that children were not “empty vessels” to be filled with knowledge‚ but active builders of knowledge.” With our current access to so much on the internet and through technology‚ there are many more opportunities for teachers

According to Piaget‚ children actively seek out information and adapt it to the knowledge and conceptions of the world that they already have. Piaget thinks that his stages represent broad ways of thinking. Piaget described four distinct periods of cognitive development (sensorimotor intelligence‚ preoperational thought‚ concrete operations‚ and formal operations). The sensorimotor intelligence period begins at birth and ends at about 24 months. Piaget called it sensorimotor intelligence because
