Which of the following is not advocated in a socio-constructivist classroom based on Lev Vygotskian constructs?
Constructivism is centered on the idea that human knowledge and learning are actively constructed by the learner, not passively received from the environment. Constructivist views learning as the result of mental construction. It is created or constructed by the experiencing individual. It is not impersonal or absolute.Socio-constructivism focuses on the collaborative nature of learning. Knowledge develops from how people interact with each other, their culture, and society at large. In Socio-constructivist classroom students rely on others to help create their building blocks, and learning from others helps them construct their own knowledge and reality. Characteristics of socio-constructivist classrooms based on Lev Vygotskian constructs:Connect learning with everyday contexts. Where possible, organize courses around problems, of local interest and impact, which have been identified by students. Elicit students existing ideas, including any alternative conceptions. Encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning, and this includes reflecting on their own thinking and learning processesLearning is not exam-oriented, teachers employ formative assessment frequently to assess the knowledge and changes in the student.Use a variety of assessment techniques, including authentic assessment which is conducted while students are engaged in non-contrived activities like practical work or other real-life situations.Plan for the fact that, in addition to having different prior experiences, students will also have different preferred learning and working styles and learn at different rates. Socio-constructivist classroom opposes the rote learning, learning is done by the questions based on critical thinking, creative activities, experimental based learning,So we can conclude that Learning-for-exam is not advocated in a socio-constructivist classroom based on Lev Vygotskian constructs.?Additional Information Lev Vygotsky is a Russian Psychologist who proposed the theory of Socio-cultural development and argues that communication is the driving force behind speech in both adults and children.
