- Synopsis
- This is the basic premise of Dynamic Social Studies for Constructivist Classrooms-- taking advantage of children’s natural curiosity and built-in desire to learn. Because this ninth edition directs primary attention to capturing the natural learning style of children, students will be referred to as “young social scientists.” The young social scientists in our classrooms put subject matter to work to find and solve problems just like practicing social scientists do. This kind of teaching does not minimize the subject matter, for social scientists rarely find a powerful and interesting problem without substantial background knowledge. It simply suggests that subject matter can be put to work to stoke the curiosity in our students.
