What are the implications of piajet's theory to teaching and learning?

What are the implications of piajet's theory to teaching and learning?

Answers

Faith
I. Teachers should take a constructivist approach when teaching i.e children have to be actively involved as they learn best when they make discoveries rather than imitating teachers.
II. Facilitate rather than direct learning i.e. design lessons that allow students to learn doing which promotes learner's thinking and discovery.
III. Plan teaching by considering the children's level of knowledge and thinking.
The teacher needs to interpret student's responses and give feedback in a mode not too far from the student's level.
IV. Progress the teaching according to learner’s development.
Do not speed up intellectual development i.e. do not push or pressure students to learn things that their minds are not yet ready for.
V. Base lessons on existing knowledge and challenge student's understanding progressively.
