What the genetic epistemology proposes is discovering the roots of the different varieties of knowledge, since its elementary forms, following to the next levels, including also the scientific knowledge.

The principal goal of education is to create men who are capable of doing new things, not simply of repeating what other generations have done-men who are creative, inventive, and discovers. The second goal of education is to form minds which can be critical, can verify, and not accept everything they are offered.

What we see changes what we know. What we know changes what we see.

To express the same idea in still another way, I think that human knowledge is essentially active.

Reflective abstraction, however, is based not on individual actions but on coordinated actions.

Experience precedes understanding.

In genetic epistemology, as in developmental psychology, too, there is never an absolute beginning.
