   Organisation
   Piaget says organisation is an innate ability that we have that allows us to form schema about our world. Without this ability we would be overwhelmed by the stimuli that surrounds us. We would be unable to function. Schemata are crucial to thinking. When a toddler sees a bus for the first time, and points to it, Mum says 'It's a bus'. The toddler then says 'Bus, bus, bus'! That is he or she opening up the mental file or schema for 'bus. Schemata are further developed through a process called adaptation. Adaptation sees increasingly more sophisticated schema evolve. And more sophisticated thinking.
