PRAXIS II Education of Young
Children (5024): Childhood
Development and Learning
with complete verified
solutions
The process that starts in human infancy and continues into late
adolescent concentrating on gross and fine motor skills as well as
puberty. Involves developing control over the body, particularly
muscles and physical coordination. - answer Physical Development
The construction of thought processes, including remembering,
problem solving, and decision-making, from childhood through
adolescence to adulthood.
Refers to how a person perceives, thinks, and gains an
understanding of his or her world through the interaction of genetic
and learned factors. - answer Cognitive Development
- Information Processing
- Intelligence
- Reasoning
- Language Development
- Memory - answer Areas of Cognitive Development
In this period, which has four sub stages, intelligence is
demonstrated through motor activity without the use of symbols.
Knowledge of the world is limited, but developing, because it is
based on physical interactions and experiences. Children acquire
object permanence (memory). Physical development (mobility)
, allows the child to begin developing new intellectual abilities. Some
symbolic (language) abilities are developed at the end of this stage.
(Related to which of Piaget's Four Stages of Cognitive Development)
- answer Sensorimotor Stage (Infancy)
In this period, which has two substages, intelligence is
demonstrated through the use of symbols, language use matures,
and memory and imagination are developed, but thinking is done in
a non-logical, non-reversible manner. Egocentric thinking
predominates.
(Related to which of Piaget's Four Stages of Cognitive Development)
- answer Pre-Operational Stage (Toddlers and Early Childhood)
In this stage, characterized by seven types of conservation (number,
length, liquid, mass, weight, area, and volume), intelligence is
demonstrated through logical and systematic manipulation of
symbols related to concrete objects. Operational thinking develops
(mental actions that are reversible). Egocentric thought diminishes.
(Related to which of Piaget's Four Stages of Cognitive Development)
- answer Concrete Operational Stage (Elementary and Early
Adolescence)
In this stage, intelligence is demonstrated through the logical use of
symbols related to abstract concepts. Early in the period there is a
return to egocentric thought.
(Related to which of Piaget's Four Stages of Cognitive Development)
- answer Formal Operational Stage (Adolescence and Adulthood)
Newborn: Infants begin learning to use their senses to explore the
world around them. Can focus on and follow moving objects,
