1. 4 stages of human cognitive development: sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational.
ReplyDelete2. Animism: the idea that stuffed animals and toys(inanimate objects) have thoughts and feelings. This relates to the preop. stage because children think unlogically.
3. Major criticism of Piaget's theories are that today modern scientists are discovering that children are developing these ideas at an earlier age. Other theories emerging are that adults and culture may influence how and when the child develops.

1. According to Piaget the childhood plays a vital role to the growth of intelligence and a child learns through doing and actively exploring. He learns by creating a schema, assimilation, accomodation, and cognition.
2. Animism is a characteristic of the Pre-operational stage. This is when a person has the belief that everything that exists has some kind of consciousness.
3. According to abouteducation.com "Much of the criticism of Piaget's work is in regards to his research methods. In addition to this, the other children in Piaget's small research sample were all from well-educated professionals of high socioeconomic status. Because of this unrepresentative sample, it is difficult to generalize his findings to a larger population." Other scientists have come to conclusions about how to teach children and when they should learn what along their learning path.

1. Some facts we didnt know before were: a three year olds brain is twice as active as an adults and around the age of 17 tour brain goes through another major growth spurt.
2.Some ways to stimulate a toddlers brain through early development include having back and fourth conversations, singing, reading, and playing together.
3. Medical and health experts say that both nature and nurture are equally important during a child's development although a person's genome can be swayed depending on what experiences that child goes through from birth.

1. I didnt know that there was a specific order of knowledge learned throughout the early stages in life. I also didnt know that children try to put things into their schemas.
2. To stimulate a toddlers brain, you can provide it with various objects of different textures, smells, tastes, colors, etc. so that it may learn the differences through senses.
3. Parental support and assistance allows children to develop faster. Nature vs. Nurture concepts continue throughout an individual's entire life.

ReplyDeleteJean Piaget's states of development start with life through senses, progresses to language and then logic, and ends with abstract thinking.
Animsm is the belief that nonhuman/non living entities have a spiritual essence
Jean Piaget is criticized because of his unscientific methods, his underestimation of children, and the different social/ethnic groups
I did not know that neurons on our brains are determined by genetics as well as experiences, add also did not know that there are certain periods when the brain (in early development) it's extremely susceptible to environmental factors, known as imprinting periods
Toddlers are most stimulated.by their senses, so what they can see, feel, touch, and put into their mouths
Medical experts believe that 50% of your behavior of bawd ob your genres, but you have the final say of how you act because the other half of your behavior it's based on the environment

ReplyDelete1. Sensorimoter, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational
2. Animism is the belief that everything is "living". It relates to the preoperational stage because the kids lack logic at that stage.
3. Criticisms of his theories is that he underestimated the abilities of young children. Other ideas that have emerged include the idea of nature vs nurture.
1. -The age range of which kids go through the different stages
- That children only really care about themselves
2. Peek a boo, hiding toys, and exposing them to new experiences
3. Different scientists have different opinions but most lean towards nurture.

1. Piaget's theory is that humans go through many stages in their development: senseomotoral, preoperational, concrete observational, and formal operational stage.
2. Animism is where children believe that all objects have a sort of conscious. The preoperational stage is when they don't understand that there are other points of views and believe that everyone shares their view.
3. People critisized that his research methods were biased because he used children that were from high socioeconomic statuses. He also underestimated the children's abilities to learn and believed they were more egotistical than others believe.
1. One interesting fact is that the brain is one of the first organs to develop in a human embryo. Another is that 60% of the human genome is dedicated to brain development.
2. To stimulate a toddlers brain, you can: have a back and forth conversation, sing, read, and play together.
3. Medical professionals believe that both genetics and environment influence a person's actions and decisions.

ReplyDelete1. Children develop in 4 different stages. They are sensorimotor, preoperational, concrere operational, and formal operational.
2. Anamism is the belief that all objects have feelings and things and thus are alive. This is part of this stage when children don't know any better.
3. The criticisms of his ideas are that people don't develop stimuli in stages they develop their whole life. There is also research finding these occurring earlier in life than he stated. There is also evidence that people learn differently based upon their culture and up bringing.
1.an adult has the same amount of synapses as an 8 month old. By age 2 a child has 75% if it's total brain mass.
2.any thing that involves interaction with the child well help then to learn. Taking, singing reading, and playing all help to develop a growing child's brain.
3. There is many opinions on this but most scientists agree that both play an important role in growth. Many are starting to lean towards nurture being the one that had more of an impact in development.

1) Piaget deduced that humans develope their thought processes in stages, learning more and being able to understand more as time goes on
2) Animism is the idea that certain objects or animals can have and show feelings
3) People thought his theories were to simple and in stone. Others believe in a nature vs nurture argument
1. Piaget's theory is that both our genetics and our enviroment begin to affect our development long before we're even born, and they continue to influence our learning until the day we die.
ReplyDelete2. The belief that objects like toys have feelings and it relates because children at this stage have a problem with logic and start to play pretend.
3. Some major criticism are that they found the stages can relate to different ages and that he over simplified the stages. Some people like Lev Vygotsky believe that the mind develops because of parental instruction and social enviroment.
1. 2 Things I don't know is that cells begin to grow rapidly after conception and not all neurons are connected.
2. Parents should talk, sing, and read to their children to help them.
3. Most agree on both and they are very important for children to develop.

1) I didn't know that the brain was fully developed by 6 months, or that the neurons are determined genetically
2) Simple games like peekaboo, hiding things under blankets, and playing with textured objects

1. Piaget's theory on how humans develop cognitively consists of 4 stages ranging from birth to 12 years. His theory begins with the Sensorimotor stage, the time period where infants experience the world through senses and develop and idea of object permanence and often experience stranger anxiety. The Preoperatinal Stage ranges from 2-6 and is largely centered around language development and a child can often develop animism, or a connection to an object. From 7-11, the Concrete Operational Stage thrives when children think logically and learn conservation. The last stage is the Formal Operational Stage from 12 on, humans can then make abstract connections between the real and the hypothetical.
ReplyDelete2. Amisim is the idea that every object has animation or life, even stuffed animals or action figures. This related to the Preoperational Stage because often in this stage a child will become attached to a inanimate object and be convinced it's real.
3. Major critisicm that Piaget recieved was that you couldn't divide stages of development so cleanly and that he underestimated Children's intellect. Other theories include Nature vs. Nurture that also relates to Levygotsky's theory that children develop differently in different cultures
1. The Brain weighs 3 pounds and is one of the first organs to develop in the embryo
2. Peekaboo, hiding toys, and new experiences

Jewel Jones, Period 3
1. The first stage of cognitive development is the sensorimotor stage, the second is the pre-operational stage, the third is the concrete-operational stage and the fourth is the formal operational stage.
ReplyDelete2. Animism is the ability to mentally represent objects and people and their feelings and emotions during the pre-operational stage.
3. Many psychologists disagreed with his theory that people developed in such stages. Vygoskis idea is that early cognitive development occurs through parental instruction and interaction with the social environments.
1. A new born brain weighs 25% of it's adult weight. Most neurons have not yet been given a task and are inactive at birth.
2. Ways to stimulate a to dales brain include having a back and forth conversation, singing, reading, and playing together.
3. Medical and health experts agree that nature and nurture are both important influences in development.

1. There are four pieces that make up Cognitive development which include sensorimotor, pre-operational, concrete-operational, and formal operational stages.
ReplyDelete2. Animism is how people are able to absorb information of objects and understand their feelings/emotions a lot better during the pre-operational stage.
3. Most psychologists did not believe in Piaget theory of the stages happening at certain times in life. Vygoskis says that cognitive development happens at a earlier stage than Piaget predicted.
1. When you fully develop your brain weighs 3lbs. Symbols, singing, and hiding objects can help stimulate brain development.
2. Peekaboo, talking, and discovering new things
3. Nature and Nurture both have a big part in development.

Video questions:
ReplyDelete1. Piaget believed that human development could be broken into 4 stages. Sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational. Each stage, beginning from birth, is a continuation in our gaining of knowledge. This also includes the construction of schemas, assimilation and accommodation by which we attempt to understand the world by identifying objects or things as schemas, and the production of new schemas to fit new objects or organisms.
2. Animism is the way in which small children visualize objects or events in the mind through the use of pictures, words or animation. This relates to the preoperational stage because children in this stage use animism to further their knowledge and understanding of the world around them.
3. Piaget's theory of cognitive of development has been criticized by other psychologists as an oversimplification of development and for being too rigid in its definition of stages by age. Psychologists argue that development cannot be broken into a series of stepping stones, but that development is a continuous process.

1. Periodic pruning of the brain makes the number of synapses in an 18 year old equal to the number of that in an 8 month old baby. One month after conception nerve cells begin multiplying extremely fast and can reach a rate of 250,000 created per minute.
2. To stimulate a toddler's brain an adult may sing, read to them, play with them, or have a conversation with them
3. Many psychologists say that in the case of nature v nurture both are important and many of the genes in a person's genome can be swayed in one way or another based upon experiences we are exposed to since birth.

1.Piaget believed that the childhood plays a vital and active role to growth of intelligence and child learns through doing and actively exploring
2.Pre-operational children are usually 'ego centric', meaning that they are only able to consider things from their own point of view. Animisms are also a characteristic of the Pre-operational stage. This is when a person has the belief that everything that exists has some kind of consciousness.
3.Much of the criticism of Piaget's work is in regards to his research methods."Research has disputed Piaget's argument that all children will automatically move to the next stage of development as they mature. Some data suggests that environmental factors may play a role in the development of formal operations." This is due to the rise in interest of the "nurture vs. nature" question that developed later.
Intrographic questions
1. One fact I found interesting about the developing brain is that babies are actually trying to replicate talking when they see you move your mouth a lot. Another fact I found interesting was that when you play " peek a boo" they actually think you have disappeared behind your hands.
2. Talking, singing, and hiding objects for them to discover are a few great ways to help a child's brain development.
3. Scientists opinions very greatly but the general majority of them believe they both have very important roles in the development of a child's brain.
