This document discusses the constructivist learning theory. It defines constructivism as a theory that explains how adult learners construct knowledge from their experiences. Constructivism synthesizes behavioral and cognitive learning theories. According to constructivism, learning occurs as learners create meaning through experiences and interactions, building on prior knowledge. Factors like realistic settings, relevant tasks, and interactions between learners and their environments influence learning. Memory is a cumulative history constructed from varied sources to understand situations. For transfer to occur, learning experiences must be authentic and meaningful contexts. Constructivism best explains advanced learning in complex domains through effective learning environments.
