Constructivist Paradigm in the Learning of School Mathematics
Constructivist Paradigm in the Learning of School Mathematics

Summary/Abstract: Mathematics is, for most students, a challenge which requires for its learning a considerable effort. As a dimension of the scholar curriculum, it is based on the internal logic of the science of reference, but mathematical knowledge must be built in relation to the student’s psychic life specific features. In the teaching process, this statement is the main actor, the role of the teacher being that of a facilitator, guide, coach, organizer, stimulator, support, and coordinator. From the constructivist theory’s view, learning as an active, direct and experiential process is a personal frame, initiated, managed, assessed and regulated by the one who is learning.
