In your own words, explain how knowledge of Piaget’s four stages of intelligence might inform your thinking about children and your future work with children and families.
- Explain Lev Vygotsky’s theory of the Zone of Proximal Development and how knowledge of this theory might inform your future work with children.
- Using examples from this week’s Learning Resources, explain how your views are similar to or different from those of one of the psychologists studied this week.
