In response to an earlier post, I think that one reason that Piaget
is no longer fashionable among Physics people is that Piagettian ideas
allowed us to understand and categorize some of our successes and
failures but never produced any systems that produced better
instruction. At least, no systems were publicized that produced better
instruction without using up very large amounts of instructor time. I
think that there is a lesson for contemporary efforts in there also.
