Piaget: developmental psychologist

-Reshaped understanding of how we learn about the world and how we develop

-Worked for Binet on IQ tests, found it interesting that children of different age groups would make the same mistakes

*Knowledge starts with active interaction, starts from the self

-Metaphor: children are sponges (soak up everything in the environment), however, Piaget says that children are actively aware of their surroundings and taking in information and doing things with this info.
