More quotes by Jean Piaget
The self thus becomes aware of itself, at least in its practical action, and discovers itself as a cause among other causes and as an object subject to the same laws as other objects.
Jean Piaget
Chance... in the accommodation peculiar to sensorimotor intelligence, plays the same role as in scientific discovery. It is only useful to the genius and its revelations remain meaningless to the unskilled.
Jean Piaget
When you teach a child something you take away forever his chance of discovering it for himself.
Jean Piaget
Intelligence is what you use when you don't know what to do.
Jean Piaget
Everytime we teach a child something, we prevent him from inventing it himself.
Jean Piaget
The most developed science remains a continual becoming
Jean Piaget
This means that no single logic is strong enough to support the total construction of human knowledge.
Jean Piaget
Play is the work of childhood.
Jean Piaget
What we see changes what we know. What we know changes what we see.
Jean Piaget
What the genetic epistemology proposes is discovering the roots of the different varieties of knowledge, since its elementary forms, following to the next levels, including also the scientific knowledge.
Jean Piaget
Only education is capable of saving our societies from possible collapse, whether violent, or gradual.
Jean Piaget

Jean Piaget
Play is the answer to how anything new comes about.
Jean Piaget
Knowing reality means constructing systems of transformations that correspond, more or less adequately, to reality.
Jean Piaget

Jean Piaget
Moral autonomy appears when the mind regards as necessary an ideal that is independent of all external pressures.
Jean Piaget
We learn more when we are compelled to invent.
Jean Piaget
To express the same idea in still another way, I think that human knowledge is essentially active.
Jean Piaget
Are we forming children who are only capable of learning what is already known? Or should we try to develop creative and innovative minds, capable of discovery from the preschool age on, throughout life?
Jean Piaget
Each time one prematurely teaches a child something he could have discovered himself, that child is kept from inventing it and consequently from understanding it completely.
