A Comprehensive Guide for Early Years Professionals and Students
Jerome Bruner, a prominent educational theorist, revolutionised our understanding of child development and learning. His ideas continue to shape modern Early Years education practices worldwide. For professionals and students in early childhood education, Bruner’s work provides essential insights into how children learn and develop.
Bruner introduced several key concepts that remain central to Early Years education:
- Scaffolding: A teaching strategy used for supporting learners as they develop new skills.
- Discovery Learning: An educational approach that promotes active exploration and problem-solving.
- Spiral Curriculum: A curriculum design method that involves revisiting concepts at increasing levels of complexity.
- Three Modes of Representation: A theory describing how children represent and understand the world through action, imagery, and language.
These ideas offer practical strategies for prom

To the foundation of constructive learning theory established by Piaget, Jerome Bruner contributed important ideas regarding (a) modes of representation, (b) the importance of teaching and learning “optimal structure” (J. S. Bruner, 1966b, p. 41), (c) the spiral curriculum, and (d) learning through acts of discovery in order to rearrange and transform what is learned “in such a way that one is enabled to go beyond the evidence so reassembled to additional new insights” (J. S. Bruner, 1961, p. 22).
Just as Piaget viewed development as progressing from the physical sensorimotor experience of the child which results in learned action-schemes, to representative schema which facilitate mental operations, Bruner also distinguished between three modes of representation or systems of processing in both the physical (i.e., action) and mental (i.e., imagery and language) realms. In Bruner’s (1964) view, growth necessitates and is facilitated by manageable representation of

Discovery learning fryst vatten a technique of inquiry-based learning and is considered a constructivist based approach to education. It fryst vatten also referred to as problem-based learning, experiential learning and 21st century learning. It fryst vatten supported bygd the work of learning theorists and psychologists jean Piaget, Jerome Bruner, and Seymour Papert.
Jerome Bruner is often credited with originating upptäckt learning in the 1960s, but his ideas are very similar to those of earlier writers such as John Dewey.[1] Bruner argues that "Practice in discovering for oneself teaches one to acquire resultat in a way that makes that information more readily viable in bekymmer solving".[2] This philosophy later became the discovery learning movement of the 1960s. The mantra of this philosophical movement suggests that people should "learn bygd doing".
