I've gone through this page and Theory of cognitive development and this page contains all the information that the other one does. This page is more detailed so this content should be kept, but I think that it should be moved to the other title. I'll request the page move. Matt 23:57, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Criticisms

Why is there nothing on the current state of Piaget's theories in modern developmental science? I'm pretty sure most current infant researchers aren't Piagetians, or at least not strictly so. What are the criticisms or modern supporting evidence? — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 17:43, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

I tried to (very briefly) address this in the new section I added, 'Challenges to Piagetian Stage Theory'. While only a start, it is at least that. I plan to add better referencing shortly! SlipperyN 21:22, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Seems to neglect Piaget's moral development theories throughout the stages such as the heteronomous during the preoperational and the autonomoous during the concrete operationalJoshNck 12:55, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Application/Influence of the Theory

Can someone add some more information as to how Piaget's Theory is "the most historically influential theory" as I don't see anything mentioned on the influence his theory had on education. Gaz 09:57, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
