Multimodal Literacies MOOC’s Updates

Reading practices

Reading is the key to open new knowledge that will eventually became guides and references for the future Generation. Being literate and continuing learning is what makes us different from each others capacity to understand and connect. Reading books, Journals, studies or even magazines will help our brain to exercise and absorb all new information and transmit it to a data that can be used as a tool or as an example for future reference. 

onstructivist teaching is based on the belief that learning occurs as learners are actively involved in a process of meaning and knowledge construction rather than passively receiving information. Learners are the makers of meaning and knowledge. Constructivist teaching fosters critical thinking and creates motivated and independent learners.

This report examines constructivist teaching and learning by looking at the distinctive features of a constructivist programme, the qualities of a constructivist teacher, and the organization of a constructivist classroom. A constructivist teacher and classroom differ from a traditional classroom in a number of ways: the learners are interactive and student-centered; and the teacher facilitates a process of learning in which students are encouraged to be responsible and autonomous.
