Introduction
The above image depicts a group of people building a structure. We can use this image as an iconic metaphor for Constructivism. Each learner has a unique learning scaffold constructed from their individual personal history. New learning experiences are incorporated into this framework. Also, we construct our knowledge in social contexts.
