I would call Bob Sciamanda's essay a very good explanation of basicwhat
constructivist philosophy. When applied to education it recognizes that
students construct their versions of reality based up on experience and
they learn in class. Along with this idea is the basic recognition thatattempt to
concepts are constructed rather than being communicated. One can
communicate them, but what the student actually does is use theteacher's
messages as part (often a very small part) of the information used to
construct the ideas.
