Outline of Final Research Achievements

How are the executive function (EF) as a socio-cognitive developmental skills concerned with preschool children’s abilities to think cooperatively and reflectively according to situational demands? In the beginning, we arranged several batteries of EF: delay of gratification; theory of mind; language (syntactical and semantical) understanding. Secondly, we focused on the dialogicality in preschool children’s peer teaching, analyzing the depth of participation into the learner’s mental processes. Then we investigated how asymmetrical / symmetrical paring would promote nursery children’s collaboration. Thirdly, we confirmed through comparative analyses of persuasive versus authoritative Math lessons that the former class of children promoted their metacognitive thinking and learning. And finally, we arranged preschool educational program to foster young children’s EF.
