Organization

Adaptation

Assimilation Accomodation

The Stage of Cognitive Development

The formal operational stage[ 11 years onward]

The concrete operational stage

[ 6-11 years]

The preoperational stage

[ 2-6 years]

The Sensory-motor stage

[ 0-2 years]

Six stages of Sensory-motor development

(0-2 years)Stage 1 (0-1 months)

Unchanged reflexes (e.g. the sneeze) Disappear reflexes ( e.g. the Moro response) Changes after constant exercise and repeated application to external objects and events (e.g. sucking, movement of the hand and arm)

Reflexes

Six stages of Sensory-motor development

(0-2 years)

Coordination of sensory input and motor responses Development of object permanence Little or no capacity for symbolic representation

Six stages of Sensory-motor development

(0-2 years)Stage 2 (1-4 months)

Stage 3 (4-8 months)

The continued evolution of individual sensory –motor schemes The gradual coordinaion or integration of one schema with another Quasiimitative or preimitative Operant conditioning The beginnings of genuine imitation

Six stages of Sensory-motor development

(0-2 years)Stage 4 (8-12 months)

Stage 5 (12-18 months)

The child intentionally exercises one schemes, as means, in order to make possible the exercise of another scheme as end or goal The child can read sign of impending events that are not directly connected with his own behavior

Very active, purposeful, trial and error exploration of the real properties and potentialities of object Child would be likely to vary the means scheme in a deliberate Accurate imitator

Six stages of Sensory-motor development

(0-2 years)Stage 6 (18-24 months)

Child shows a beginning capacity to produce and comprehend one thing (e.g. A word) as standing for or symbolically representing some other thing The child is now capable of deferred imitation Pretend or symbolic play makes its first appearance in stage 6 and continues to develop during the preschool years

The Preoperational Stage(2-6 years)

Development of symbolic thought Classification ability Irreversible, Egocentric thinking Failure to show conservation ability

The Concrete Operational Stage(6-11 years)

Conservation ability Reversibility ability

The Formal Operational Stage(11 years through adulthood)

Mental operations applied to abstractions Development of logical and systematic thinking
