The Regression Of Learning——Study On The Construction Of Kindergarten Activity Area Environment From The Perspective Of Constructivism

As is well known, learning plays the main part of influencing and deciding human development. According to traditional learning conception, learning is an activity of receiving knowledge from others in professional education institutions. However, in the view of constructivism, knowledge is actively constructed, toppling the traditonal ideas about learning. It holds that what mainly affects learning are individuals and the environment they are in; moreover, the two elements interact with each other. The dependence of learning on environment enlights educators that they should shoulder the main responsibility of creating a good preparatory learning environment for early learners. Then at activity areas in kindergarten, a main learning place for children, how can we effectively help children learn actively? As a matter of fact, the learning environment theory of constructivism is a strong impetus to the creative actions about learning environment.
