As cognitive abilities develop, humans progress in a hierarchical order. ]]> 2022-11-07 06:12:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372521487 https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372521766 In Kohlberg’s Stage 1 (Pre Conventional Morality), the child adopts an ethics of obedience and punishment —a sort of “morality of keeping out of trouble.” The rightness and wrongness of actions are determined by whether actions are rewarded or punished by authorities, such as parents or teachers. If a child takes a cookie and it brings affectionate smiles from adults, then taking the cookie is considered morally “good.” If it brings scolding instead, then it is morally “bad.”]]> 2022-11-07 06:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372521766 https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372521853 Piaget's theory. Children go from thinking morals/ rules are fixed and cannot be changed to knowing that morals are made and changed by people. Children will have to go though many experiences and different situations to learn and develop their own morals.]]> 2022-11-07 06:12:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372521853 https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372522044 Kohlberg's Theory.
The reason is that in this theory each level/stage clearly states the moral development of children and is relatable to children's development these days.]]> 2022-11-07 06:12:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372522044 https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372522130 Kohlberg's theory. It basically shows the changes that takes place in a child: the ability to understand one-self and also the influence of social norms of Dos and Donts. The theory sticks to a child from birth till old age, based on experiences and social influences that will change his/her way of thinking and perspective of things.]]> 2022-11-07 06:13:01 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372522130 maymyatsoe23 https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372522377 My favourate Moral development theory is Piaget's Theory.

1st level - pre conventional moral development (We make decisions on getting award and try to avoid getting punishment.)
2nd level - conventional moral development (Our decisions based on what their parents and/or law enforcement says is right.)
3rd level - (post moral development) our decisions based on ethical principles related to humanity. ]]> 2022-11-07 06:15:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372524307 https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372526882 Kohlberg's theory of moral development focuses on how children come about moral reasoning.

Children's ideas regarding rules, moral judgements and punishment tend to changes they got older. In the first stage, children follow strict rules and are completely obedient to authority. They see rules as inflexible things that do not change (moral realism) This is due to their cognitive development. As children begin to learn new things through interaction, they progress into the second stage where they learn to take the perspective of others and begin to judge how wrong an action is by the intention of the perpetrator.]]> 2022-11-07 06:25:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ece_01/xy25dea9gqjklf1x/wish/2372534384
