Perceiving knowledge
Learning style
Learning is that which involves students applying knowledge through practical assignments and using
group work..
As much as they may differ, learning is an individual and generative process that student uses to
construct meaning during learning and problem solving.

There are also using self- questionnaire and feedback tool, reflexivity and a set of reflective
activities to assess students’ learning and development within the constructivism approaches.

socialized persons.. Students are characterized by the role of the knowledge constructors and
learners in their own learning processes; purposefully promoting autonomy and personal interest in
learning pursuits.

Summary
Two out of three of these ideologies, namely progressivism and constructivism, places the student
squarely in the process of learning. However, while progressivism is more about creativity and student
work taking place in the context of the real world, constructivism is more about an individual learner’s
mental process as he or she constructs new information. While Progressivism is related to the worlds
experience, constructivism is associated with critical, individual interfacing with concepts. The two
philosophies encourage an ‘appreciable’ as well as an ‘apprehensible’ learning process and experience
but put different accentuate on how the students learn and use the content or knowledge.
