Consider applications to education (16 marks) AO2 Piaget believed in the progress of a child’s cognitive development through schooling and has an individualist approach in the way in which the child is an active participant and is responsible for their own learning. According to Piaget‚ cognitive development occurs as the result of maturation. You cannot teach a child certain activities before they are biologically ready‚ for example trying to reach a pre-operationalized child to perform abstract

The Information Processing Model The following example of an information processing model gives an insight into how the brain processes information and where that information is stored in our memory. It stems from the ideas of several theorists (Atkinson & Shriffen 1968; Nessier 1976; R.Gagne 1985.) In my teaching environment‚ the implications that could stem from this model could be the importance of trying to connect the topic about to be discussed with the students. Sensory memory

ABSTRACT ‘Cognitive Computing’ is a search for computer science-type software/hardware elements that are consistent with known neurobiological facts about the brain and give rise to observed mental processes of perception‚ memory‚ language‚ intelligence‚ and‚ eventually‚ consciousness. Very simply speaking‚ Cognitive Computing is when computer science meets neuroscience to explain and implement psychology. Cognitive computing refers to the development of computer systems modeled after the human
