How Does the Mind Grow?

Synopsis

Examines the three major schools of thought on cognitive development. Investigates Piaget’s theory, showing children at each stage of development and highlighting behavioural, symbolic and operational schemata, and explores Case’s information-processing approach. Discuses the possibility that these two seemingly conflicting throries are actually complementary.
