My wife and I are having a difference of opinion on the validity of waldorf education.?We both greatly respect the work of Jean Piaget, yet I find Rudolf Steiner to be, for the lack of a better word, a quack.?His scientific writings are nonsense and unvalidated.?Waldorf educators use continually Piaget’s research and writings as a validation of Steiner’s ideas on childhood development.?
My question to you is, during Piaget’s lifetime, did he ever comment in writing on Steiner’s viewpoints on childhood development??When I search the web for information on Piaget’s viewpoints on Steiner all I get are the waldorf proponents using his name but they never seem to quote anything specific.
