Cognitive Theory
Piaget
- children’s construct personal understanding
- age related stages w distinct thinking and understanding
- child’s cognition in QUALITATIVE different in each stage
4 Stages of Cognitive Theory
- Sensorimotor
- Preoperational
- Concrete
- Formal Operational stage
- Sensorimotor stage (4 Stages of Cognitive Theory)
Brith to ap 2y
Infants construct an understanding of the word by coordinating sensory experiences (5 senses)
- Pre operational (4 Stages of Cognitive Theory)
- able to represent he world w words, images, or drawings
- preschool kidsstilllack ability to perform operations (mental actions)
Ie. colour pics of fams = represent thoughts but don’t rally understand
- Concrete ( 4 Stages of Cognitive Theory)
App 7-11yr

Learned math w this theory.
- cultural and social interaction guide constituted development
- inserable from social and cultural activists
Social interactions w more adults and peers too cognitive development
Information Processing theory
How we take things in, process it and organize it and then use it like a computer.
- develop gradually, increasing capacity for processing information allowing them to acquire increasingly complex knowledge and skills
Behavioural and Social Congitive Theory
Development from behaviours learned through interactions w surroudings. Development is also observable while behaviour is learned through experience w environments
Operant Conditioning
Skinner
Behaviour consequence (reward or punishment ) causes change in the probability of the behaviours recurrence
