Constructivism in the classroom
• The knowledge resides within the learners and we cannot teach precise representations of the “truth.”
• Students construct learning.

Constructivism in the classroom
• Student-Centered approach: Students construct their own understanding of content, they develop a personal feeling that the knowledge is their own.
• Constructivism is grounded on the theory developed by John Dewey.
• Prior to him, the American education system was concerned with the acquisition of knowledge. According to Dewey’s theory students should learn by doing.

Constructivism in the Classroom
• Vygotsky also played a significant role in the development of constructivism. According to his theory, students should participate in social interaction as they work on meaningful interaction tasks.

The three phase approach to lesson planning
1. Planning: Deciding what you want your students to learn, understand and appreciate.
Tip: If you plan carefully and thoroughly your feelings of uncertainty can be significantly reduced before you enter the room.
2. Implementing: Having determined a goal and selected the most appropriate means to reach that goal, a teacher then implements that strategy. Ask: How will I help my students reach these goals?Tip: The success of this phase depends on clear goals.
3. Assessing: The teacher attempts to gather information to determine if and what kind of learning has occurred. The teacher asks: How will I determine the if the students knew, understood and reached their goal?
