Jean Piaget
Jean Piaget (1896-1980) was a Swiss psychologist who developed
a comprehensive theory of cognitive development from birth to
maturity. His theory focused on four stages of development (called
Schema): the sensorimotor stage (ages 0-2), the preoperational stage (ages 2-7),
the concrete operational stage (ages 7-11), and the formal operational stage
(ages 11+). In the simplest terms, these four stages describe how a child
learns at various points of development. The sensorimotor stage involves learning
through motor actions, the preoperational stage is based on natural intelligence,
the concrete operational stage is (as it sounds) based on concrete evidence, and
the formal operational stage is based on the ability to think abstractly.
Application
Piaget's theories focus on environmental
experiences. The educator's role involves "the
shaping of actual experience by environing
conditions". Educators should incorporate new
experiences with existing ones.
Accommodation of a child's environment to
help develop new cognitive structures.
Lev Vygotsky
Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934) was a Russian psychologist and
founder of cultural-historical psychology. He died of Tuberculosis
at the age of 37, leaving many of his notes and theories unfinished.
Vygotskys theories and notes did not become well known until the 1970s and
many of his notes are still untranslated from his native Russian.
Vygotsky developed a learning theory that supports constuctivism and the role of
the instructor as a facilitator of learning. He is known for his proposed Zone of
Proximal Development which basically states new knowledge is built on top of
previous experience and knowledge. I
Behaviorism
considers all students
to each be a vessel to
be filled with
knowledge than can
later be poured out.

Uses
Cognitivism is useful when
the knowledge to be
learned includes processes
that are ambiguous or open
to interpretation and
customization:
- How to create a
marketing plan
- How to design a game
Piaget Lessons
Although, not lessons, these videos show some of the important concepts in
each of Piagets stages of development.
Piaget - Stage 1 - Sensorimotor, Object Permanence
Piaget - Stage 2 - Preoperational - Lack of Conservation
Piaget - Stage 3 - Concrete - Reversibility
Piaget - Stage 4 - Formal - Deductive Reasoning
Vygotsky Lesson
Lesson
Two-digit addition with regrouping
Lesson Purpose:
A second grade teacher is preparing to teach a scaffolded math lesson on regrouping in
addition. His objective is to teach students the concept of regrouping across place value;
students have all mastered multiple digit addition without regrouping.
