|
Describe Piaget's sensorimotor stage.
|
Birth - 2 years
- infant differentiates himself from objects - gradually becomes aware of realtionship between his actions and their effects on the environment --> can act intentionally and make interesting events last longer e.g. if he shakes a rattle it will make a noise) - learns that objects continue to exist even though no longer visible (object performance) |
|
Describe Piaget's preoperation stage.
|
2-7 years
- uses language and can represent objects by images and words - still egocentric (the world revolved around him and has difficulty taking the viewpoint of others) - classifies objects by single salient features (if A is like B in one respect, must be like B in all other respects) - toward the end of this stage begins to use numbers and develop conservation concepts |
|
Describe Piaget's concrete operational stage.
|
7-12 years
Becomes capable of logical thought: - achieves conservation concepts in this order: number (age 6), mass (age 7), weight (age 9) - can classify objects, order them in series along a dimension (such as size), and understand relational items (A is longer than B) |
|
Describe Piaget's formal operational stage.
|
12 years and up
- Can think in abstract terms, follow logial propositions, and reason by hypothesis - isolates the elements of a problem and systematially explores all possible solutions - becomes concerned with the hypothetical, the future and ideological problems |
