David Ausubel
From WikEd
David Ausubel was the developer of Advance organizers in 1960. His work was modeled after the work of Jean Piaget. His approach to teaching is a highly used tool by teachers. He felt that advance organizers are best used when there is no prior knowledge available to the students. (Geier, http://home.earthlink.net/~dougary/ITEC_800/final_project/ausubel.htm, 11/22/04).
