incrimental working of prime numbers.

Answer 2

Although there is no general theory of cognitive development, one of the most historically influential theories was developed by Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist (1896–1980). His theory provided many central concepts in the field of developmental psychology and concerned the growth of intelligence, which for Piaget, meant the ability to more accurately represent the world and perform logical operations on representations of concepts grounded in the world. The theory concerns the emergence and acquisition of schemata—schemes of how one perceives the world—in "developmental stages", times when children are acquiring new ways of mentally representing information.

Answer 3

Hi

Piaget believes that you need to ignore the chronological age of the student (i.e. their real age in years and months), that all of us go through various stages at various speed and that until you have reach a specific stage you cannot understand and apply the mathematical concepts linked to that stage.
