Piaget based his theory around cognitive development and states that the needs of the whole child must satisfied. He focuses on studies of mental processes which include how people perceive, think, learn and remember. He focused on the constructive perspective, in which, he sees learning as a construction (Dahl, 1996, P.2). Piaget saw children as little scientists and he stated that an active child requires knowledge through self-evaluation and they use what they have previously learnt to form…

A daily activity done by almost every human being in the world requires using several aspects of your brain. Your brain is what helps you complete the simple and over-used action which is called, driving. Driving takes proper training and tests before being able to safely drive on your own. It comes with practice and theory learning. Nevertheless, your brain is helping you in every way possible. There are at least seven brain structures/regions/lobes that are used while driving. The list…

In this article I will be applying Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development to mathematic instruction. Piaget’s introduce the learning process through different stages of cognitive development such as Sensorimotor Stage, Preoperational Stage, Concrete Operations Stage, and the Formal Operations Stage. The Sensorimotor Stage is the stage an infant’s mental and cognitive attributes develop from birth until the appearance of language. In this stage the child will become able to find objects even…

Our brain tells us what to feel. It can protect us from danger and also allows us to think. The 3 parts of the coping brain are as follows: 1. Reptilian Coping Brain- This part of the brain is the oldest and possibly the most important part. It includes our instincts and is shared among all reptiles and mammals. Fear, aggression and out survival instincts are a part of this part and therefore without it we would not be here. 2. Emotional Coping Brain- This part of the brain allows for…

learning environment, so long as the subject is interesting and have potential application. My personal areas of weakness in being a self-motivated and engaged student are as follows: Firstly I have seldom had to do any work at school since my intelligence means that I grasped concepts very quickly and was able to achieve a passing mark without any effort, this means that my self-motivation quickly slips when the subject is one in which I have no interest. In this case I will usually do just…

individual, obtaining many honors and titles in the science community. Einstein truly represents something that many of us long for, success. As a society, we often praise him and others who seemed to have been gifted with the desirable gift of intelligence. We refer to them as being “geniuses” as they seem to have a natural ability to solve any academic problem in their area of expertise. However, individuals that lay on the other side of the spectrum those so called “mentally disabled” are…

Learning can be interpreted in many ways to different individuals, although to me learning is about gaining knowledge and embracing every experience encountered and linking it to any task. Also I would explain that being open minded is a strong attribute to apply during the learning process. During my week one I stated that learning is to open and broaden an individual’s mind on subjects to gain knowledge or skills, and I’ve grown to realize its more than that. People can learn using different…

A Learning theory is a framework describing how information is processed and absorbed by our minds. Behavioural, personal and environmental factors, as well as previous experiences, all play a part in our understanding. They explain how different factors can help learners process and recall information, suggesting that as we learn we also change the way we perceive our surroundings and the way we interact with others. A definition by Kimble (1961) is that “Learning refers to a more or less…

Mindset Growth mindset is the belief that you can improve upon your abilities through practice and effort, as opposed to a fixed mindset in which one believes their abilities are unchangeable (Dweck, 2006). Students with fixed mindset believe intelligence is static and tend to desire looking smart, therefore they avoid challenges, give up easily, see effort as fruitless, ignore useful feedback, and are threatened by others’ success. Students with a fixed mindset report feeling dumb when they…

Story of Success, suggests that there are other factors affects a person 's identity. Gladwell rejects Chua 's idea of strict parenting and forced practice, and he proposes that there are other factors such as life circumstances and practicing intelligence which are necessary for individual success. Gladwell discusses that a person should practice what he loves not what he is forced to do while Amy Chua claims that practice must be forced and parents should be strict and in full control.…
