A Constructivist Dialogue.
Strauss, Michael J.
Journal of Humanistic Education and Development, v32 n4 p183-87 Jun 1994
Contends that constructivist teaching pedagogy helps children learn to reason about the world. Notes that children are encouraged to become active learners and to discover meaning in their own world, not only in preformed ideas or definitions of others. Discusses these issues and elaborates on them in form of dialogue. (Author/NB)
