Education Reimagined Through Constructivism | Michelle Thompson | TEDxBethanyGlobalUniversity 

I am so surprised to find out that, all those years of thinking that when I become a teacher one day, I will be teaching students awareness of one self's meaning and purpose, and that everything we learn is something that we can do for others and become a great contributor of the society. I have never thought that it falls under constructivism. After watching this video, I feel that I have gained more knowledge and has ignited my passion even more to continue working on my goal, which is to become a teacher. I believe, with this approach of constructivism, I can also integrate this with other pedagogies that would help me design my lessons in visual arts. Thank you.

Thank god you showed a female educator in a world dominated by men.. Maria Montessori. That's the school I went in the early 80s.

This is just so heartening to take in.

I'm learning about constructivism presently and I can see the limitations of the approach for the teacher who is feeling overworked and overwhelmed but that can't be a reason not to adopt this approach wholeheartedly everyday - more teachers, more teaching staff please!

Observation and scientific method. Through experience learns something.

I too am learning about Constructivism from my Masters program. I was surprised to learn that the Constructivist theory is what I have been using for many years as I teach financial literacy and entrepreneurship and have activities (and have special guest instructors) dealing with various aspects of The Arts.

Very Inspiring lecture.

The lecture is very useful for me.

excellent lecture

I want to know more

The German music teacher Michelle was watching must have been using the Orff approach (or maybe Kodaly but most likely Orff).

I like the neck scarf. Very pretty.

This video was not very helpful. For someone with a masters degree in education, she did a poor job teaching this crowed what Constructivism is
