Constructivism Continuum Discussion Board

For the Module 3 Discussion, reflect on the following definitions of constructivism presented by Ernst von Glasersfeld: Knowledge is not passively received either through the senses or by way of communication, but is actively built up by the cognizing subject. The function of cognition is adaptive and serves the subject’s organization of the experiential world, not the discovery of an objective ontological reality.

In your own words, what does Dr. von Glasersfeld mean? What implications does this interpretation of constructivism have for teaching and learning within the realm of sports? (Do these implications apply across the board, regardless of whether the play is interscholastic, collegiate or professional level?)

Support your discussion with a 150-word substantive-content post supported by two appropriate, relevant references. Respond to or evaluate three peer postings with at least a 125-word response, which will allow you and your peers to generate creative ideas and concepts for your Case Assignment and SLP. In this forum, you need to post a minimum of four postings to receive the full credit. Each forum requires an initial input and three peer replies/critiques. (A minimum of four forum posts are required.)
