CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Heuristic: a simple thinking strategy that often allows us to make judgments and solve problems efficiently; usually speedier but also more error-prone than algorithms. Insight: a sudden and often novel realization of the solution to a problem; it contrasts with strategy-based solutions.

Detailed explanation-2: -*Belief Bias-the tendency for one’s preexisting beliefs to distort logical reasoning sometimes by making invalid conclusions seem valid or valid conclusions seem invalid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heuristics can be mental shortcuts that ease the cognitive load of making a decision. Examples that employ heuristics include using trial and error, a rule of thumb or an educated guess.

Detailed explanation-4: -The quick-acting, automatic source of ideas we use instead of careful reasoning is known as intuition. Using intuition to make a decision has some downsides, as we’ll soon see, but it also has some benefits.
