Resource - Is All Constructivism Equal?

The article The Many Faces of Constructivism explains that constructivist classrooms invite different constructivist responses and approaches for students. Constructivism is a toolbox for problems of learning. I found the author's analogy very interesting - he proposes looking at constructivism like a Swiss army knife with various blades for various needs. That definitely made me visualize constructivism in a new way!
