gulaghasi [49]

Schema, assimilation and accommodation

Explanation

Schema, assimilation and accommodation are three important concepts in Piaget’s cognitive development which the kids adapt to learn and understand their world.

Assimilation helps a kid to take new information and add it to the existing schema or old information about the same concept. For ex., identifying a four-legged animal as a cow by a kid is assimilation of a new information.

Accommodation helps a kid to analyze and modify the new or old schema or information based on what is learnt or experienced. For ex., Identifying that all four-legged animals are not cow and they can be a horse or bullock also depending upon the difference in their structure is the accommodation made by the kid on top of existing schema of four-legged animals.
