Abstract:
We present, justify and set the foundations of a learning model based on the three piagetian stages of knowledge construction: the dialectic triads that Piaget and associates called the INTRA, INTER and TRANS stages. We suggest the model may become a helpfui instrument for both research and teaching practice, particularly in terms of planning and curriculum development. We finish by describing research and actions we are conducting with the purpose of, on the one hand, giving empirical validity to the model and, on the other hand, developing its appiication as an instrument for teacher continuous education.
