1 JEAN PIAGET Intellectual Theorist

2 A CHILD THINKS IN STAGES  Sensorimotor stage  Preoperational stage  Concrete operations stage  Formal operations stage

3 CHECK THIS OUT…  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yhXjJVFA14 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yhXjJVFA14 A quick view of Piaget’s theory in action.

4 PIAGET’S STAGES:

5 SENSORIMOTOR  First stage - from birth to two years  Primary circular reactions (1-4 months) Sucking thumb, blowing bubbles  Secondary circular reactions (4-12 months) Squeezing rubber duck, making interesting things last  Tertiary circular reaction(12-24 months) Hit drum with stick, throwing spoons, dishes, and food

6 SENSORIMOTOR Uses senses and motor abilities to understand world Functions with the present Has no mental images Learn through repetitive actions Accomplish directed behavior

7 Positive: Ex. If a baby kicks a crib and the mobil overhead moves, he kicks again and it moves again. Learn by doing and procedures Negative: Ex. Hide a baby’s toy under a blanket and the children will look for it momentarily but then give up. Two months later he will look for the toy more determined After the first time, child will make a habit of looking in the same spot http://www.dreamstime.com/royalty-free-stock-image-ethnic-baby-boy-with- toy-lying-under-blanket-image5322806

8 PREOPERATIONAL  Second Stage - Two to seven years old  Mental representations and symbols Drawing or written word, understand what it’s representing  Clear understanding of past and future Know if their mom is coming home, tend to stop crying  Child sees things from their point of view Hold up a picture that only they can see, expecting you to see it

9 Negative: Children at this age cannot reason with their parents feelings and only reasoned from what they knew. Positive older people set good examples for children and teach them good examples Language development!

10 CONCRETE  Third Stage - Seven to eleven years old  Logic Operations / principals Solving problems, manipulating symbols  Progressive decentering Develop the ability to conserve a number, length  Hard time applying new-found logic abilities Simple lesson about judging is too abstract and hypothetical

11 Positive Logical thinking developed about objects and events Children aren’t as self centered Aware of rules Negative Children can become too independent and defy their adult authority figures http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/dont-delay/200903/parenting- style-and-procrastination

12 FORMAL  Fourth and final stage - From 12 on  Increasingly competent about adult-style thinking Using logical operations, abstract rather than concrete Hypothetical thinking  Investigate problem carefully and systematically  Not everyone gets to it as successfully as others  Don’t operate it at all times

13 Positive Most progress in development occurs (big change) Reading/new ideas to enhance creativity Negative Children begin to face the problems that teenagers experience May not handle pressure/stress well http://www.lifework.co.nz/mothers-raising- boys http://www.australispavestone.com.au/documents/ why_australis.html

15 PIAGET ON PIAGET – SOME TUTORIAL VIDEOS  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw33CBsEmR4&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw33CBsEmR4&feature=related Overview of Piaget  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1JWr4G8YLM&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1JWr4G8YLM&feature=related Piaget Part 1  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb4TPj1pxzQ&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qb4TPj1pxzQ&feature=relmfu Piaget Part 2  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9nSC_Xgabc&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9nSC_Xgabc&feature=relmfu Piaget Part 3  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVSaEHhOEZY&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVSaEHhOEZY&feature=relmfu Piaget Part 4

16 OBSERVATIONS  Children don’t think like grown-ups  Children are constantly creating and testing their own theories Moon and sun follow you around, big things float and small things sink  All children make similar errors  Don’t know enough/have enough life experience to understand the same explanation that adults do

17 Don’t forget: You can copy- paste this slide into other presentations, and move or resize the poll.

18 DEFEND YOUR ANSWER  Sensorimotor  Preoperational  Concrete Operational  Formal Operational

19 CONCLUSION  “Of how much happened in children’s lives before they even started to talk and one of the main themes in all his work since then has been that intelligence can only grow through actual physical as well as mental engagement with the environment” ~ about Jean Piaget
