HD FS 229 Lecture Notes - Lecture 11: Apache Hadoop, Abstraction
Document Summary
Children are active participants in their learning: exploration important to understand world. Construct their knowledge: building their schemas, need active cognition, active engagement environment. Stages are invariant: children need to go through stages in sequence. Stages are universal: all children go through all four stages, other culture studies say babies end in stage 3. Piaget wrong: individual differences in rate (stages) Maturation: children will indicate when ready to learn/move to next level of learning, adults should never push child to learn next level before child shows readiness. Organized way of making sense of experience: variety of forms, shift from motor-based to mentally based. Constantly move bodies a lot: ex: kicking schema. Sit in high place and drop everything: mental representations. Anything that is not a mental image. Examples: experimental concept of food, caregiver, near vs. far, hot vs. cold. Adaptation: process of learning, assimilation (use during equilibrium) Fit it in to a schema you already possess.
