30 juin - 2 juil. 2010 - 19th Advanced Course of the Archives Jean Piaget: Thinking, Reasoning, and Development

The Archives Jean Piaget organize from June, 30 to July 2, 2010 the 19th Advanced Course.

The aim of this biannual conference is to group the best specialists of a domain around a topic that has a particular relevance for Jean Piaget’s theory and developmental psychology.

One of the most important aspects of Piaget’s theory has probably been his interest in the development of thinking and reasoning. Describing intellectual development as a progression towards a rational and logical way of thinking, he claimed that far from being a cognitive function among others, reasoning is the same as intelligent thinking. This provocative view was the source of a still-continuing debate about the nature and roots of human rationality.

Thus, the next Advanced Course will be entitled Thinking, Reasoning, and Development .

A series of 12 one-hour lectures given by the most prominent theorists of the field will offer a panorama of the recent advances in these topics.

The Advanced Course is devoted to any scholar, researcher or student interested in cognitive development, thinking, and reasoning who are invited to submit posters related to these topics.

Submission deadline for poster: April, 17 2010
