Description

Learning cannot be maximized when students merely meet the demands of school tasks by transforming knowledge. Researchers are trying to prompt students’ learning to move beyond “knowledge reproduction”to “knowledge building.” There is a lack of agreement on the meaning of the term “knowledge building” in education so this paper offers a literature review of research and practices related to knowledge building in education. The review offers a set of features derived from reflections on the theoretical development and instructional practice of knowledge building in education over the last twenty years, in order to explore the necessary conditions that an educational knowledge building practice should have. Based on these features, the origin and the development process of knowledge building theory in education is explored.
