Constructivism

Group`s aim: that our classmates learn who the energy is suministred to a led and that no just a battery can suminist energy

Description: the activity consist in give some materials, including a motor and a LED, then, ask the LED light, once students have achieved that we will question why the motor can light the LED and after we will help them so taht they can construct the knowlwdge which will be the reason of why a motor can turn on a LED.

Instructions:

1) Deliver 3 cables, one motor, one LED and  aluminum

2) Ask to choose materials that they think can turn the LED

3) Ask them to explain why they believe that the material they have chosen, can turn on the LED.

4) Once they have told us, tell them to use the material and try turning on the LED

6) If they can’t turn on the led explain them why

5) If the LED lights up tell them to complete their conclusion on why it lights up with the material they have chosen

 • The motor is the only material that can turn on the LED.

The method by which our classmates are learning is constructivism because they are absorbing knowledge throught the experience. 

Before can have a conclussion they needed to do it, relate it to what they have experienced before and linking that with what they are experimenting in that moment building new knowledge.
