CONSTRUCTIVE LEARNING THEORY
According to Borich and
Tombari’s (1997, as cited in Yunus , Razali
& Jantan ,(2011) ,constructivism is an approach where the learners try and
make sense of what is being learned by making connections or relationships
among the knowledge and ideas that are being taught. This approach involves
and encourages learner to experience and participate actively in the learning
process through social interactions. By doing this, the new skills
and concepts are combined or integrated into the existing conceptions to make
meaning after which the learner applies it in a new
context.
Hence, teachers should encourage students to participate
actively in the activities, discover things for themselves to enhance their
learning.
