Discussion
Read the following statements :
Assertion (A) : Teachers who believe in constructivist pedagogy should provide a lot of materials to the children.
Reason (R) : Young children depend solely on verbal instructions and lectures for meaningful learning.
Choose the correct option.
Answer: C
A is true but R is false.
Constructivist teachers provide plenty of concrete materials because children construct knowledge by handling, exploring and experimenting, so A is true.
R is false. Young children do not depend solely on verbal instructions and lectures for meaningful learning; constructivism holds the opposite, that they learn best through activity and experience. Because R is false, the options calling both statements true are wrong.
