    This document summarizes cartoons demonstrating Piaget's stages of cognitive development: 1. Cartoons 1-3 and 5 show children in the preoperational stage displaying centration, egocentrism, and inability to understand other perspectives. 2. Cartoon 4 shows a girl in the concrete operational stage able to logically apply rules to a game. 3. Cartoon 6 shows a boy in the formal operational stage thinking hypothetically about school in an abstract way. 4. Cartoon 7 shows a boy in the concrete operational stage logically applying rules about events. The oldest child in the tale uses deductive reasoning from general principles to open a jar, demonstrating the formal operational stage

    Cognitive Development – Exercise of Piaget’s Theory

    Possible Answers to the Cartoon Exercises:

    Cartoon 1: Stage 2: Preoperational – the child demonstrated the characteristic of


    centration as he thought that learning to be “half” as good as others means a test score of
    50/100.

    Cartoon 2: Stage 2: Preoperational – The child displayed the characteristic of animism


    by asking if he needs to greet the “Winter” politely.

    Cartoon 3: Stage 2 Preoperational – Children displayed the characteristics of


    centration and egocentrism. They thought the age of 25 – 30 is not young anymore, but
    they related to the world only through their own age. Thus, the age range of 25 – 30 is
    not young compared to age 4 or 5. In addition, they ignored an important aspect that the
    advertisement was hiring a economist (經濟專家), which is not easy to earn such
    qualification at the age of 25 – 30.

    Cartoon 4: Stage 3 Concrete Operational – The girl decided to “Play” freedom by


    holding a light bulb on right hand and a book on the left hand. This reflects the girl’s
    abilities to apply or logical operations (set a rule for playing a game) at a concrete
    level.

    Cartoon 5: Stage 2 Preoperational – Children displayed the characteristics of


    centration and egocentrism. In response to the teacher’s question of “Let’s learn about
    direction today. Where is the sun coming from?”, the child said “Morning”. It reflects
    the child only focuses on the time, but ignores the direction where the sun is coming in
    solving the problem. When the teacher asked the question again “Where is the sun rising
    from?” The child answered “Outside the window”. When the teacher probed him again,
    he said “I have no idea to see the sunrise from another place to know where is it rising
    from”. It reflects his inabilities to understand other’s perspective.

    Cartoon 6: Stage 4 Formal operational – The boy displayed hypothetical and abstract
    thinking by saying that he can think about the learning in school from an opposite
    direction. He used to think the teacher forced him to study and do homework. Now, he
    thinks that he forces the teacher to teach him and to give homework to him. It reflects his
    abilities to create a hypothetical situation that is not possible in reality.

    Cartoon 7: Stage 3 Concrete Operational – The boy asked the question, “Somewhere
    must be leaking; how come the so much water has flowed to here?” The child
    understands and applies logical thinking (rules) of events at a concrete level.

    Reasoning at everyday tale

    Young and Middle child (Stage 3 Concrete Operational) tried to solve a problem from
    trials-and-errors and applied logical thinking from their concrete experiences of
    opening the jar. The oldest child (Stage 4 Formal Operational) used deductive

    reasoning (reasoning from general principles, through specific steps, to a specific
    conclusion.) by applying the principle of contraction and expansion in response to
    temperature change (冷縮熱脹) to open the jar.
