jean piaget’s four stages of cognitive development
sensorimotor (birth-2)
pre-operational (2-7)
concrete operational (7-12)
formal operation (12- older)
babies use their senses and their motor behaviors rather than their thinking to learn about their world.
sensorimotor (birth-2)
is the realization that an object (or person) continues to be present even if it is already absent.
object permanence
children at this stage use symbols like words to represent people and objects. they can also imitate actions and learn how to do numbers and understand relationships between two events (children are egocentric at this stage. they don’t consider the point of view of others)
pre-operational (2-7)
at this point, they can put themselves in the shoes of others (empathy) and can make moral judgement.they begin to use logic regarding tangible or concrete objects or happening
concrete operation (7-12)
children at this point can think life scientist. they can already solve problems through logical reasoning, even theoretically and abstractly. they consider all available data before they conclude.
formal operation (12-older)
