Summary/Abstract: Interactive constructivism has contemporary views on knowledge and learning. The constructivists affirm that truth is intersubjective, so there is no unique representation of reality and we cannot speak about a meta-observer. These ideas have their main roots in John Dewey’s anti-metaphysical philosophy. This study presents the most relevant connections between Dewey and constructivism, trying to underline the importance of John Dewey’s philosophy and its actuality.
