Bonus Blog #3


How are constructivist teaching and traditional science teaching alike? Give some specifics and examples.
Ultimately these are two different styles of teaching and I struggled to find similarities between the two. Constructivist and traditional teaching have a common goal of ensuring the student's success and gaining knowledge from the material that is being presented, but the way the material is presented to the students is completely different. Both methods of teaching also have some form of assessing the students, whether it be through a project or paper with a provided rubric or a test. Both methods work for getting the content to the students, but in my opinion, constructivism teaching has more of an impact with the students that will resonate for years to come.
