Watch the VLS video: Cognitive Development: Infant Block Play (https://stream.virtuallabschool.org/cognitive/3545/3545-480.mp4) (Virtual Lab School, n.d.).
As presented in your text, there are several perspectives which attempt to explain how learning occurs; but regardless of the theoretical perspective, cognitive development is highly dependent on experiences for development. You have been assigned by the Analyzing Childrens Cognitive Development Pre-Activity to one theoretical perspective of cognitive development: Piagetian, Vygotskian, or information-processing.

In your discussion post,

Provide a brief analysis of the behaviors you observed in the Cognitive Development: Infant Block Play (Links to an external site.) video based on the theoretical perspective to which youve been assigned. Refer to the table below for some of the key ideas or terms that are associated with each perspective. These should be included in your initial post.
Propose at least two strategies or activities that could be used to support development and is consistent with the theoretical perspective to which you were assigned.
