• The sensorimotor stage is the first stage of Piaget's theory, during which infants learn about the world through their senses and motor actions.
• The preoperational stage spans from ages 2 to 7, and involves the development of mental representations through the use of symbols and the emergence of propositional thought.
• Piaget believed that children progress through four stages of cognitive development: sensorimotor (birth to age 2), preoperational (ages 2-7), concrete operational (ages 7-11), and formal operational (adolescence onward).
• During the sensorimotor stage, babies explore objects using all five senses and begin to understand cause and effect relationships.
• In the preoperational stage, children develop language skills but still have difficulty with logical thinking and understanding other people's perspectives.
• Piaget believed that children are egocentric until they reach the concrete operational stage at approximately seven years old.
• Piaget proposed four stages of cognitive development: Sensorimotor (birth-2 years), Preoperational (ages 2-6/7), Concrete Operational (ages 7-11), and Formal Operational (adolescence).
• Piaget believed that children are egocentric until they reach the concrete operational stage at approximately seven years old.
• Sensorimotor Stage - Birth to Age 2
• Piaget's theory suggests that cognitive development occurs through stages, with infants progressing from sensorimotor intelligence to preoperational thought and eventually formal operations.
• In Piaget's theory, children progress through different stages of cognitive development as they gain new skills and knowledge.
• Preoperational thought involves symbolic representation of reality through language and imagination but lacks logic and conservation.
• Piaget believed that cognitive development occurs through assimilation (incorporating new information into existing knowledge) and accommodation (changing one's understanding of the world).
• Piaget proposed four stages of cognitive development: sensorimotor (birth-2 years), preoperational (ages 2-7), concrete operational (ages 7-11), and formal operational (adolescence).
• Operational Stage - Ages 11 to Adulthood
• Preoperational Stage - Ages 2 to 7
• The first stage is called the Sensorimotor Stage, during which babies acquire basic motor skills and begin to understand cause and effect relationships.
• The Preoperational stage is characterized by the emergence of symbolic play, egocentrism, and the use of language.
• Operational Stage - Ages 7 to 11
• The first stage is called the Sensorimotor Stage (birth-2 years) where babies use their senses and motor abilities to explore the environment.
• Concrete operational stage is characterized by logical thinking about concrete objects or events but not abstract concepts.
• Concrete operational stage is characterized by logical thinking based on real experiences and objects.
• The first stage is called the Sensorimotor Stage, where babies acquire basic motor abilities such as reaching, grasping, and crawling.
• Preoperational Stage (ages 2-7): Children begin to think symbolically but are not yet able to reason logically or consider multiple perspectives at once.
• The stage of concrete operations is characterized by logical reasoning based on direct experience with objects and events.
• Concrete Operational Stage (ages 7-11): Children can perform basic logical reasoning tasks involving concrete objects but still struggle with abstract concepts.
• Formal Operational Stage - Ages 15 to Adulthood
• The formal operational stage begins at puberty and allows individuals to think abstractly and hypothetically.
• During this stage, babies begin to grasp objects, imitate actions, and experiment with cause-and-effect relationships.
• The first stage is called the sensorimotor period (birth to age two) where infants rely solely on their senses and motor skills to explore and understand the world around them.
