Perspective Assumptions Associated pedagogy
The associative perspective Learning as acquiring competence

associations between different concepts.
Learners gain skills by building
progressively complex actions from
component skills.
• Focus on competences
• Routines of organised activity
• Progressive difficulty
• Clear goals and feedback
• Individualised pathways matched to the
individual's prior performance
The constructive perspective
(individual focus)
Learning as achieving understanding
Learners actively construct new ideas by
building and testing hypotheses.
• Interactive environments for knowledge
building
• Activities that encourage experimentation
and discovery of principles
• Support for reflection and evaluation
The constructive perspective
(social focus)
Learning as achieving understanding
Learners actively construct new ideas
through collaborative activities and/or
through dialogue.
• Interactive environments for knowledge
building
• Activities that encourage collaboration and
shared expression of ideas
• Support for reflection, peer review and
evaluation

Disruption
• New teaching promotes:
• Creativity

• But it disrupts
• Personal identity
• Established practice
• Individual tipping points
• Pushing too far can lead to
resistance
• Too little may allow regression
