Abstract
The first part of this paper is a rather lengthy and detailed
summary of the experimental works of Piaget in the areas
of number and geometry. I had a number of reasons for making the
summary so detailed. Unfortunately, Piaget is a relatively obscure
person in the field of education. There are many very brief summaries
of Piaget's work, but they are so brief that it is hard to
realize just how important Piaget's discoveries really are. Also,
by explaining his techniques and the results of his experiments
in full, I hoped to make it easier to see the many implications of
his work in the field of education. Last, but certainly not least,
writing it all out helped me to understand exactly what Piaget was
saying.
