Effective learning CONSTRUCTIVISM
Empoweringis really what teaching is all about. Ironically, though, many teachers act as if empowering students means weakening themselves--their authority as both a classroom disciplinarian and a subject-matter authority. But maybe power is like love: the more you give, the more you get.
IN PRACTISE ? HOW DOES IT WORK ? • New ideas – CONNECT - topreviousknowledge • Modelling of acomplextaskandindicatetolearnersthePROCESShowto do it in order tobecomeindependent • “SCAFFOLDING” tobuild.
