Document Summary
Hss4102 lecture 9 child development theory. Announcements: the midterm is based on the contend of the classes and the complementary readings, this week the discussion board has started. It is here that the teacher must focus attention: social context influences more than social norms and beliefs. Video: piaget"s developmental theory: an overview (davidson films, incl: sensorimotor period (1-2 years, no object permanence, pre-operational stage (2-6 years) symbolic function, no reversibility, egocentric, concrete operational (6-12 years, formal operations (12 years and so on) Discussion about videos: for piaget it really has to do with stages of development, while vygoysky didn"t deal with different stages in his theory, vygosky had the chance to read only one book of piaget. Then it was the basis for vygosky"s theory, but this first book of piaget wasn"t about stages of development yet: both researchers see children as active individuals.
