WHAT IS IT? “All knowledge is constructed from the base of prior knowledge” (Allison, Barrett, 2000). A teaching that is based on the belief that learning occurs when individuals are actively involved, as apposed to passively receiving information Involves critical thinking thus creating more motivated and independent learners Information gained based on personal experiences, and reflection
