Constructivist and Constructionist Approaches to Graduate Teaching in Second Life: Ethical Considerations and Legal Implications
As a growing number of faculty use constructivist and constructionist approaches to teaching in SL, little research exists on the many ethical considerations and legal implications that affect course development. Following the experiences of the instructor and five students, their 12-week journey is documented through interviews, journals, blogs, weekly course activities, SL class dialogs, and ...
متن کاملAdlerian Therapy as a Relational Constructivist Approach
According to R. A. Neimeyer (2000) and Botella and Herrero (2000), an integrative bridge between cognitive constructivist and social constructionist approaches to therapy might be usefully labeled relational constructivism. This article affirms that Adlerian therapy— both explicitly and implicitly—is a relational constructivist approach, and consequently may serve as an integrative bridge betwe...
متن کاملAutomating Construction Work Data-Oriented Parsing and Constructivist Accounts of Language Acquisition
The constructionist approach to language has long proven its merits as a theoretical framework guiding linguistic observations. However, relatively little work has been dedicated to providing a precise, formalized definition of constructions and the mechanisms by means of which they are acquired. In giving an overview of recent work in Data-Oriented Parsing (DOP), we show how the theoretical de...
متن کاملIntegrating constructivist elements into the design of a courseware for enhancing the learning of thermodynamics
A courseware for enhancing the learning of thermodynamics has been designed and developed based on ADDIE instructional design model with the integration of constructivism learning theory and visualization characteristics. The development of the courseware, which follows the guidance of the ADDIE model, has five phases consisting of analysis, design, develop, implement, and evaluate. The constru...
متن کاملFrom Constructionist to Constructivist A.I
The development of artificial intelligence systems has to date been largely one of manual labor. This Constructionist approach to A.I. has resulted in a diverse set of isolated solutions to relatively small problems. Small success stories of putting these pieces together in robotics, for example, has made people optimistic that continuing on this path would lead to artificial general intelligen...
