Instructivism, constructivism or connectivism?
E-Learning Provocateur
MARCH 16, 2009
In the 1990s, constructivism heralded a new dawn in instructional design, turbo-charged by the rise of Web 2.0.

Why, in the midst of ever-advancing learning theory and progressive instructional design, does such rampant instructivism persist?
