Lesson 6
1. Read more about Piaget’s stages of cognitive development and
analyze the implications of teaching students at each stage of
development. Use a matrix in presenting your answers.
Stage Educational Implication
Sensorimotor A focus on methods of children’s thinking and their
understanding in the process they use to solve any answer.
Pre-operational Recognition of crucial role of children’s self- initiated, active
involvement in learning activities.
Concrete
Operational
An emphasis on practices that have been aimed to make
children adult like in their thinking
Formal Operational Acknowledgment and acceptance of individual differences in
the developmental process.
2. Do we all reach the fourth stage – formal operational thinking? Cite
your own personal experiences and acquaintances with people who
may or may not have reached the 4th stage of cognitive
development. What are the factors that may limit formal operational
thinking?
The final stage in Piaget’s developmental framework of children is what is known as
Formal Operational Stage. In this stage, the adolescents acquire the ability to think
abstractly without any dependence of concrete manipulation. Children with down
syndrome often find difficulty in abstract thinking. They do not understand what
they have not expereinced. For instance, they can understand the difference
between leaf and stem of a particular plant only if they see that plant. Factors such
as stunted cogitive growth and learning disabilities limit formal operational thinking
in adolescents.
