constructivism
Constructivism is a philosophical, psychological, and educational theory which posits that individuals construct their own understanding and knowledge of the world via their experiences and personal reflections. It emphasizes the active role of learners in creating, understanding and interpreting information, rather than simply absorbing it passively. The theory suggests that learning is more effective when students actively engage, experiment and analyze rather than just memorizing facts.

Constructivism
Constructivism was an artistic and architectural philosophy that originated in Russia beginning in 1919, which was a rejection of the idea of autonomous art. The movement was in favour of art as a practice for social purposes. Constructivism had a great effect on modern art movements of the 20th century, influencing major trends such as Bauhaus and De Stijl movement. Its influence was pervasive, with major impacts upon architecture, graphic and industrial design, theatre, film, dance, fashion and to some extent music.
