Constructionism
One such approach, Seymour Papert’s Constructionism (note the different spelling), has taken Piaget’s ideas and extrapolated them into the teaching and learning setting. He claims that accommodation and assimilation can be invoked in a learner when educators create learning environments that encourage learners to make tangible objects in the real world, hence the term constructionism. Papert believes that learning by doing is nothing new and has been advocated by educators for centuries, but what is different now is that advances in technology have placed powerful building tools in the hands of the learner like never before.

Project-Based Learning
Project-based Learning (PBL) is a popular manifestation of Piaget and Papert’s ideas. It is a structured method containing a number of design steps, designed to allow educators to create the learning pathway described above. PBL can be defined as:

'Project-based learning, or PBL, is the use of in-depth and rigorous classroom projects to facilitate learning and assess student competence. Students use technology and inquiry to respond to a complex issue, problem or challenge. PBL focuses on student-centered inquiry and group learning with the teacher acting as a facilitator.'
