drawing conclusions
It just means that it is better to gain knowledge than to own a lot of stuff.
Sounds like you are describing "Montessori"
Piaget's theory of cognitive constructivism derives from the fact that people construct or make their own knowledge. While you can give someone knowledge, they may not be ready to learn it in your terms. Thus, the learner understands or learns the new info or material through an experience or relationship with the information... I once saw a young child, around 3 years old, play on the margin of his playgroup. He did not use verbal language and did not connect with the others who used words and sounds to express themselves. As his speech developed, he drew closer, physically, to the rest of the group. And as he understood more about the interplay between the children and himself in relationship to them and to their games, he participated more. I was struck by the fact that one day he actually said a word and touched a playmate at the same time. I don't remember what the word actually was, but it was a relational word--the fact that he touched his playmate and said the word at the same time made me realize that he understood the relationship... Piaget would be a place to start reading.
A contemporary theory of childhood learning is the Constructivist Theory. This theory is based upon the idea that learning is an active process in which children construct their own understanding of the world through their interactions with it. Constructivism is a theory of learning that emphasizes the role of the learner in constructing meaning and understanding. It posits that learning is an active process in which the learner is actively engaged in constructing knowledge, rather than simply receiving it from a teacher or some other source. The learner is seen as the primary agent of learning, and the teacher is seen as a facilitator or guide. The Constructivist Theory focuses on the importance of the learner's prior knowledge and experiences and how these shape the learner's understanding of the subject matter. Constructivists believe that learning is an active process in which the learner actively engages in constructing knowledge, rather than passively receiving it from a teacher or some other source. According to Constructivism, learners actively engage in creating meaning from the information they receive through their interactions with the environment. Constructivists also believe that learners must actively construct their own meaning and understanding of the material they are learning. Constructivism emphasizes the importance of the learner's prior knowledge and experiences and how these shape the learner's understanding of the subject matter. The learner's prior knowledge and experiences are seen as the foundation upon which new learning is built. This theory also emphasizes the importance of feedback and scaffolding in the learning process. Constructivists believe that learners must be provided with meaningful feedback and assistance to ensure that they can successfully construct their own understanding of the material they are learning. The Constructivist Theory of learning is a powerful and influential theory that has been widely adopted in the fields of education and psychology. Constructivist teaching approaches focus on creating a learning environment that encourages active exploration, creative thinking, and collaboration. This theory has been used to develop effective teaching strategies for a variety of educational settings and contexts.
Mega-cognitive is a typo; the word is "meta-cognitive", referring to cognition about your own cognitive processes (e.g. thinking about your current thoughts/feelings)

Watching the TV show "Intervention" increased my awareness of the dangers associated with taking illegal drugs. His awareness of the need for food donations in our own community was increased when he volunteered at a homeless shelter. The student council sponsored trips to the Humane Society during animal abuse awareness week.
self-awareness of it's own different capabilities and knowledge
Epistemology is also known as a theory of knowledge. It is a branch of philosophy dealing with the nature of knowledge; in other words, how it is acquired and used. James Ferrier was a pioneer of this field of study. Epistemology is most related to cognitive psychology. Therefore, research in cognitive psychology would contribute most to our understanding of epistemology.

Knowledge assets are the knowledge regarding markets, products, technologies and organisations, that a business owns or needs to own and which enable its business processes to generate profits, add value, etc.Knowledge management is not only about managing these knowledge assets but managing the processes that act upon the assets. These processes include: developing knowledge; preserving knowledge; using knowledge, and sharing knowledge.Therefore, Knowledge management involves the identification and analysis of available and required knowledge assets and knowledge asset related processes, and the subsequent planning and control of actions to develop both the assets and the processes so as to fulfil organisational objectives. Enterprises are realising how important it is to "know what they know" and be able to make maximum use of the knowledge. This knowledge resides in many different places such as: databases, knowledge bases, filing cabinets and peoples' heads and are distributed right across the enterprise. All too often one part of an enterprise repeats work of another part simply because it is impossible to keep track of, and make use of, knowledge in other parts. Enterprises need to know:what their knowledge assets are;how to manage and make use of these assets to get maximum return.
Cognitive Constructivism - it is a theory of learning suggesting that learners create their own knowledge of the topics they study rather than receiving that knowledge as transmitted to them by some other source. Social Constructivism- is a view of constructivism suggesting that learners first construct knowledge in a social context and then individually internalize it.
Self-subversive thinking refers to challenging and questioning one's own beliefs, assumptions, and cognitive patterns. It involves deliberately seeking to undermine or disrupt one's own established thought processes in order to encourage growth, adaptation, and a more open-minded approach to problem-solving.
Creation is the act,function and process in bringing forth existence of both palpable physical forms and impalpable abstract concepts. Man as a physiological entity is a palpable biophysical form in existence like any biotic entity created through the evolutionary biochemical process into a complex organised body, constituting functional cells. The knowledge/cognition of such a biotic entity makes Man his own creation in identifying himself as a special species apart from other living forms through his logical cognitive processes as scientific facts. Creation as impalpable concept is any idea or belief through cognitive processes in theological , metaphysical or supernatural convictions in the existence of a 'Creator' or a functional creative force that as the origin or agent is responsible for the creation of Man. A paradox is observed in the theological concept of the creation of Man as a biological existence yet rejects the functional 'creator' as in a minimalist theory with non interference between the created and the Creator in creating the cognitive Man.
