A social-constructivist perspective views children
Constructivism is centered on the idea that human knowledge and learning are actively constructed by the learner, not passively received from the environment.Social constructivism is founded on the thesis that social processes are central to learning and cognitive development. It regards knowledge as a social construct and prioritizes the social aspects of learning and cognitive development. Some of these social aspects are language, culture, everyday practices, material objects, interpersonal interaction, peer interaction, tools, and symbols. Views of Socio-constructivism perspectives:Knowledge is not a thing that exists out there but is personally and socially constructed.Knowledge construction rather than knowledge reproduction is emphasized. Learners are purposive, active, and responsible for their own learning. They bring their prior experiences and knowledge to all learning situations. The process of learning is regarded as active in the sense that it entails activity on the part of the learner. A curriculum is not a given that is to be learned; but a schedule of learning tasks, materials, and resources by virtue of which learners construct their knowledge.So Option (3) is the correct answer.HintKnowledge in socio-constructivist purpose is not preplanned by heredity, it is gained through the interaction with people, engaging in social aspects.Learners are actively participated in the social constructivist environment, not passively.Learners should be fully dependent on nature, society, and culture.Additional Information Lev Vygotsky explains the role of society in his theory of socio-cultural development.According to Lev Vygotsky, the development of children depends on three factors.Social interaction- Society plays an important role in the development and knowledge gained by the child.Language- Language development in a child should be done by the environment, engagement in family, etc.Culture - culture plays an important role in the development of a child, a child behaves as same as they learn from their culture, society, and environment.
