I am wondering how to apply Vygotsky's ZPD in an online forum. Peer modeling is such a key part of this. I wonder how that will look for TK/Ks on Zoom.

It feels like cosntructivism more naturally arises in our lessons that are storyline, project-based arts-integrated. and science and social science. I want to be more intentional this year in ensuring inquiry and constructivism are more strongly leading instruction in ELA and math as well.

They talk about note taking and I'm just curious as to how that would look like with constructivism. Would it be more of a brainstorm/essay since they are thinking for themselves vs jotting down what the teacher is saying

I can use it when it comes to how I will execute a lesson and get the students involved

When teaching / encouraging note taking during research projects, it'll be helpful to provide a skeleton for students to use to guide them as they figure out their own note taking process and what makes sense for them.

# data[].attributes.body
While constructivism is experience based, there are times where you must teach the basics in order to know how to do a certain problem. (Referring to the addition example)

# data[].attributes.body
Note taking allows students to actively process their learnings and enhances retainment. Studies have shown that providing them a skeletal of topics / sub-topics is best practices versus giving them notes or full text.

What are some strategies or steps to take to help prepare students, specifically those who need much more support both academically and social/emotionally, for a constructivist learning environment?

# data[].attributes.body
My role is to think less..manage more (singing Hamilton in my head right now lol)
Thinking less about content and more on management with materials and the world around them

Darcy- I read about the history of constructivism. In considering Vygotsky's research, I am thinking about how to apply Zone of Proximal Development in a distance learning setting.

I can use it when it the a person/child is willingly to learn and explore deeper explanations.

when taking notes have the students write using their own words and experiences!

# data[].attributes.body
When planning lessons, especially during distance learning, considering more how the students will experience/engage will better guide my plans.

# data[].attributes.body
are there different methods of constructivism that can be used to provide social emotional learning?

# data[].attributes.body
"A Constructivist teacher thinks less about content and more about how to manage a class environment in which the learner interacts with materials and the world around him."

Focus should be placed more on student experience/relationship with learning the content rather than the content itself.

# data[].attributes.body
practice constructivism to deal with behavioral support (ex. taking the time to learn about the individual and figure out methods that work best for them)

# data[].attributes.body
Learning involves active restructuring of how one thinks.

# data[].attributes.body
Practicing constructivism can promote problem solving, reflection, and multiple perspectives. By doing this, it opens up the road to all the possibilities of a topic/thought.

I know constructivism is very student led/driven. Teachers are more facilitators of learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Student centered instruction; encourages multiple perspectives and multiple ways of doing things; teacher is facilitator rather than authority figure; problem based learning; discussion based;

What I Know about Constructivism is that it's a learning theory based on meaning and knowledge, more critical thinking, versus only receiving information.
