    Constructivist theory is based on the idea that learners actively construct knowledge through experiences and interactions rather than passively receiving information. It views children as active participants in building understanding over developmental stages. Key theorists include Piaget, who argued children construct meaning from their environment through qualitative mental changes, and Vygotsky, who emphasized the role of social and cultural interactions in children incorporating shared knowledge. Constructivism refers to the idea that each learner individually and socially constructs their own understanding of the world through learning experiences rather than having knowledge presented to them.

     LESSON 4: CONSTRUCTIVIST THEORY IN TEACHING


    MTB-MLE

    CONSTRUCTIVIST THEORY is based around the idea that learners are active
    participants in their learning journey; knowledge is constructed based on
    experiences. As events occur, each person reflects on their experience and
    incorporates the new ideas with their prior knowledge.

    Learning Language is an innovative approach in which students construct their


    knowledge through interaction with each other. It is student-centered rather than
    teacher-centered in which the teacher acts as a facilitator (Sharma and Poonam
    2016).

    Pillars of the Constructivist Learning Theory


    Jean Piaget (1896-1980)
    Lev Vygotsky
    - Do not view children as empty vessels
    (tabula rasa).
    - argue that children are performed to learn
    and acquire language as they go through different developmental stages.

    Jean Piaget (1896-1980)


    - argues that children are active learners who
    construct meaning from their environment.
    - is the proponent of Cognitive Development Theory that explains the
    interconnectedness of knowledge acquisition and language acquisition through
    qualitative changes of their mental processes as they develop(Crystal, 1987;
    Schickendanz, 1993;Vasta et al, 1999)
    - He views children as active learners, constructing knowledge over time, as they
    interact with their environment through developmental states.
    As future educators/teachers it is our responsibility to inform our students of what
    the truth is, it is our duty to let them know of what the "real world" is out there. Let
    us not fret and be frightened by this great responsibility for we are not left alone
    in this task,
    there are guide posts that are laid out for us to consider:

    1. Learning is not just pure absorption process of what is transferred directly from
    one vessel to another. Hence, it is a process of learning by doing wherein the
    active engagement of the learner in the process makes it an effective one.

    2. Learning is a web process, as a learner is engaged in learning, in the process


    of it all, implicitly, the learner also learns other concepts or procedures related to
    what is being learned explicitly.

    3. Taking it from John Dewey's reflective activity, learning is a mental process


    that involves actual doing and reflective action. Reflective action gives the learner
    a chance to note the significance and connection of
    the whole process.

    Lev Vygotsky
    Emphasized that private speech, of children talking to themselves, for tunning
    shared knowledge into personal knowledge.
    Vygotsky proposed that children incorporate the speech of others and then use that
    speech to help themselves solve problems.
    Vygotsky's theory implies that cognitive development and the ability to use thought to
    control one's own action require first a mastery of cultural communication systems and
    then learning to use these systems to regulate one's own thought processes. (Slavin
    1997, Crystal 1987).

    Piaget's view of learning and language acquisition is centered on the children's


    changes of logical thinking through stages based on maturation and experience.
    Vygotsky's children view is centered on the role of culture and social interactions of
    children with other children and adults in the environment.
    What is meant by constructivism?
    It is refers to the idea that learner contruct knowledge for themselves each learner
    individually (and socially) constructs meaning as he or she learns.
    We believe that knowledge consists of learning about the real world out there, then we
    endeavor first and foremost to understand that world, organize it in the most rational
    way possibl, and, as teachers, present it to the learner.
    We help the learner understand the world, but we do not ask him to construct his or her
    own world.
    Contructivist theory requires that we turn our attention by 180 degrees and look toward
    all those wonderful, individual living beings the learnerseach whom creates his or her
    own model to explain nature.
