Deweys Application Of
Scientific Method
Learner is involve in genuine
experience.

Acquires information to solve the
problem.
Draw tentative solutions that may
solve the problem.
Test the solution construct their
knowledge
Knowledge is
not an inert info
but an
instrument to
solve problem.
Education.. is that
reconstruction and
reorganization of
experience and
increase ability to
direct the course
of subsequent
experience

JEAN PIAGET
Cognition unfolds in a
sequence of four
stages.
Each is age-related
and distinctive
Each stage is
discontinuous from
and more advanced
than the previous
Piagets Sensorimotor
Stage
Coordination of sensory
experiences with motor
actions
Object permanence involves the
realization that objects continue to
exist over time
Limitations:
Egocentrism: The inability to distinguish
between ones own perspective and someone
elses perspective.
Lack of Conservation
Classification: ability to classify objects according
to only one characteristic at a time
Conservation of Liquid
Classification:
Seriation:
Transitivity:
characteristics of an object
stay the same even though the
object might change in
appearance.
Coordinate several
characteristics rather than
focus on a single property of
an object.
Order stimuli along some
quantitative dimension.
Combine relations to
understand certain
conclusions.
Hierarchical Classification
When shown a
family tree of four
generations, the
concrete
operational
child can classify
the members
vertically,
horizontally,
and obliquely.
Hypothetical-deductive reasoning:
ability to develop hypotheses about ways to
solve problems and systematically reach a
conclusion
