Examples of assimilate in the following topics:
-
-
- Assimilation usually involves a gradual change of varying degree.
- Immigrant assimilation is one of the most common forms of assimilation.
- Other than marriage, citizenship is one of the most significant factors in assimilation.
- These modes of incorporation affect how a child will assimilate into U.S. society, and determine how vulnerable the child will be towards downward assimilation.
- Give a real life example for each of the four benchmarks of immigrant assimilation
-
- In order for Angie to make sense of what her father just told her about the picture, she would have had to somehow assimilate the information from her father into her existing internal cognitive structures.
- Assimilation occurs when a child perceives new objects or events in terms of existing schemas or operations.
- Piaget emphasized the functional quality of assimilation, where children and adults tend to apply any mental structure that is available to assimilate a new event, and actively seek to use this newly acquired mental structure.
-
- Assimilation of Consonants.
- Consonants are often assimilated to a following sound.
-
- Companies seeking a diverse workforce face issues of assimilation into the majority group and wage equality for minorities.
- The challenges of assimilating a large workforce can be summarized as difficulties in communication and resistance to change from dominant groups.
- Resistance to change is a slightly different barrier to assimilating more diversity in work groups, as it pertains more to the momentum of company culture.
- Arguably the largest downside of assimilation, however, is that when diverse employees do most of the acclimating, the value of having varying perspectives is diminished.
- Understanding the barriers to effectively assimilating, with a particular focus on communication and avoiding group biases, is a critical step in creating a more conducive environment.
-
- However, this chapter will discuss four of Piaget's key concepts that are applicable to learning at any age: assimilation, accommodation, equilibration, and schemas.
-
- Cognitive development is a complex process comprising three principal concepts affecting the development process: assimilation, accommodation and equilibration.
-
- Assimilation and accommodation are both part of the adaptation process.
- Piaget believed that human beings possess mental structures that assimilate external events, and convert them to fit their mental structures.
- The intent is to give you an alternative way of learning about assimilation, accommodation, equilibration and schemas.
-
- Meaning schemes are frames of reference that are based on the totality of an individual's experiences over a lifetime of cultural assimilation.
- When their meaning schemes interpret and assimilate a new experience, it may either just reinforce the perspective or gradually stretch its boundaries.
- People may change their meaning schemes as they add to or assimilate new information to their prior scheme and, in fact, this kind of transformation may commonly occur through learning.
-
- Transformative learning does not happen by itself; it takes place when learners face a radically different and incongruent situation or information that cannot be assimilated into their meaning perspective.
- Interestingly, words like assimilation and ideas like "incongruent situation" align quite well with Piaget's Constructivism ideas of assimilation and disequilibration.
