Piaget - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔Cognitive constructivist
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


perspective of learning in explaining how children build or
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


construct knowledge of their world |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




-childrens' development must necessarily precede their learning
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


(stages of development) |\ |\




children construct knowledge through interactions with others
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


and through their experience using thought process of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


assimilation and accommodation |\ |\




ex: A child seeing a zebra for the first time and calling it a horse.
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


The child assimilates this information into her schema for a
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


horse.


Piaget: teaching implications - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔support
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


children to explore their world and discover their knowledge
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




Assimilation (piaget) - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔What are the
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


processes that children used to construct knowledge they take
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


new information into existing cognitive structure of score schema
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ex: Assimilation is like adding air into a balloon. You just keep
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


blowing it up. It gets bigger and bigger. For example, a two year
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\

,old's schema of a tree is "green and big with bark" -- over time
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


the child adds information (some trees lose their leaves, some
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


trees have names, we use a tree at Christmas, etc.)
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




Accommodation (piaget) - CORRECT ANSWERS ✔✔The process |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


children used to construct knowledge refers to how children can
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


or will change existing understanding to adopt new knowledge
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


and revise extend or expand their concepts Jones
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




ex: When a child learns the word for dog, they start to call all
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


four-legged animals dogs. This is assimilation. People around |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


them will say, no, that's not a dog, it's a cat. The schema for dog
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


then gets modified to restrict it to only certain four-legged
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


animals. That is accommodation. |\ |\ |\

|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


limited to thinking about concrete objects
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\




the glasses of water the older children would say all you did was
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


pour the same water in the tall glass
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
