Constructivist

is a theory of knowledge ([|epistemology]) [|[1]] that argues that humans generate knowledge and meaning from their experiences. Constructivism is not a specific pedagogy, although it is often confused with [|constructionism], an educational theory developed by [|Seymour Papert], inspired by constructivist and [|experiential learning] ideas of [|Jean Piaget]. Piaget's theory of constructivist learning has had wide ranging impact on [|learning theories] and [|teaching methods] in [|education] and is an underlying theme of many [|education reform] movements. Research support for constructivist teaching techniques has been mixed, with some research supporting these techniques and other research contradicting those results. Social constructivism has been criticized for being a kind of behaviorism, which reduces the individual to his or her social environment.
