Originating in the multidisciplinary field of cognitive sciences, cognitive education represents specific branch of cognitive therapy pertaining to education. This current is mainly based on the theoretical work of researchers such as Jean Piaget, Jerome Bruner, Lev Vygotsky, Reuven Feuerstein and H. Carl Haywood. Up until now, the main methods that have been developed and translated into practical programmes are: the logical reasoning workshops, the Instrumental Enrichment programme and the Bright Start curriculum for young children.
