This scientific method is the traditional method in science, but there are others methods in science more constructivists.

Constructivist or not

First, I disagree that the scientific method is not constructivist. If the student is taught so that they apply the scientific method directly themselves, then it is constructivist.

If you wish to explain other methods for teaching science then feel free, but please keep it to other pages. This page should be reserved for explaining The Scientific Method in a constructivist context.--Memracom 13:44, 19 February 2007 (EST)

Constructivist

Hi !¸

Excuse me, I don't want to put your article down.

I read Constructionism article and it explains that constructionism is "a philosophy of education in which children learn by doing and experiencing. They explore and discover instead of being force fed information. "

And with this perspective, the Scientific method that you describe is very constructionist. But constructionism also starts from children conceptions to construct with them their understanding of a phenomenone, to help them to get over understanding hindrance with other children (Vygotsky, Doise & Mugny) or/and environment (Piaget).

We could develop the article of Constructionist learning to explain what can represent constructivist approach. What do you think about of this ?

We could distinguish constructionism, socioconstructionism, constuctivism and socioconstructivism both. What do you think ? Do you talk me what authors you refer to you for constructivist approach for beginning ?

Please, excuse me for my english, I'm not Englis speaker.
