I must write a three-page paper about Cognitivism, Piaget, Cognitive Development and Situated Learning. There should be anIntroduction Includes and thoroughly develops ALL of the following: (1) Clearly indicates and very briefly describes the theory or theories being reviewed; (2) Provides a rationale for why these theories (many of them widely accepted) need further review; and (3) Includes a clear and concise evaluation of the theory or theories, whether positive, negative, or mixed.- this should be only a paragraph with a thesis of why these theories need to be evaluated.Summary-Writean objective summary of the theories, brief summary of the theorist's intended purpose for the theory andhow or if the theory has been applied to teaching and learning in K-12, higher education-This should be a paper and a halfCritique- why these theories need to be modified or improvement -This should be a page Conclusion (15 pts)Clearly restates the writer's/presenter's opinion about the theory/theories and concludes the review. Includes recommendations for how the theories could be improved or more appropriately applied to support teaching and learning.-This should be a paragraph If you cannot fit all the work within three pages can you please let me know so I can take additional time to write in more information.

Cognitivism, Piaget, and Situated Learning 
An individual’s cognitive development is as important as his/her physical development. 
Psychological/mental development is essential for an individual to experience a quality life, and 
that is one reason why today the medical world is thoroughly concerned about learning more 
about the processes of cognitive development. It is in respect of the cognitive development 
process that the name of Piaget, as a theorist, deserves special mention, and it is in relation to the 
process of obtaining knowledge about cognitive development that the terms cognitivism and 
situated learning must be properly analyzed and explored. It is the intricate relationship between 
Piaget’s theory, cognitivism, and situated learning that can throw enough light on the topic of 
cognitive development that may eventually make one understand the complicated process in a 
simpler manner.  
Cognitivism, as a theory, emerged as a response to the theory of behaviorism that was 
long used to interpret an individual’s way of mental growth and development. Cognitivism 
should be considered as a revolution in the field of psychological studies that replaced 
behaviorism in the 1960s (Davey, 2015). Cognitivism “focuses on the inner mental activities – 
opening the “blackbox” of the human mind is valuable and necessary for understanding how 
people learn. Mental processes such as thinking, memory, knowing, and problem-solving need to 
be explored” (Davey, 2015). Though cognitivism emerged as a replacement to behaviorism; just 
like the behaviorist psychologists the cognitivists believed that every study regarding learning 
should be objective in nature and that empirical research should form the basis of every learning 
theory (Kristinsdottir, 2008). With the evolution of the cognitivist model, today, almost every 
conitivist psychologists believe that (through the observation of different responses made by 
different individuals to different stimuli), “they can draw inferences about the nature of the 
COGNITIVE DEVELOPMENT  3 
internal cognitive processes that produce those responses” (Kristinsdottir, 2008). Moreover,
