Hoover, W. (1996). The Practice Implications of Constructivism. Retrieved January 25, 2009, from SEDLetter Volume IX Number 3 August 1996. http://www.sedl.org/pubs/sedletter/v09n03/practice.html

This was a site that I found through the previous log. This was a relatively short article, but what I liked aobut it was that it was based on how students learn, especially through constructivism. The teacher's main role in contructivism based education is not to teach the unenlightend student, but to assume that all students are enlightened and to encourage and engage them into learning. I found this article to be a good, brief overview of constructivism and how to use it in the classroom. I found the article to be well written and very informative.
