He was one of four children born to Alfred Kohlberg and Charlotte Albrecht. Alfred was a silk merchant and Charlotte was a…

One of the key ideas of Vygotsky 's theory is the zone of proximal development. This is the…

How children development cognitively or how thinking develops in children is one of the subjects that Piaget study. He came up with a theory of cognitive development that stated that there are four key milestones in cognitive developments which he divided into four stages. In each stage there is different actions that children develop and until a person develops these skills, they are stuck in this stage according to Piaget. The four stages are sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational,…

Despite being flawed, Piaget made exceptional contributions to the outlook we have on sensorimotor stages. He outdid those of his time, as most brilliant people who make history do, and his research paved an outline for others to do additional research on. Without the fundamentals of Piaget’s theories we may not have built upon the knowledge of these stages quite as quickly nor as proficiently. The stages of development Piaget recognized led to progression in the way we educate children, and led…
