Connaissance et constructivismes.
•Dewey
–« knowledge emerges only from a situation in which learners have to draw it
out of experiences that have meaning to them »
•Piaget « cognitive oriented constructivism »
–«to understand is to discover, or reconstruct by rediscovery … »
•Vygotsky « socially oriented constructivism » ou constructionisme.
–Les outils psychologiques : « le language n ’exprime pas la pensée, il la
réalise ».
–« language can no longer be thought of as a means that conveys knowledge,
but as a tool for the direction of the student ’s own cognitive constructing »
(Glasersfeld)
–co-constructionisme : « there is an active child , an active environment and a
third factor = cultural mediation. (Cole, Wertsch).
