GROWING MINDS: COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT IN EARLY CHILDHOOD ( DAVIDSON FILMS )

Nothing in human experience is quite so astonishing as the enormous changes that occur during the five short years that transform the newborn into the actively curious, exploring kindergartner. This film examines the work of Lev Vygotsky and Jean Piaget, illuminating the similarities and differences of their contributions to our understanding of the cognitive development of young children. Dr. Elkind uses their research and his own work to look at three aspects of intellectual growth: reasoning, visual perception and the use of language. Children are seen both in interview situations and busily participating in an accredited child care center to illustrate Dr. Elkinds points about their ever changing intellectual abilities. With David Elkind, Ph.D. This is a short clip from the film. further information available at www.davidsonfilms.com.
