Abstract
Constructivism is a popular but
often misconstrued worldview.
This article strengthens the
constructivist position by showing
that it can withstand a knowable
real world. Such a position
helps to correct many widespread
practices in the name of
constructivist education such as
equating hands-on experiences
with active learning. Further, it
spans constructivism over the
entire training life cycle. It makes
a strong case for constructivism
as a way to have a world that
knows to live with diversity.
