FAQ About Jean Piaget

Why is Piaget's theory considered a constructivist theory?
Piaget's theory is considered a constructivist theory because it posits that learning is an active process where individuals construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world, through experiencing things and reflecting on those experiences. Constructivism emphasizes that knowledge is not passively absorbed but is actively built by the learner, aligning with Piaget’s view that children learn best through active exploration and interaction with their environment.
