Constructivism


  By Alexandra V.
Theory Menu

   What is it?

   Who is associated?

   Classroom Implications

   In my classroom…
Major Points

   Learning is an active process
   Knowledge is not simply acquired
   Constructed based on
       Personal experiences
       Environmental hypotheses
Major Points

   Consequences:
       Need to focus on the learner, not on
        subject to be taught
       There is no knowledge independent of
        the meaning attributed to experience of
        the learner
Key Figures
   John Dewey
   Maria Montessori
   David A. Kolb
   Władysław Strzemiński
   Heinz von Foerster
   George Kelly
John Dewey
   Believer in the
    “audacity of
    imagination”
   Believed subject
    lessons were used
    to help solve real
    life problems
   Rejected the notion
    of schools relying
    on repetition and
    memorization
Classroom Implications

   For teachers
       Need to rely on new methods of teaching
        and interaction rather than traditional
        lecturing
       Need to be open to conversation and
        interaction, and entrance of new ideas
Classroom Implications

   For students
       Open invitation for creativity and
        innovation
       Need for collaboration and social
        interaction with other students
       Increase of motivation and responsibility
In my classroom…

   Invite students to participate openly
   Create lessons that highlight
    students’ creativity
   Create lessons that involve student
    collaboration
In my classroom 2

   Invite students to form their own
    opinions
   Allow students to analyze material
    being taught
   Create a classroom where the
    students want to learn and offer new
    concepts and ideas
