The Internet, Internet Curriculum Materials, and Constructivist Learning Theory.
Tillman, Mike
This paper synthesizes issues related to the Internet, Internet curriculum materials (i.e., any type of teaching material or activity that can be incorporated into the K-12 curriculum and is available on the Internet), and constructivist learning theory; it explores the use of the Internet as a constructivist environment for learning and the ramifications of technology infused constructivism. Topics discussed include: the unfiltered nature of Internet curriculum materials; categorization of Internet curriculum materials; weaknesses, strengths, and unique aspects of Internet curriculum materials; possible review and evaluation standards for Internet curriculum materials; teacher resistance to new technology; alteration of student and teacher roles; constructivist learning theory; technology infused constructivism; and Internet curriculum materials in constructivist and objectivist classrooms.
