    Constructivism is an important teaching method to promote critical thinking in students. It encourages students to actively construct knowledge through practical activities rather than passively receiving information from teachers. Traditional teaching methods are outdated and do not align with the current era. Through constructivism, students can better understand concepts by relating new information to their prior knowledge and experiences. This collaborative work has helped the author gain a deeper understanding of constructivism by analyzing articles on the topic and relating the new information to their existing knowledge. Constructivism makes the learning process easier by applying knowledge in a practical, meaningful way.

    About constructivism in my learning experience

    Constructivism at any school is essential to promote a well learning among students


    and its a great way to encourage critical thinking in students.
    Our educational system has serious difficulties as to quality in education, its
    because of the lack of critical thinking in both students and teachers and we need to
    change this situation. To solve it, we can apply constructivism as a way to get big
    things in our schools.
    Many people think that education is a process in which students learn a set of
    knowledge given by their teachers but them dont even know the difference between
    practical knowledge and theory one. Through constructivism teachers encourage to
    their students different ways to get knowledge and achieve all kind of goals by
    practical activities. In the same way students can understand the best way all the
    content because traditional method doesnt take place here.
    As you know, traditional method of teaching and learning is an old method
    implemented several years ago but nowadays is being avoided because of its poor
    philosophy, its bad procedures. For that those are not the best according to this new
    era of information and communication.
    I am not an English teacher yet but in my learning process I know the importance of
    constructivism to increase knowledge in a significant way. Our previous knowledge
    are an important source of information and the background to the new ones.
    During this learning process which we are in, constructivism is quite important to
    adjust previous knowledge, to adapt them and then apply them. We have to keep in
    mind that every new know knowledge has a concept base in our brain, so this
    learning process become an interest exercise to explore those knowledge and
    expand them through critical thinking and experience.

    I have so many experiences in which constructivism has been the best way to learn
    any new topic. To be honest, this is one of them. Ive studied this topic a couple of
    semesters ago and I understood a little bit about this method, but in this activity I
    read some articles about constructivism then I realized I knew some basic
    statements about it. The next step was to make a conceptualization between what I
    just read and what I knew. Here we can see the main field of action of constructivism,
    its a conceptualization of knowledge that leads this learning process.
    Its clear that there are so many methods to implement in learning and teaching
    process, but we all know constructivism make the matter easier because of its
    practical application in our daily learning experience.
