APPENDIX [Abstract of Hake (2005)]
During September 2005 an excerpt from Stan Metzenberg's disquieting opinion "Piaget goes down for the Long Count" was transmitted to many discussion lists. That distribution and subsequent cross-posting led to relatively widespread discussion (about 47 posts), not only of Jean Piaget but also Socrates, John Dewey, Lev Vygotsky, and Kiernan Egan's provocative "Getting it Wrong from the Beginning: Our progressivist inheritance from Herbert Spencer, John Dewey, and Jean Piaget." In hopes of promoting further multidisciplinary discussion along such lines, I have placed in the APPENDIX posts that appeared on 10 different discussion lists: AERA-D, AERA-K, Chemed-L, Dewey-L, DrEd, Math-Learn, Phys-L, PhysLrnR, POD, and TIPS by 19 different authors: Bellina, Clement, Dawson-Tunik, Dykstra, Garkov, Grace, Green, Hunt, Kelly, Laitsch, Millis, Purichia, Raimi, Rauber, Rock, Schulz, Scott, Uretsky, and Wall.
