AI Article Synopsis

  • The teleological stance helps kids understand the purpose behind events, allowing them to see how actions can lead to specific goals.
  • Natural pedagogy complements this by teaching children how to interpret and represent new situations, even when the causes aren’t immediately clear.
  • Together, these concepts enable children to establish a hierarchy of goals, guiding their choices and actions effectively.

In this sense, the teleological stance allows children to build a goal hierarchy, based on which they become able to select the actions to perform.
