Aims and Hypothesis

The aim of the study is to use the Piaget theory that relates to the cognitive development that is used to help the children and analyze that scaffolding is best to teach the children in a proper way.  The Piaget theory is all related to the proper development of the children so that they can easily struggle with the Maths subject. The analysis of scaffolding is done in this experimental paper. Piaget theory includes the development of the students or children and manages their mental development. The nature of intelligence of the children is included in the overall process of the system.

The Hypothesis is very useful in the experiment the use of scaffolding for the proper experiment as it gives both the positive and negative sense of the idea. This experiment had been carried out.  Both senses of the idea are very useful in taking any research experiment. There are two types of statement mention in a hypothesis that is H0,  which includes the positive sense of the sentence related to the topic, and H1 includes the negative sense of sentence related to the topic. The Hypothesis of this research experiment are described below-

H0:  The scaffolding is best to teach the children and it manages the cognitive development among children.

H1: The scaffolding is not included as the best method to teach the children and this process does not manage the cognitive development among children.

Method

In this experiment, the researchers use various methods. These methods are very essential for achieving the proper objectives in the experiment. The experiment that is carried out based on the effect of scaffolding method that helps the children in the overall mental development and to manage the intelligence of children (Carr and Pike, 2012). The experiment that has carried include the various designs to implement the proper experiment as it is related to the mental development of the children

In a psychology experiment, there are different methods used to carry out the experiment. Mainly there are three types of method used in carrying out the proper experiment (Saxe, 2015). The methods are independent measures, repeated measures and Matched Pairs. The independent measures are used by random allocation, which gives the information that every participant assigned to one group or other. The other method is a repeated measure in which design is made within the groups. The same participant takes part in each condition of the independent variable. The same group is used in this process. The third method is matched pairs in which each condition uses different but similar participants. In this experiment, the independent measure is used in the overall process in which the participants are randomly selected.

Procedure

The experiment has been considered to improve the mental development of the children. The scaffolding method is used to teach the children regarding their problem. This experiment is used to improve the cognitive development among children as they struggle with the math’s subject in their study. To perform this experiment, the independent design is used that is very much effective in carried out the proper experiment (Eliot, 2012). This design is very useful in this experiment. By using this design, the participants are selected to analyze the aim of the experiment. In this experiment, the participants are randomly selected to analyze the development of the children. The children selected randomly to measure their mental development regarding the struggle in their study of the Maths subject (MacKinnon, 2012). The experiment has been carried out based on the proper development in the children in their study process. There are various steps used in conducting the experiment:

• Ask questions included in the test
• Design the proper study of the experiment and collect the data relevant to the experiment
• Analyze the results and reach conclusions
• Share the results with the related community
• Replicate the results

Results

The result of the experiment shows the various aspects related to the study of the experiment. The experiment based on the cognitive development of the children that helps in maintaining the mental development of the children. This experiment includes the children that struggle with the Maths subject in their study and suffer the overall development in their study. By the experiment, it has been analyzed that scaffolding is very effective in the overall development of the children in the classroom (Barrouillet, 2012). The scaffolding affects the overall achievement of the children in the experiment. The students achieved the proper mental development, as they need to struggle with Maths subject. The results give the criteria based on students that they handle the struggle facing in a particular subject and attain the proper mental development. This experiment is very much useful for the children as scaffolding is very helpful for the children development (Morra, et al., 2012). The test has been conducted among the children provides better development in the children’s and the children are cognitively developed in a proper manner.

Discussion

This experiment related to the children development by the Piaget process that includes the special theory of cognitive development. This development is very important among the children and this theory based on cognitive development. For achieving the mental development, the children go through the four stages that help the children to acquire knowledge and this improves the nature of intelligence among children so they easily handle the struggle faced in Maths subject (Obradovic, et al., 2016). By this experiment, the overall study of the children improved. The learning process becomes active by using cognitive development among children.

This experiment makes the overall development of the children and makes their learning process more effective. The mental intelligence is necessary for the children to handle the Maths subject and this is very important for the overall development of the children (Resnick and Ford, 2012). The Piaget theory includes the process to develop the mental intelligence of the children.
