El modelo pedagógico constructivista: teorías y prácticas para la educación básica

Abstract

The constructivist pedagogical model enables a better understanding of how knowledge is generated in the learner, while recognizing the student as the main actor in the teaching and learning process and exposes the different possibilities of creating more meaningful learning. Despite its conceptual development and its acceptance in the pedagogical discourse, it would seem that it does not reach the daily classroom practices, or at least not at the levels we would expect. For this reason, the purpose of this monographic work is to demonstrate bibliographically the contributions of the constructivist pedagogical model in education, in order to project an alternative proposal for teaching and learning in the field of basic education. In order to carry out the proposed objective, a documentary and bibliographic research was carried out, selecting and compiling information by means of critical and analytical reading of different documents and bibliographic materials. Subsequent to this process, summary cards were made in order to analyze and compare the information found and thus be able to develop each of the chapters. Therefore, this monographic work made it possible to know the contributions and implications of a constructivist pedagogical methodology in the educational field, considering the student as a protagonist in the teaching and learning process and as his own constructor of his knowledge through the compilation of previous knowledge and experiences.
