Abstract
"Piaget and Education provides readers with a comprehensive introduction to the work of Jean Piaget. This classroom work roots Piaget's work in its historical context, and then provides dozens of classroom-based examples of how that work helps teachers understand the lives of children. It is an excellent resource for practicing teachers and student teachers, as well as undergraduate and graduate courses in teacher education, curriculum, and philosophy of education."--BOOK JACKET.
