=Connecting Theory with Practice= Think about the age of student you might teach (Piaget's theory has implications for all ages...remember that when adolescents or adults are learning new things, they may or may not be in formal operations regarding the new things, so you'll have to adjust). There is a good chance that you will have students in two different stages for any age you would teach. What are some examples of things you would teach? What kinds of things would you need to do to accommodate more than one Piagetian stage? What materials would you use? How would you use class time so that learners in both stages could have their learning needs met?
