APPLICATION OF CONSTRUCTIVIST THEORY IN LEARNING IT


Throughout this semester, Madam Sariah has repeatedly stressed on the importance of applying the elements of Constructivist Theory in learning Instructional Technology. It sounds so difficult. Whether we realize it or not, the elements have been gradually implemented within our learning process.


Madam asked us to produce a poster twice so that we will remember all the skills and steps in editing pictures using adobe Photoshop. This kind of repetition helps us to master and to improve. After that, Madam will evaluate our works and give feedback so that we can learn from mistakes we made and produce something better.

       Other than that, each and everyone in the class need to find a partner to work on blog, poster, and short video. Working in group makes it easier because we can learn a lot of knowledge from our partner and critique each other. This group work concept is also beneficial because we can exchange opinions and share the creativity in producing masterpieces. Just like what we, Faeizah and Syahirah have done throughout this semester.

       Madam acts as a facilitator who guides and gives advice throughout our learning. This is to promote the concept of student-centered learning. It enables us to think by our own and independently learning many new things. Last but not least, all the skills and knowledge that we get from this subject can be applied in real life as a future teacher one day.
