Piaget's Cognitive theory and Lev Vygotsky's Social Development Theory help me understand students and their growth at various stages. The two concepts about effective teaching that I plan to apply in my paper are: teacher-centered approach and student-center approach.

Piagets cognitive theory and Lev Vygotskys social Development Theory, which are mentioned in simplypsychology.org are two concepts about psychology and human development that help me understand students and their growth at various stages. Piagets Cognitive theory focuss on the concept that children think differently than adults, he broke down his theory into four universal stages of cognitive development. Vygotsky, on the other hand, developed the Social Development Theory. This theory stresses the fundamental role of social interaction in the development of cognition which plays a central role in the process of making meaning.
Learning Theories The Principles of learning; found on the Carnegie Mellon University website lists 7 basic principles that underlie effective learning. These principles were distilled from research from a variety of disciplines. Two that caught my eye the most were Students prior knowledge can help or hinder learning and Students current level of development interacts with the social, emotional, and intellectual climate of the course to impact learning. The first one means that students are already coming into class with their own knowledge, beliefs, and attitutes from other courses and through their daily life. This knowledge influences how the student will take in new information. The tricky part comes when the knowledge is based on a strong foundation of understanding or not. Being able to tap into that knowledge at the right point and time is what will determine whether or not the student will be an active participant in the classroom. The second learning theory calls out to the other parts that make up the student, which are the intellectual, social, and emotional sides of them. We, as teachers, need to be aware of this because our students are still developing their skills in these three domains. The environment we create in our classrooms is going to be an implication on our students, to make or break how a student will be participating.
Effective Teaching The two concepts about effective teaching that I plan to apply in my paper include the two approaches that best support my philosophy of education and my classroom demographic, they are: teacher-center approach and student-center approach. Teacher-centered approach is basically direct instruction. Direct instruction refers to formal authority, being the classroom expert, and have a personal model. Student-centered approach can be divided into inquiry-based learning and cooperative learning. These two require a facilitator and a delegator.
