PIAGET'S THEORY OF COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT AND ITS EDUCATIONAL IMPLICATIONS Author(s): Prof Tuntufye S Mwamwenda J. Ponte - Jul 2019 - Volume 75 - Issue 7 doi: 10.21506/j.ponte.2019.7.11 Abstract: Piaget's theory of cognitive development is essentially based on the four stages of intellectual and mental development. These stages are commonly known as sensori-motor, preoperational, concrete operational and formal operations which range from 0 to about 12 years of age. Semantically, it ranges from infancy to adolescence. Such range is very important for the child and the teacher in the classroom. Knowledge of such development contributes to the teachers’ effective teaching. In this context, it is important for teachers to be familiar with the education implication of Piaget’s theory which is the principal objective of the current Paper. Such knowledge will certainly contribute to the learners’ understanding what is being taught as well as contribute to teachers being more effective in their profession and teaching career.
