A.    Background
Learners can never be separated from learning, both at school and in the family environment. So it is very necessary cognitive abilities of learners in education. The role of both teacher educators or parents very involved in the cognitive development of learners.
In addition we as educators need to know the stages of cognitive development in Piaget's theory, we also need to know Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences which explains, the theory states that no child is dumb because every child has a different intelligence-different. There are eight kinds of intelligence, among others, (1) Linguistic intelligence, (2) logical-mathematical intelligence, (3) Intelligence gestures, (4) Musical intelligence, (5) visual-spatial intelligence, (6) interpersonal intelligence, (7) intrapersonal intelligence, and (8) naturalist intelligence.
Of Piaget's theory hatched and Gardner then we mix so I chose the title "The Relationship Between Stages of Cognitive Development Piaget With Gardner's Multiple Intelligences" which aims namely that educators wiser and able to appreciate the students in the field of education at home, at school and in the environment.

B.     Problem Formulation
1.      What are the stages of cognitive development as well as relationships with multiple intelligences?
2.      How to apply the stages of cognitive development in lesson plans (lesson plan)?

C.    Purpose
1.      Can understand the relationship of cognitive developmental stages of Piaget to Gardner's Multiple Intelligences.

2.      Be able to apply the stages of cognitive development in Piaget Lesson Plan.

DISCUSSION

A.    Relationship Between Stages of Cognitive Development With multiple intelligences (Multiple Intelligence) Gardner.



The picture explains that there is an important aspect of Piaget's theory is his description of the four stages of cognitive development to suit different age stages of development, each with a unique pattern of thoughts. These four stages are summarized in the table.
SENSORIMOTOR STAGE (Birth to about 2 years of age)
PRE-OPERATIONAL PHASE (2 years old up to about 6 or 7 years)
CONCRETE OPERATIONAL STAGE
(6 or 7 years old up to 11 or 12 years old)
FORMAL OPERATIONAL STAGE
(11 or 12 years to adult)
Schemes are based primarily on behavior and perception; children focus on what is happening in the here and now.
Schemes started presenting objects that are beyond the reach of direct view of the child, but the child has not been able to perform logical reasoning like an adult.
Reasoning that resembles the reasoning of adults began to emerge, however, limited to reasoning about concrete reality.
Logical reasoning processes to abstract ideas or objects to concrete.
The table explains that each developmental age each have a phase or phases of development according to the developmental age of the child is no sensorimotor stage (birth to about age 2 years), preoperational stage (2 years old up to about 6 or 7 years old), the operational phase concrete (6 or 7 years old up to 11 or 12 years), the formal operational stage (11 or 12 years to adult).
Allah says:

كِتَابٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهُ إِلَيْكَ مُبَارَكٌ لِيَدَّبَّرُوا آيَاتِهِ وَلِيَتَذَكَّرَ أُولُو الْأَلْبَابِ

Meaning:
"This is a Book which We have sent down to you full of blessings that they may heed His verses and lessons in order to get people who have a mind." (Q.S. Shad: 29)
The verse explains that God revealed to his people that the book is full of blessing His people to pay attention and think. That is why the need for cognitive development so that his people could develop the appropriate mindset stages of development age.
Intelligence was originally interpreted in everyday language as the ability to solve practical problems, and there is a perception that the ability to learn comes from the cognitive capacity. Furthermore, this meaning should be expanded and more fundamentally because basically intelligence and cognitive aspects inseparable from the mind or consciousness of human activity as a whole in relation to aspects of the whole human self and its interaction with its environment.
