Toward a Constructivist Approach to Web-based Instruction in Software Engineering
Software engineering education today faces two challenges. One challenge comes from the changing perceptions of what learning is about, a shift from objectivist learning which views learning as the transmission of knowledge from the teacher to the learner to constructivist learning which regards learning less as the product of transmission than a process of active construction. The second chall...
متن کاملA Rule Based Approach to teach Mathematics using Animation

متن کاملA social constructivist approach to computer-mediated instruction
A computer-mediated teaching system, called computer-aided personalized system of instruction (CAPSI), has been developed that incorporates a social constructivist approach. This educational philosophy maintains that human learning occurs primarily through a socially interactive process. In CAPSI, course material is divided into study units, and the instructor prepares study questions on each u...
متن کاملA Constructivist Approach to Communication Skills Instruction in Computer Science
From the social constructivist perspective of education, learning is best achieved when students face complex, real world problems in which there are no clear answers. Faced with a sizable common goal, students work collaboratively towards outcomes and maintain ownership over key decisions. The role of staff is that of facilitators whose role is to challenge learners to explore multiple aspects...
