Constructionistivism

Wheh! I just completed the plan for a constructivist learning environment! What a pleasure. Planning a constructivist environment, to me, is as natural as breathing. Although the author did throw th 5-E stuff into the sample, the process was natural and intutitive...Just as ol' Dewey suggested that it should be!

Now I was tempted to go stone cold constructionist, however, creation of a new artifact just didn't really fit the problem solving process I was attempting to plan to teach. Perhaps Mr. Papert will be Ok with the fact that my constructivist plans still include an artifact for learning, even though it was not one of the learner's own making.
