Contextual Learning is based on a constructivist theory of teaching and learning. Learning takes place when teachers are able to present information in a way that students are able to construct meaning based on their own experiences. Contextual learning experiences include internships, service learning, and study abroad programs, among others.〔http://www.nsee.org〕 Contextual learning has the following characteristics: * emphasizing problem solving * recognizing that teaching and learning need to occur in multiple contexts * assisting students in learning how to monitor their learning and thereby become self-regulated learners * anchoring teaching in the diverse life context of students * encouraging students to learn from each other * employing authentic assessment ==Key elements== Current perspectives on what it means for learning to be contextualized include * situated cognition- all learning is applied knowledge * social cognition- intrapersonal constructs * distributed cognition- constructs that are continually shaped by other people and things outside the individual Constructivist learning theory maintains that learning is a process of constructing meaning from experience〔http://www.eric.ed.gov/PDFS/ED448304.pdf〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Contextual learning」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
