Abstract
Constructivists believe that knowledge can emerge as learners construct meaning from information they receive and from their participation in the learning activities. As a result, learners gain knowledge from their interaction with the learning environment and from interacting among themselves. Learners construct meaning as they engage in critical reflection and evaluation of learning materials in an effort to discover patterns or new dimensions of the emerging information. This implies that learners have the opportunity to develop the skill to absorb the information before them in a way that connects the previously acquired knowledge and the newly discovered information. Constructivist advocates support learning that focuses on the analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of the learning materials and the related information as a means of constructing new knowledge.
