    The document outlines the constructivist approach to learning, which emphasizes that learners are active, social, and creative. It involves hands-on activities, explorations, visits, and research conducted within a community. Lessons focus on big ideas rather than bits of information. Instruction uses guided inquiry where students develop the procedures and outcomes with teacher guidance on the problem and materials. Assessment evaluates the product and process, and involves conversational feedback between students and teachers.
