Module 1 Activity 8 – Piaget’s theory of cognitive development



 After the activity:


What I think I can apply to my teaching based on Piaget’s ideas:


·                  Observe the learning behaviours of the learners, and structure teaching according to the experiences and interests of the learners.

·         Use anecdotal record to assess learner’s development and focus on what they can do at each stage of development.

·         Allow my learners to demonstrate their learning achievements and competence in whatever manner most appropriate (suitable) to their abilities.

·         Incorporate more discovery learning – give students the opportunity to initiate plans for projects or activities, let them implement their plans by working in learning centers and with classmates and me (teacher) to review what they have done.
Since knowledge is gained through interaction with others, group students into mixed ability groups instead of homogeneous so that they can learn from each other.
