Conclusion

While incorporating the theory of cognitive development in classroom or teaching, one of the most important things a teacher should take into consideration is to identify how cognitively developed the children are and improve their learning experience through guided activities, open activities, individual and peer activities. Also, teachers should listen to the children’s stories or talks, visualize their drawings by asking them, identify their ideas about different conservations and think meaningfully about every single thing they do.

Moreover, children should not be taught certain concepts until they have reached the appropriate stage cognitive development. The teacher should become aware of how well the learners learn, process and remember the information presented to them so that suitable tasks can be set. If teachers are more conscious about these aspects they can cater more effective lessons and create a positive learning environment for the learners.
