CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -In Piaget’s view, the purpose of intelligence was to help humans adapt to the environment. In the process of adaptation, cognitive structures changed through the process of assimilation and accommodation. Assimilation referred to interpretation of events according to existing cognitive structures/schema.

Detailed explanation-2: -According to Piaget, the learning process involves the following: Assimilation: Attempting to interpret new information within the framework of existing knowledge. Accommodation: Making small changes to that knowledge in order to cope with things that don’t fit those existing frameworks.

Detailed explanation-3: -The four stages given by Piaget are: (1) the sensorimotor stage from birth to 2 years, (2) the preoperational stage from 2 to 7 years, (3) the concrete-operational stage from 7 to 12 years, and (4) the stage of formal operations that characterizes the adolescent and the adult.

Detailed explanation-4: -The sensorimotor stage is the first stage of your child’s life, according to Jean Piaget’s theory of child development. It begins at birth and lasts through age 2. During this period, your little one learns about the world by using their senses to interact with their surroundings.
