it is defined as a school of psychology that treats objective evidence of behavior ( such as measured responses to stimuli) as the sole focus of its research and the sole foundation of its theory, with no regard for subjective awareness. 
EXAMPLE FROM THE FILM:
Ms Gruwell's class was initially quite unorganized and chaotic.
She was shocked to come across students who were completely unmotivated and out of control. In order to overcome their behavior, she used an icebreaker game to help the students see how similar they are despite their distinct backgrounds.

This educational philosophy emphasizes the importance of students testing ideas through active experimentation. Learning is rooted in the questions that learners have as a result of their experiences in the world.
EXAMPLE FROM THE FILM:
Erin Gruwell engaged her students by having them stand up instead of lecturing. She placed a line of duck tape on the ground and asked them to stand a few metre's behind it. She would ask a number of questions, and if they were applicable to students, they would be requested to stand on the line. She made her lesson interesting and fun so that her students were interested.

Constructivism is the theory that states that rather than passively absorbing information, children build knowledge. People build their own representations of the world and incorporate new information into their pre-existing knowledge as they experience it and reflect on it.
EXAMPLE IN THE FILM:
Writing a poem from scratch is required for the assignment, which Mr. Keating assigns to the class. The poem can be about anything the learners like.]]> 2022-08-01 21:51:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mbalinthabiseng7/ut7lbsx2v1eseuvo/wish/2253011740 RELEVANCE OF THE PHILOSOPHIES mbalinthabiseng7 https://padlet.com/mbalinthabiseng7/ut7lbsx2v1eseuvo/wish/2253628225 The philosophies approaches and methods are not relavant to SA context because most of the township schools have shortages of study materials which limits the teachers into doing anything]]> 2022-08-02 19:31:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mbalinthabiseng7/ut7lbsx2v1eseuvo/wish/2253628225 mbalinthabiseng7 https://padlet.com/mbalinthabiseng7/ut7lbsx2v1eseuvo/wish/2253631731 Example from the film:
