What is Constructivism? Basically a theory, based on observation & scientific study about how people learn. While when it comes to the classroom it means encouraging students to use different techniques to create more knowledge on their topic. Teachers will see where their students stand with their knowledge of the topic and at the end of the lesson ask questions to help build their knowledge. The foundational theorists for constructivism would include John Dewey, Bruner, Piaget, and Vygotsky. Dewey has always been shown as the philosophical founder of constructivism. While Bruner & Piaget are known as the chief theorists among cognitive constructivists.

I learn a lot about flipped classroom. This teaching style has many pros and cons to it. Flipped classroom changes the traditional setting into delivering instructions online outside of class and moving homework into the classroom. Flipped classroom is transforming the world education one step at a time. It increases availability of online video. Students who miss class can still retain the lesson that day. Educational learning gives the chance for activity learning. The cons on flipped classroom are it can only be used for certain subjects. The teacher has to video the content. It takes a lot of time and the teachers needs to have the knowledge of technology. The best way to go about flipped classroom is for a teachers to creates a video for three to five minutes long. The students will watch it at home if they have internet. They will learn and comprehend the materials. This will give them the chance to come into class the next day, while being able do an activity for that lesson. Flipped classroom also students to understand the content on there on task while having to do work and activity's during class.
