Overview
Piaget’s theory of cognitive
development
- Information that can be immediately understand
and use cannot be “given”.
- Learners must “construct” their own knowledge.
- Knowledge is built through experience.
Overview
Teacher’s role
- To provide a rich environment for the
spontaneous exploration of the child.
- Encourages students to become active
constructors of their own knowledge
through experiences that encourages
assimilation and accommodation.
General Implications
General Implications
Learning is an active process
- This indicates that direct experience,
making errors, and looking for
solutions are vital for assimilation and
accommodation of information.
General Implications
Learning is an active process
- The way of how information is
presented to the learner is important
- Information introduced served as a
tool rather than just being a fact.
General Implications
Learning should be meaningful
and based on the real world
- Meaning is constructed as learners
interact in meaningful ways with the
world around them.
General Implications
Learning should be meaningful
and based on the real world
- Learners are more likely to learn when
they are involved in meaningful
activities
Types of Instructions
Less emphasis is placed on direct teaching
skills but more on learning in a meaningful
learning.
Examples that offers a wide array of such
opportunities, Technology
