The theory states that learners (our students) construct knowledge rather than passively absorb information

Students make their own inferences of the knowledge they are presented with to incorporate new information into their pre-existing schemas.

learning must be done in a meaningful and emotional way

an evidence-based hypothesis about the specific goals you intend to accomplish during the school year

each student has a unique set of goals, so they have unique plans for lessons and learning

the teacher must be very involved in the lessons so that they know how to construct information for each child, and grade based on their goals not the curve/average

immediate and clear learning or understanding that takes place without overt trial-and-error testing

• students recognize relationships or make associations between objects of actions that help solve new problems

immediate and clear learning or understanding that takes place without overt trial-and-error testing

helps by making recognizable relationships while solving problems

learning is a cognitive experience, not behavioral or observational

the space between what a learner can do without assistance and what a student can do with guidance or in collaboration with more capable peers.

With the perfect balance of assistance and a lack thereof, students can be pushed in a comfortable amount that makes their minds expand and learn.

Demonstrates the requisite behaviors or ideal way of acting within a learning environment

In short, the teacher should show students through action and words the way the activities and learning should take place

This is an inquiry-based learning method that takes a constructivist approach to education, where students are encouraged to construct their own knowledge through a self-directed learning process.

An example is making their own example alongside yours

Students must organize and categorize the information they are learning in addition to this process

Takes place in a classroom where a certain subject will be discussed by the teacher in the class and the students will analyze it in order to better grasp the lesson being discussed.

This can be understood through the example: "S-A-T, blending SAT".

• they must understand the individual sounds before they can grasp the whole topic

Reception is what the first year of education in some places is called because it is the breakdown of material in that way.

Also referred to as expository because it is an exploration deep within the material before the greater subject is taught specifically

Has five key aspects

• content (actual and processed discovery through delivery)

• team problem solving

• hands-on learning

• reflection and connection

• learner accountability

This is a self-directed learning process in which they must apply their own efforts and understandings in order to expand what they already know.

This is also known as instructionless learning because the teacher does not direct what they learn but rather creates a space for their own learning to occur

there are four stages of insight learning

• preparation

• incubation

• insight

• verification
