• Heinz story: In Europe, a woman was near death from a
special kind of cancer. There was one possible drug that
might save her, and it was made by a specific druggist
who charged 10 times what it cost to make the drug.
The woman’s husband, Heinz, tried to borrow money,
get a loan, and sell assets, but he couldn‘t pull together
enough money to pay for the drug. He went to the
druggist and asked if the druggist would sell the drug
for a lower price or if the druggist would let him pay
off the drug over time. The druggist refused, and
demanded full payment before he would give the drug
to Heinz. Having exhausted all possible means of
getting the drug legally, should Heinz break into the
druggists store, and steal the drug?
What do you think?

Discussion Question
Using specific examples, differentiate between the thinking
patterns of a 3-year-old preschooler and a 9-year-old student,
according to Piaget's theory of cognitive development.
•
•
Response correctly describes that the preschooler is in Piaget’s preoperational stage and correctly
describes various examples from the preoperational stage including the core idea that the
preschooler is unable to perform operations (or to think logically), such as:
thinking abilities that the child can do
–
–
–
•
or limitations of children’s thinking
–
–
–
•
•
•
•
•
•
using symbols to represent world
engaging in make-believe play
asking lots of questions to find out information
Egocentricism
inability to conserve
irreversible thinking.
Response also correctly describes that the 9 year-old is in Piaget’s concrete operations stage and
correctly describes various examples from the concrete operations stage including the core idea
that the 9 year-old cannot think abstractly (or has concrete thinking), such as:
less egocentrism
centration no longer occurs
capable of conservation
capable of reversible thinking
