Overview
Explores critically & in detail conflicting views about how children think & learn. Outlines Piaget's theory of cognitive development & explores the views of some of his major critics. Compares Piaget's approach with those offered by Bruner, Vygotsky & other leading researchers, considering points of disagreement & establishing areas of common ground. Considers just what pressing contemporary issues in education stand to gain from them. Some relevant issues include: What is the value of literacy & why do some children have such problems in reading & writing?; & Why does an understanding of mathematics prove so elusive for many children?
