THE CONNECTION BETWEEN LEARNING LANGUAGE AND COGNITION

Abstract

       While teaching process, teachers need to know the pupil`s ability to catch and to digest the information. In this process, the term “cognitive capability” plays a great role. It was once believed that infants lacked the ability to think or form complex ideas and remained without cognition until they learned language. It is now known that babies are aware of their surroundings and interested in exploration from the time they are born. From birth, babies begin to actively learn. They gather, sort, and process information from around them, using the data to develop perception and thinking skills.
