| dc.description.abstract | This research report defends Seymour Papert's assertion that LOGO researchers 'have "missed the point" of the philosophy which underpins the, LOGO learning environment. It establishes continuities between Papert's "exercise in an applied genetic epistemology" and Jea:rl' Piagetl"s genetic epistemology. G\iven"this relationship the report argues that Papert's theory and rese#rch should be. :-' located within the p,~agetian research prograllune. From this perspective Papert IS assertiol1 is justified to the extent that LOGO researchers have "missed the point" of his epistemolo~ical concerns and misconstrued the constructivist nature of the LOGO learning environment. | en_ZA |
