Correct Answer - Option 2 : I, II and III
In the constructive classroom, students work primarily in groups where learning and knowledge are interactive and dynamic. One cannot find it in a traditional classroom in which students work alone. In that situation, learning takes place through repeated practice and the students mostly depend on the textbook. But in constructivist classroom students conduct experiments and do some projects work. They start the work individually but come together in a group to discuss the results. They also go outside the classroom to observe something in the school garden or in a museum. After recording observation they come with their individual observations which they discuss in the group. Group discussions play a very important role. The activities are based on debate, intellectual participation and drawing conclusion.
- If one observes a constructivist classroom she/he shall see the following things.
- The students are actively involved in learning.
- The environment is democratic.
- The activities are interactive and student-centred.
- The teacher facilitates a process of learning in which the students are encouraged to do the task actively as responsible members.
- Opinion, ideas given by the students are accepted and honoured.
- Students make meaning from their own experience.
- Process is as important as product
- Focus is on learning, not teaching.
Hence, all statements regarding constructivist approach for teaching-learning process are correct.
