Cognitive Development

/in ,

have you ever wondered why children develop odd understandings? For example, a child was heard to say, “Mommy went to the hospital to throw up her baby.” Where did the child get that idea if no one told him that?

Have you ever tried to help a child solve a problem or gain a new understanding? Were you successful?

This week, you have been studying the theories of Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky. These two 20th-century geniuses agreed that cognitive growth occurs as a result of processes internal to the child. However, they disagreed on the precise process. Piaget focused on developmental stages and Vygotsky focused on adults as the purveyors of cultural knowledge.

Returning to the example above, Piaget would say that the child thinks intuitively and has come to a mistaken conclusion. The child will automatically correct mistaken ideas as cognitive growth progresses and the child becomes able to reason, first more concretely and then more abstractly.

Vygotsky, on the other hand, would say that the child learns language, cultural knowledge, and rules from adults. If the adults understand the child’s current knowledge level and scaffold new information carefully, then the child can learn at a faster rate. This distance between what the child can know and do alone, and what the child can know and do with adult support, is called the Zone of Proximal Development.

Most adults who work with children are unaware of these theoretical views. However, they have a view of their own that influences how they interact with children. You likely already have a point of view that is probably more similar to either Piaget or Vygotsky. Try to proceed with an open mind.

To prepare for this Assignment:

Read the following example:

As a 3-year-old, Mateo was afraid of Santa Claus, believed his shadow was following him, and expected that all adults knew his name. He could sing the ABC song and count by rote to 10. By the time he was 8 years old, Mateo loved sitting on Santa’s lap, used his hands to make shadow characters, and was able to disagree with a friend without getting upset. He could read simple text and add, subtract, and multiply.
Think about the previous example from Piaget’s point of view and then from Vygotsky’s. What do you think each would say about how Mateo’s developmental changes came about? From Piaget’s point of view, consider the development of stages and egocentrism. From Vygotsky’s point of view, consider the Zone of Proximal Development and the adult’s role in providing cultural knowledge.

Pay philosophy

/in ,

Before you jump into week 2’s the assignment, please make sure you are taking time to read the example pay philosophies that are posted in the weekly material. I’m going to spend some time breaking down this assignment since many students fail to include the key elements or focus on the intention of the assignment.

Where I see mistakes on week 2’s assignment is that students fail to review what a pay philosophy is and fail to review samples before they start the assignment. Additionally, this week’s paper should focus in on the Managed by Q case. What I will be looking for in your paper is that it is clear that you understand what Q’s pay philosophy is; which may include writing it out within the paper. Then you need to really analyze how this philosophy impacts the profitability of Q and then discuss what (if any) competitive advantage it gives Q. The purpose of the assignment is to explore the importance of a compensation philosophy on an organization and we’ll be doing this by looking at the Managed by Q company.

So, let’s breakdown the assignment, it reads as follows:

Q Case Compensation Philosophy: Using the Q Case Study listed below, (1) you will be writing a compensation statement for Managed by Q and then (2) looking at how this philosophy impacts their financial performance, competitive advantage, recruitment, etc. Please consider all the stakeholders who are impacted and how their particular approach impacts these different view points.
