Constructivism is a theory of learning that suggests individuals create or construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world through experiencing things and reflecting on those experiences. According to constructivism, learning involves actively constructing new knowledge based on prior knowledge and experiences. Constructivist teachers act as guides to help students test their own understandings rather than directly teaching students. For true understanding to occur, students need time to reflect on new experiences and integrate new knowledge with their prior knowledge.

«In the beginning there was a Word…» Not very light introduction for the essay making to reflect on one more side of business relations. This essay is about types of communication, about gentle management by understanding each other. But is it really necessary to reason about it? We are sure – it’s extra essential!
Why doesn’t one understand another, and another doesn’t understand one? Would we be able to accomplish the project with the Tibetan monks as well as with colleagues from a neighboring office, for example? Sure. It’ll be possible if we create the third «linguistic» conceptual-semantic reality common for both the colleagues from the neighboring office and the Tibetan monks…
In this scientific talk I shall address a marginal topic in Luhmann’s work: that of emotions. Several authors have criticised not only the secondary role emotions play in Luhmann’s theory, but also his out of date (and flawed) description of emotions, since they are undifferentiated visceral activations of the organic system and processed latter by the psychic system (and latter by the social system), or they are collapsed in the symbiotic mechanisms that coordinate the relation between human bodies and social systems. My aim here is to review some elements established in the scientific literature of emotions, so we can go beyond the vague and narrow description of emotions present in Luhmann’s account, although I shall be faithful to his broader theoretical commitments. My proposal is that emotions can be understood as an instance of structural coupling among organic, psychic and social systems. Specifically, I maintain that emotions represent a threshold domain in which the normative expectations of social systems are bundled together with states of consciousness, in the form of beliefs that affirm individuals are entitled to have the right emotion in some interaction system, and the consequent bodily processes. To advance my proposal, I will focus on some of emotions and their relation to moral and legal norms. I will also tackle one of the most important body substrata of emotions: the human face.

Constructivism a Methodical Learning ApproachRajeev Ranjan
Constructivism is a valid teaching strategy that employs five basic “Es” that is ‘engagement’, ‘exploration’, ‘explanation’, ‘elaboration’, and ‘evaluation’. Educators prime duty to facilitate learning opportunities for students. In fact, a great facilitator who handles the 21st century global learners should be wise enough to facilitates learning in the class considering the pressure of 21st century learner’s smartness, who operates very sophisticated software and apps but least interested in classroom learning.
Constructivism Learning Theory: A Paradigm for Teaching and Learningiosrjce
Constructivism represents one of the big ideas in education. Its implications for how teachers teach
and learn to teach are enormous. If our efforts in reforming education for all students are to succeed, then we
must focus on students. To date, a focus on student-centered learning may well be the most important
contribution of constructivism. This article, therefore, discusses constructivism learning theory as a paradigm
for teaching and learning. Constructivism is a learning theory found in psychology which explains how people
might acquire knowledge and learn. It therefore has direct application to education. The theory suggests that
humans construct knowledge and meaning from their experiences. Conceptual understanding of the theory was
discussed as well as basic characteristics of constructivists learning environment. Seven pedagogical goals of
constructivist learning environments and six benefits of constructivism were outlined in this article. Significant
differences between traditional classroom and constructivist classroom were spelt out in a tabular form.
Furthermore,principles of constructivism and several implications of constructivism for teaching and
learningwere reviewed. The study, therefore, concluded that teachers need to reflect on their practice in order
to apply these ideas to their work and that constructivist teachers encourage students to constantly assess how
the activity is helping them gain understanding
ABSTRACT : Teaching and learning is an infinite process. The process takes change by the time as according to the need of learner himself and societal needs. Now-a-days there is a vogue of using experiences in learning. The approach which is related to using experiences and correlate them with ones daily life is known as constructivism. Constructivist learning is based on students’ active participation in problem solving and critical thinking. It is affected by many school of ideas like Pragmatism, Existentialism and Reconstructionism with minor differences. It is a natural process of teaching and learning where teacher, learner, curriculum and assessment all revolves round the reality. It affects learners, social, psychological and emotional aspects to full extent. It is helpful in learning without burden. The purpose of this approach is to learn and teach happily and practically.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
