WEEK: 7
Introduction
Discussion
From Piaget’s findings and comprehensive theory, we can derive the following principles:
1. Children will provide different explanations of reality at different stages of cognitive development.
2. Cognitive development is facilitated by providing activities or situations that engage learners and
require adaptation (assimilation and accommodation).
3. Learning materials and activities should involve the appropriate level of motor or mental operations for
a child of given age; avoid asking students to perform tasks that are beyond their current cognitive
capabilities.
4. Use teaching methods that are actively involve students and present challenges.
