DOWNLOAD EBOOKConstructivism's basic premise - that individuals and groups are shaped by their world but can also change it - may seem intuitively true. Yet this process-oriented approach can be more difficult to apply than structural or rational choice frameworks. Based on their own experiences and exemplars from the IR literature, well-known authors Audie Klotz and Cecelia Lynch lay out concepts and tools for anyone seeking to apply the constructivist approach in research. Written in jargon-free prose and relevant across the social sciences, this book is essential for anyone trying to sort out appropriate methods for empirical research.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhile many people talk about the Constructivist philosophy, there has not been a publication that provides a detailed description of what a Constructivist classroom sounds like and looks like. This book fills that void by examining the philosophy, translating it into teaching strategies, and providing over forty examples. These examples come from the elementary level up to and including the collegiate level, and include all content areas. These examples show how the Constructivist educator uses the linguistic mode, the visual mode, and the kinesthetic mode to create a class environment in which the Constructivist philosophy flourishes. Examples of student work are provided; the book also includes chapters on note-taking, Problem-Based Learning (PBL), action research, and other Constructivist resources. Written in user-friendly form, this book presents a concrete and step by step approach for translating the Constructivist philosophy into classroom practice. This book is intended for every Constructivist researcher, practitioner, and teacher-educator. The researcher and teacher-educator will benefit from topics such as the history of Constructivist thought, the principles of Constructivism and action research. This book is more than a list of recipes, and this will be beneficial to the practitioner. Starting with the principles of Constructivism, and bridging to four basic teaching strategies, the practitioner is guided on how to use different learning modes and “meta-strategies” to create a true Constructivist practice. An educator’s life is made up of one’s philosophy, teaching principles, daily strategies, resources, and research tools. This book provides an in-depth look, from the Constructivist perspective, at each one of these components. In every sense of the word, this book is truly “comprehensive.”

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis comprehensive, yet concise, book provides a practical pre-service training program across all secondary subjects by grounding a constructivist approach in seven discrete instructional areas. This groundbreaking book is the only teacher education text with components that shift the focus from a teacher-centered to a student-centered context-while infusing a key component of successful active student learning. Engaged Minds provides strategies with specific examples for moving through lower levels of concrete information and applications to the higher, more abstract, levels of synthesis and evaluation. This dynamic book takes a roll-up-your-sleeves approach-yet constructivist ideology permeates this rigorous, accessible and imaginative training program. For teachers of secondary education.

It develops the consciousness among' the individuals. Social Science is a subject which broadens the horizon of an individual and develops various skills and provides opportunity for the professional growth of an individual. Social Science has become a great value in the present day; Social Science has spread its net on all over the fields of life. Before the days of early printing when books were not easily available, the knowledge was imparted by the teachers from their own store by lecturing and discussion. With the advancement of educational technology and educational research the educationists evolved many teaching skills and techniques, which resulted in effective teaching. Social Science is such a subject which includes the skills, techniques, Methods, some time laboratory experiments, field study and so on. The teachers are required to teach in such a way that the students should learn better, understand well and also feel interested while learning. Hence in every school, there is need for Social Science laboratory to do simple demonstration and activities to develop scientific attitude, creativity, interest and attitude to get knowledge of handling equipment, models, specimens etc and to practice skills. Through practical knowledge a child learns better and understands the concepts clearly. Hence, activity based method of teaching is very essential to develop scientific and Critical Knowledge among the students at the secondary level.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFirst published in 1994. Leading scholars in science education from eight countries on four continents and ex-pert practising science teachers (primary and secondary) wrote about the teaching and learning of particular science content or skills, and hence how different science content requires different sorts of teaching and learning. Having shared the papers, they then met to discuss them and subsequently revised them. The result is a coherent set of chapters that share valuable insights about the teaching and learning of science. Some chapters consider the detail of specific topics (e.g. floating and sinking, soil and chemical change), some describe innovative procedures, others provide powerful theory. Together they provide a comprehensive analysis of constructivist learning and teaching implications.
