2 A Unisa mathematics student teacher argued with his Teaching Practice mentor that “It is easier
for a teacher to teach using rote learning and constructivism does not work in the real
classroom setting”. Reflect on what this statement means for you as a Unisa student teacher.

Question 1



The constructivist theory is based on the idea that learners are active participants in their
learning journey; knowledge is constructed based on experiences. As events occur, each
person reflects on their experience and incorporates the new ideas with their prior
knowledge. Learners develop schemas to organize acquired knowledge. This model was
entrenched in learning theories by Dewey.

, The theory of constructivist learning is vital to understanding how students learn. The idea
that students actively construct knowledge is central to constructivism. Students add (or
build) their new experiences on top of their current foundation of understanding. As stated
by Woolfolk (1993) “learning is active mental work, not passive reception of teaching”.
As an educator, it is important to understand the theory of constructivist learning. Each
student that enters your classroom has a unique perspective on life that has been created
by their unique experiences. This will impact their learning. If the basis of the constructivist
theory states that students construct new knowledge on what they have already had, the
entry point of their learning journey is of utmost importance. Learning theories are as
valuable as credentials to educators; it is important to understand what will affect the
learning journey of your students.
