24
Q

Is the first of the four stages in cognitive development which extends from birth to the acquisition of language

A

Sensori motor stage

25
Covers from about 2 to 7 years old, roughly corresponding to the preschool years
Pre-operational stage
26
During the stage the child learns to use and to represent objects by images words and drawings The child is able to form stable concepts as well as mental listening and magical beliefs
Pre-operational stage
27
This is the ability to represent objects and events a symbol is the thing that represent something else
Symbolic function
28
This is the ability of a child to only see his point of view and to assume that everyone also has his same point of view
Egocentrism
29
This refers to the tendency of the child to only focus on the one aspect of a thing or event and exclude other aspects
Centration
30
The pre-operational children still has the inability to reverse their thinking
Reversibility
31
This is the tendency of the children to attribute human like traits or characteristics to inanimate objects
Animism
32
This refers to the pre-operational child's type of reasoning that is neither inductive or deductive reasoning appears to before from particular to a particular
Transductive reasoning
33
This stage which follows the pre-operational stage occurs between the ages of seven and 11 years and is characterized by the appropriate use of logic
Concrete operational stage
34
Where the child takes into account multiple aspects of a problem to solve it
Decentering
35
The child understands that numbers are objects can be changed then returned to their original state
Reversibility
36
Understanding that quantity lens or number of items is unrelatable to the arrangement or appearance of the object or items
Conservation
37
The ability to sort of objects in an order according to size shape or any other characteristic
Seration
38
Intelligence is demonstrated through the logical use of symbols related to abstract concepts
Formal operational stage
39
This is the ability to come up with different hypothesis about a problem and to gather and weight data in order to make a final decision or judgment
Hypothetical reasoning
40
This is the ability to perceive the relationship in one instant and then use the relationship to narrow down possible answer in another similar situation or problem
Analogical reasoning
41
This is the ability to think logically by applying a general rule to a particular instance or situation
Deductive reasoning
42
Refers to a theory describing the different ways students learn and acquire information. This multiples intelligence range from the use of words number pictures and music to the importance of social interaction introspection physical movement and being in tuned with nature
Multiple intelligences
43
The first step in boundaries model is a necessary condition for any learning to occur
The attentional phase
44
The second step involves the storage and retrieval of what was observed
Retention phase
45
Third is during which the learner copies the observed behavior mental rehearsal immediate enactment and corrective feedback strengthen the reproduction of behavior
The reproduction phase
46
The fourth step is in which focuses on whether the learner is motivated to perform
The motivational phase
47
The art and science of helping children to learn
