Module 13

The document describes the three stages of knowledge representation in children: 1) Enactive representation occurs in infancy through direct sensations and motor reactions. 2) Iconic representation begins at ages 2-3 through mental images. 3) Symbolic representation emerges at age 7 through language and other symbolic systems. It also explains that a spiral curriculum spreads learning over time by addressing material multiple times throughout grades, unlike a blocked curriculum that concentrates learning in shorter periods.

ASSESSMENT TASK:

1) Describe the development of the child’s ability to represent


knowledge.

Enactive representation
➢ Is the first stage of representation, beginning in infancy, in which a child's world is
represented through objects in terms of their immediate sensations of them. For
example, their muscular and motor reactions, as well as the manner in which they
affect their surroundings.

Iconic representation
➢ begins at the age of two to three years old and entails the creation of mental images that reflect
certain objects or events; imagery that is mostly action-free.

Symbolic representation
➢ is the ability to turn action and image into a symbolic system to encode knowledge,
which emerges around the age of seven. Language and mathematical notation are the
most common symbols.

2) Explain how the spiral curriculum works.


➢ Learning is spread out throughout time rather than concentrated in shorter times in a spiral
curriculum. In a spiral curriculum, material is addressed several times over the course of months and
grades. A spiral technique is typically contrasted with "blocked" or "massed" approaches, and several
names are used to characterize it, including "distributed" and "spaced." Learning is concentrated in
continuous blocks in a massed method. Massing is more frequent than spacing in the design of
instructional materials.
