If technology is used effectively as a tool for creative work, students can be more autonomous, collaborative, and reflective than in classrooms where the technology is not present. Constructivist approaches match the way we learn. According to research in education and psychology, constructivism mirrors the way humans learn. Let's think back to our own student days. We probably don't recollect a great workbook exercise, but we probably remember an engaging field trip, a great class project, or an interesting, creative teacher.
Constructivist approaches accommodate individual differences.
Learning is different for each individual. Teaching practices based on constructivism are flexible and varied and therefore accommodate different learning needs. Computers, for their part, offer students individualized learning, allowing them to progress at their own pace. Constructivist approaches prepare learners for the workplace of their future. The shift in the workplace to information jobs that demand skills in analysis and synthesis of information requires changes in both how and what our future workers learn.
