Constructionism

• by Seymour Papert
• learning by doing (instead of knowledge transfer - transmissionism)
• constructing connections and mental models, and using current knowledge to acquire more knowledge (Seymour Papert) (links)
• Logo is "mathland" - it's as natural to learn math in mathland, as it is to learn French in France
