Jean Piaget -- memory and intelligence

Description

Between ages 3 and 7, many structures form which will be indispensable for future mental development. Anything we can do to favor preschool education seems essential for the ultimate development of the child. I am very impressed by the principle of your Japanese League of Preschool Education-- to base education on psychological data, including the most recent and theoretical principles. Very often educators use out-dated theories of psychology. However, in the schools I visited yesterday, and in the work of Dr. Matsui and his collaborators, I have observed an attempt to adapt preschool education to the most current knowledge in child psychology. The study of child psychology has concerned my colleague, Dr. Inhelder, and myself for many years.
