This week my group has been working on what constructivism is all about. Well it is a philosophical approach to how people learn, basing our learning on our prior experiences. I have learned that with this approach there is not state assessments to testing, children are assessed by critiquing themselves and by guidance from the teacher. Instead of the students learning rote facts they are learning concepts that can be used in their environment. Pretty neat!!!
Check out our information on constructivism.

I wanted to inform you about a site I co-founded last semester called http://www.grouptable.com .
