Basic Principle: Constructivism • Cognitive structures within the learner facilitate the process of learning. • All knowledge is constructed through a process of reflective abstraction. • New Knowledge Construction takes place in individual contexts and through social negotiation, collaboration and experience.
Basic Principle: Constructivism • It is easier for learners to understand the full meaning of instructional materials if the materials are relevant to the real-life context. • Assessment of the learning is interwoven with teaching. • Scaffolding is facilitated to help learners perform just beyond the limits of their abilities.
Target Learner Analysis • The motivation of study correlates with personal/occupational development plan. • The goal of learning is not clearly defined. • Grasping simple communication skills is the common desire. • Participation is a conditioned categoryby the classroom atmosphere. • Strong logical thinking intelligence. • Cognitive system in the 1st language has already been developed. • Lack of experiences in 2nd language learning.
