Social Constructivist ApproachesThis week’s readings have me visualize students that are learning from the sidelines “sitting on the bench” without getting to “play” or to learn actively by working with their team. If we consider that the social constructivism approach illustrates the importance of working together to develop understand but also to create meaning and define reality by their interactions. Moreover, it is important for students to develop their own ability to construct their own understanding by interacting with others. For instance, I have had the opportunity to work with others that had different experiences, point of view and cultural background and by opening my mind to their realities. In turn, this has allowed me to grow and improve both personally and professionally. References: Orey, M. (2010). Emerging perspectives on learning, teaching and technology. Global Text.
