Bruner and Piaget
BRUNER AGREES WITH PIAGET
1. Children are PRE-ADAPTED to learning
2. Children have a NATURAL CURIOSITY
3. Children’s COGNITIVE STRUCTURES develop over time
4. Children are ACTIVE participants in the learning process
5. Cognitive development entails the acquisition of SYMBOLS
BRUNER DISAGREES WITH PIAGET
BRUNER AGREES WITH PIAGET BRUNER DISAGREES WITH PIAGET
1. Development is a CONTINUOUS PROCESS – not a series of stages
2. The development of LANGUAGE is a cause not a consequence of cognitive development
3. You can SPEED-UP cognitive development. You don’t have to wait for the child to be ready
4. The involvement of ADULTS and MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE PEERS makes a big difference
5. Symbolic thought does NOT REPLACE EARLIER MODES OF REPRESENTATION

Three Basic Components To Piaget's Cognitive Theory:
sensorimotor
preoperational
concrete operational
Four mediational processes proposed by Bandura:
1. Attention:
2. Retention:
3. Reproduction:
4. Motivation:
Maslow's original hierarchy of needs five-stage model includes:
1. Physiological needs - these are biological requirements for human survival, e.g. air, food,
drink, shelter, clothing, warmth, sex, sleep.
If these needs are not satisfied the human body cannot function optimally. Maslow considered
physiological needs the most important as all the other needs become secondary until these
needs are met.
2. Safety needs - protection from elements, security, order, law, stability, freedom from fear.
3. Love and belongingness needs - after physiological and safety needs have been fulfilled,
the third level of human needs is social and involves feelings of belongingness. The need for
interpersonal relationships motivates behavior
Examples include friendship, intimacy, trust, and acceptance, receiving and giving affection
and love. Affiliating, being part of a group (family, friends, work).
4. Esteem needs - which Maslow classified into two categories: (i) esteem for oneself
(dignity, achievement, mastery, independence) and (ii) the desire for reputation or respect
from others (e.g., status, prestige).
Maslow indicated that the need for respect or reputation is most important for children and
adolescents and precedes real self-esteem or dignity.
5. Self-actualization needs - realizing personal potential, self-fulfillment, seeking personal
growth and peak experiences. A desire “to become everything one is capable of
becoming”
