Educational Implications Piaget’s theory : The content of instruction needs to
be consistent with the developmental level of the learner. § Provide concrete props and visual aids, such as
models and/or time line § Use familiar examples to facilitate learning more
complex ideas, such as story problems in math. § Allow opportunities to classify and group
information with increasing complexity; use outlines and hierarchies to facilitate assimilating new information with previous knowledge.
§ Present problems that require logical analytic thinking; the use of tools such as "brain teasers" is encouraged.
