According to Piaget, the mind builds and modifies psychological structures so they achieve a better fit with external reality.

*Specific psychological structures - organized ways of making sense of experience are called schemes

*Adaptation involves building schemes through direct interaction with the enviorment

*During assimilation, we use our current schemes to interpret the external world

*In accommodation's, we create new schemes or adjust old ones after noticing that our current ways of thinking do not capture the enviorment completely.

*Equilibrium is the balance between assimilation and accommodation, when children are not changing much

*During rapid cognitive change, children are in a state of disequilibrium, or cognitive discomfort.
