strategies, promote engagements, and address?
the diverse needs of learners
- focuses on observable behaviors and the role of
the environment in shaping behavior through

known for his theory of cognitive
development
Jean Piaget
known for his sociocultural theory of
cognitive development
Lev Vygotsky
cognitivists emphasize the role of _______________ processes in learning and knowledge construction
internal mental
- emphasizes the active role of learners in constructing their own understanding of the world

Constructivism
known for his theory of cognitive
development and constructivist approach to learning
