1. The document discusses cognitive development in early childhood based on the theories of Piaget and Vygotsky. It covers topics like preoperational thinking, theory of mind, language development including vocabulary and grammar, and different approaches to early childhood education.
2. According to Piaget, children ages 2-6 think symbolically but cannot do logical or operational thinking. Studies show young children struggle with concepts like conservation of quantity. Vygotsky emphasized social learning through guided participation and scaffolding.

Piaget theory for Cognitive Development by Bidita RahmanBidita Rahman
Cognitive development is the construction of thought processes, including remembering, problem-solving, and decision-making, from childhood through adolescence to adulthood.
Cognitive development refers to how a person perceives, thinks, and gains an understanding of his or her world through the interaction of genetic and learned factors. Among the areas of cognitive development are information processing, intelligence, reasoning, language development, and memory.
Historically, the cognitive development of children has been studied in a variety of ways. The oldest is through intelligence tests, such as the widely used Stanford Binet Intelligence Quotient (IQ) test first adopted for use in the United States by psychologist Lewis Terman (1877–1956) in 1916 from a French model pioneered in 1905. IQ scoring is based on the concept of "mental age," according to which the scores of a child of average intelligence match his or her age, while a gifted child's performance is comparable to that of an older child, and a slow learner's scores are similar to those of a younger child. IQ tests are widely used in the United States, but they have come under increasing criticism for defining intelligence too narrowly and for being biased about race and gender.
