Piaget's cognitive theory is about how humans adapt. Piaget says that to adapt you have to go through assimilation, accommodation, organized development and construction. There are four discontinuous stages that signal qualitatively different ways of thinking. There are six substages before.
I relate to this a lot because I have had to adapt to several new things this year. When I started college, I moved out, so I had to adapt to being on my own for the first time.
When i think of my childhood with this theory, I think of my parent's divorce and how my brother and I had to adapt to living with just our mom. It was very difficult and hard, but we through the stages and we were fine.
I think this theory will help me as teacher because my students will have to adapt to my classroom and me. Knowing the steps can help me make them more comfortable. I can help them to go through the stages properly and adapt well to be successful.
