Jean Piaget: How a Child Thinks

No copyright infringement intended

This video was made as a final project by Gloria Pugliese (good friend and classmate) and myself for our "Psychology of Communication" class in Concordia University with Dr. W. Lambert Gardiner.

This short video discusses Piaget's studies with children and how they perceive the world around them through liminal experience.

Video edited, pictures and script by Gloria Pugliese using Final Cut Pro

@urberiosom Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed it!!

Interesting. Shame the script was read way too fast and therefore difficult to understand at times.

[PutANameProductions]

@andrea4880 We're so sorry about that, unfortunately we were only allowed up until a certain time and we didn't realize how much we had to omit until we were in production. We'll take note of that and make sure our next video(s) won't have the same issue.

Thank you for this feedback!

2:35 "Since they know the world through limited experience, they make up an explanation if they do not have one."

And that, folks, is how every religion was formed. ;)

Very good. I'm a child and didn't no that!!!! Piget's theory is very interesting

Like the style of your presentation however I did find some mistakes. At 2:35 The second stage is the sensorimotor stage. The concrete operations stage lasts from 6 or 7 to 11 years old, the picture at 0:09 is not that from Piaget and the formal operational stage (12 to adulthood, so still a child) is completely left out.

@EdgePitSwing Look up Islam. Then you will see that our comment is incorrect.

[Portubed]

@EdgePitSwing You see folks, I understood quite a lot and it wasn't me shoving or reading anything into it.

[EdgePitSwing]

@Portubed I hope you understood the difference between hypothesizing and shoving "God" into the equation. While my statement was lacking in substance, the taste should have been on the back of your tongue.

[Portubed]

@EdgePitSwing That's how all science comes about too. It relies on presuppositions it cannot verify, otherwise you'd be arguing in a circle. Heuristics and hypothesizing is the only way to move forward, with life and with knowledge. The way you spoke of it is incredibly narrow-minded for someone attempting to criticize religion, lol
