Summary "Based on sound learning, this new book demonstrates the basic tenets of Piaget's constructivist theory in a comprehensive format. This test shows how constructivism can be applied to all areas of the curriculum: language arts, science, math, social studies, and the arts. Chapters include vignettes of classroom examples to help the reader connect the abstract, theoretical concepts to concrete applications."--Jacket.
