The Spiral and the Lattice: Changes in Cognitive Learning Theory with Implications for Art Education.
Efland, Arthur D.
Studies in Art Education, v36 n3 p134-53 Spr 1995
Contrasts recent views of learning and cognition with cognitive learning theories of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Maintains that Jerome Bruner's spiral curriculum approach, still valuable, is not sufficient to explain cognitive development. Proposes a lattice-like cognitive development structure, inviting differing paths of exploration. (CFR)
