    The 2C - 2I - 1R Pedagogical Approaches: Constructivism Approach

    Uploaded by

    April Claire Pineda Manlangit
    This document discusses the constructivist approach to learning. It explains that constructivism posits that learning is an active process where learners construct new ideas based upon their current and past knowledge. Key theorists who supported constructivism, such as Piaget and Vygotsky, are mentioned. The document then provides examples of how constructivism can be applied in the classroom, including using hands-on learning, valuing student questions, and assessing student learning through observation. Overall, constructivism views learners as active creators of their own knowledge rather than passive receivers of information.

    Constructivism
    It is basically a theory – based on observation and
    scientific study – about how people learn.
    The theory of constructivism is an approach to
    learning suggesting that children must construct their
    own understandings of the world in which they live.
    In comparison to behaviourism, the learner is not a
    blank slate (tabula rasa), but instead brings past
    experiences and cultural factors to a situation and
    new information is constructed from prior knowledge
    Constructivism
    Learners construct their own understanding and
    knowledge of the world through experiencing things
    and reflecting on those experiences.
    Learning is an active, contextualized process of
    constructing knowledge rather than acquiring it.
    Information must be mentally acted on,
    manipulated, and transformed by learners in order
    to have meaning.
    Theorists supporting Constructivism
    Jean Piaget (1896 – 1980) – Stages of Cognitive
    Development
    John Dewey (1859 – 1952) – Progressive Education
    Lev Vygotsky (1896 – 1934) – Social Development
    Theory
    Jerome Bruner (1915 - ) – Discovery Learning Theory
    How Constructivism is Applied in the Classroom?

    1. Teachers should have lessons where “hands – on”


    experimentation, problem solving, logical reasoning,
    and authentic learning are emphasized.

    2. Teachers should generally behave in an


    interactive manner mediating the environment for
    students where student questions are highly valued.
    How is Constructivism is Applied in the
    Classroom?
    3. Teachers should seek the student’s point of view in
    order to understand student learning for use in
    subsequent lessons.

    4. Assessment of student learning should be


    interwoven with teaching and occur through
    teacher observation of students at work and
    through presentations and portfolios.
    Constructivist Approach
    Shows learners to be active in the process of
    constructing meaning and knowledge rather than
    passively receiving information.

    It fosters critical thinking and provides learners with a


    learning environment that helps them make
    connections with their learning.

    Learners are the makers of meaning and


    knowledge.
    Strategies:
    1. Thinking Skills

    2. Activity Based

    3. Direct Instruction


    How a constructivist Classroom
    look like?
    In order to follow the principles behind constructive
    cognitive development, You must incorporate the
    following strategies:
    a. Provide scaffolding to extend student’s zone of
    proximal development.
    b. Involve students in activities which engage the mind as
    well as the hands.
    c. Have students work in groups often.
    d. Initiate group discussions and debates allowing
    students to share their own thoughts and opinions.
    Comparison of Traditional
    Teaching and Constructivism
