Piaget's treatment of everyday learning corresponds to the Cattell-Horn formulation of crystallized ability in that both reflect the impress of experience.

Constructivism in education is rooted in epistemology, a theory of knowledge concerned with the logical categories of knowledge and its justification. [3] It acknowledges that learners bring prior knowledge and experiences shaped by their social and cultural environment and that learning is a process of students "constructing" knowledge based on their experiences.
There are those who also cite the contribution of John Dewey such as his works on action research, which allows the construction of complex understanding of teaching and learning. [2] Dewey and Piaget researched childhood development and education; both were very influential in the development of informal education. Dewey's idea of influential ...
Jean Piaget is inexorably linked to cognitive development as he was the first to systematically study developmental processes. [6] Despite being the first to develop a systemic study of cognitive development, Piaget was not the first to theorize about cognitive development. [7] Jean-Jacques Rousseau wrote Emile, or On Education in 1762. [8]
