teaching?
Constructivist Theory
Argument 1--Critical/Creative Thinking
• “What is learned cannot be separated from the context it is learned in” – What does this mean for us as educators?
Argument 2--Deepens Understanding• Most effective strategies for retention:
– Focus on relationality • compare and contrast
– Examples and Non-Examples– Reconceptualization
• metaphor/ simile
– Information is stored both linguistically and non-linguistically.
• Create verbal and non-verbal representations of new words for best retention.
• Understanding relationships between two subjects matches how the brain holds information. We categorize what we know. Relationality embedded in instruction delivery helps solidify new information with schema.
– telling versus showing/experiencing.
Schema Example: Learning Through Arts Integration
• What is schema?
• Schema Demonstration. – integrates movement/dance/drama
