Fabulous Example of Constructivism in Action

This is a fabulous book, whether you are learning about Narrative Curriculum and Constructivism for the first time or just looking for real-life examples of them in use. This book is accessible and interesting and does not require a degree in education to be understandable and intriguing.The authors used Narrative Learning and Constructivism to guide the educational experiences at a local laboratory school. They use their book to illustrate that journey, combining a discussion of the theory with real-life examples and pictures of its practical use.I would definitely recommend it for anyone who is interested in education, instruction, alternative teaching methods or learning in general.
