Answer:

A. Piaget

Read Explanation:

Constructivism is a psychological theory that originated from the work of Swiss developmental psychologist Jean Piaget (1896-1980): 

  • Theory

    Piaget's theory of cognitive development focuses on how children develop knowledge by interacting with their experiences and ideas. 

  • Processes

    Piaget's theory identifies processes like assimilation and accommodation, which describe how people acquire new information and modify their existing knowledge. 

  • Contributions

    Piaget's work is considered a foundational contribution to the field of constructivism. 

Constructivism has also been applied to education and psychotherapy: 

  • Education

    Constructivism in education suggests that learners construct their understanding through experiences and social interaction. 

  • Psychotherapy

    Constructivism in psychotherapy suggests that therapists and clients collaborate to create meaning together. Therapists help clients externalize their experiences by asking questions and paraphrasing what the client has said.
