Curiosity is associated with cognitive development and learning. In fact, Piaget suggested that being curious is a prerequisite for knowledge construction. One way to increase curiosity is to put individuals in situations of uncertainty, so that they become motivated to seek knowledge of the unfamiliar. A teaching method that appears to do this…

In Brazil, mathematics education was associated with Jean Piaget's theory. Scholars in the field of education appropriated Piaget's work in different ways, but usually emphasized logical aspects of thought, which probably lead to an expansion of mathematics education influenced by psychology. This study attempts to extend the range of…

The present study was conducted mainly to investigate the applicability of children's conception space presented in Piaget's Cognitive Development theory to Sri Lankan children. The study attempted to identify whether there were variations in Sri Lankan children's conception of space according to the sectors i.e. urban, rural and estate, they live…

The COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity to explore how different modes of learning may impact student achievement. Little research has been conducted regarding how the pandemic may have affected students' reading skills. The problem addressed in this study was that the effects of varying and inconsistent learning environments for Title I K-2…

In this theoretical paper, I consider reversibility as a defining characteristic of mathematics. Inverse pairs of formalized operations, such as multiplication and division, provide obvious examples of this reversibility. However, there are exceptions, such as multiplying by 0. If we are to follow Piaget's lead in defining mathematics as the…
