bezimeni [28]

Answer:

In the context of the Piagetian stages, she is most likely in the preoperational stage.

Explanation:

According to Piaget, the preoperational stage of cognitive development is the second stage, taking place from 2 to 7 years of age. Children at this stage are able to work with symbols, but are still unable to do logical (concrete) thinking.

One of the principles children at this stage are still unable to understand is conservation - the fact that the appearance of something changes, but its quantity remains the same. Children who are able to conserve understand that, if you pour one liter of water from a bottle into a big bowl, the amount of water is still the same one liter. A child at the preoperational stage would not comprehend that.

dedylja [7]

Answer:

Foucault contributed with the phylosophical discurs, his contributions questioned the status quo, the way power can be difined and how it works in society. Power, discurs and knowledge are related. Power is present in every society, functioning in every human relationship, it is present in the discourse.

A discours opens the possibility and unpossibility of what is allowed to say and what not. Knowledge represents power, things can be done with knowledge, and this itself is power.

It is related to discurs becasue this is a powerful weapon of persuation, of controling what can and cannot be done. Knowldge is power, because of all the things that through a discurs can be done.

An example to illustrate this: how the medical discrus is trying to medicalize every bad behavior, by classifiying it as a disorder, so tha kids have to use medicines. Knowledge is the power medicine has, and they used that power, to influence their pacients into taking drugs.
