Description
The constructivist view of education, though it may be superior to the behaviorist view in some settings, may not be the best way to educate most community college students. These students, a significant number of whom are at a disadvantage in the college classroom as a result of negative past classroom experiences, tow levels of academic achievement, and/or poor academic self-esteem, may not benefit from the constructivist models of problem-based, or active. learning.
