Piaget
Jean Piaget was a Swiss psychologist known as the father of developmental psychology. He is best known for his theory of cognitive development, which proposes that children develop cognitive skills in four stages:1. <strong>Sensorimotor stage</strong> (0-2 years): Children learn by combining sensory information with motor activities, such as object permanence and problem-solving.2. <strong>Preoperational stage</strong> (2-7 years): Children engage in symbolic thinking and begin to form mental representations of the world around them, but still struggle with logical reasoning.3. <strong>Concrete operational stage</strong> (7-11 years): Children develop the ability to think logically and understand cause-and-effect relationships, but only in concrete contexts.4. <strong>Formal operational stage</strong> (11-12 years and up): Children develop the ability to think abstractly and reason logically, even in the absence of concrete context.Piaget's theory emphasizes the active, constructive nature of the learning process and highlights the importance of hands-on experience and self-directed learning. His work has had a significant influence on education, child psychology, and cognitive science.
