I find this piece of reading very useful as I've that constructivism is a learning process that is computer aided and controlled by the teacher. In other words, I think it means student-centred learning and not the traditional teacher talking in front of the class. This theory is much more student independant of learning at their own pace.Students who finds this approach more motivating will explore more and learn more while slower learners are able to be identified by their teacher and perhaps teachers can pay more attention to these kids. However, I feel its still a new approach and some students might not understand why teachers are implementing this as most teachers are still using the traditional spoon-feeding approach.
There are 6 principles of constructivist theories:
1. Before a lesson begin, the teacher must be able to connect the lesson to the prior knowledge of the students just to get them engaged and look forward to participate. I also feel that it's also important as the students feel that the particular topic will be very relevant to them and thus they are more motivated.
2. The students get information and process information to fit their understanding, if not make new understanding. Therefore, what individual A receives and process might be different from individual B receives and process althought the source is the same.
3. Learning is not restricted or limited to classrooms and books. Teachers should create more opportunities for students to experience and so learn more through various different ways. That's because the more different ways of knowledge come (presentations, field trip) the more engaged students become.
4. information is relevant to prior knowldege, it tends to be processed more easily.
5. Lessons learnt must be reflected.
6.discussion among students is important as they are able to clear their doubts and voice out thiei oppinions and exchange ideas.
Therefore, when inculding ICT into lesson plans, it's best to inculde the principles mentioned for better engaged student-centred learning.
