In adult teaching, especially in corporate training, how to use constructivist teaching ideas for teaching design? The core concept of constructivist attention can be summarized and extracted into the following key points:

Constructivism is a series of teaching behaviors such as teaching design, curriculum development and implementation from the perspective of students, focusing on students. What does it mean to be meaningful to students? Constructivist master Jonathan said that solving problems means making sense. Therefore, constructivism is sometimes called problem-based teaching.

Extended information

Lecture content is presented in the form of questions. In other words, in constructivist teaching sites, students mainly learn around certain problems, and problems are the most important part of the teaching content. This is the focus issue advocated by constructivism. These questions are the real needs of learners. Coaching techniques, action learning, experiential learning, etc. that are currently popular in the market are more focused on certain issues or projects rather than explaining too many basic theories in a teaching style.

The teacher-led lectures have been replaced by students participating in discussions. In other words, the constructivist teaching process is mainly reflected in student participation, and the teacher's teaching part will be greatly reduced. Of course, there are many specific forms of seminars, including discussions, exchanges, demonstrations, training, practical operations, etc. This discussion includes discussions between students and students, as well as discussions between teachers and students. At the same time, the teacher's lectures are not completely eliminated, but the lectures are less and more intensive.

The teacher gives everyone the answer, which becomes the result of mutual cooperation between the teacher and the students to achieve mutual approval. This is one of the most important features of constructivism, and it is also the most worthy of in-depth discussion. Training is no longer unilateral indoctrination by teachers, but collaborative construction between teachers and students.

Therefore, constructivism first goes to Socrates' classic saying: "Education is not indoctrination, but lighting of fire." Training is not about instilling knowledge or ideas unilaterally, but igniting students, and everyone discusses together to achieve common knowledge and establish a meaningful structure.
