Understanding Cognition and Emotion
Cognition
Cognition encompasses processes such as memory, attention, 
language, problem-solving, and planning. These sophisticated 
functions are thought to be unique to primates and play crucial 
roles in leading to, following, and during emotional experiences.
Emotion
Emotion is an essential aspect of the teaching-learning process. 
It interacts with cognition to play a constructive role in how 
students acquire and process information, influencing their 
overall learning experience.

Components of Cognition
Perception
Organizes and understands 
the world through sensory 
stimuli.
Attention
Allows concentration on 
specific stimuli for 
thorough processing.
Memory
Enables coding, storing, and 
retrieving past information.
Thought
Integrates information and 
establishes relationships 
between events and 
knowledge.
Language and learning are key parts of cognition. Language expresses thoughts through 
speech and writing, while learning adds new knowledge.

Cognitive Development in 
Children
1
Sensory motor Stage (0-2 years)
Learning through physical senses and movement, without symbolic thought.
2
Pre-operational Stage (2-7 years)
Symbolic thinking emerges, with growing memory and imaginative capabilities.
3
Concrete Operational Stage (7-11 years)
Logical reasoning develops for tangible situations and objects.
4
Formal Operational Stage (11+ years)
Abstract thinking and complex problem-solving abilities emerge.
