Content Standards refers to the particular content the requires all learners to learn from

it. And also, it describes the knowledge and skills that students should attain, often

called the "what" of "what students should know and be able to do. The essential part of

this is to the way of thinking, working, communicating, reasoning and investigating

the important ideas of the students. While the Performance Standards are the

expected evaluation for instruction based on the given task to the students. It also

provides the evidence that proves that the expectation has met the content standard for

students. And the importance of this is to know the progress of learners in every subject.

For Learning standards are concise, written descriptions of what students are expected

to know and be able to do at a specific stage of their education. Learning progressions

map out a specific sequence of knowledge and skills that students are expected to learn

as they progress through their education. And it is very important to every student in

order for them to know exactly the expectation or goals.

2. What is constructivist theory

For me, Constructivism is the theory that says learners create knowledge rather than just passively
take in information. As people experience the world and reflect upon those experiences, they build
their own representations and incorporate new information into their pre-existing knowledge
(schemas).

Related to this are the processes of assimilation and accommodation.

 Assimilation refers to the process of taking new information and fitting it into an existing schema.
 Accommodation refers to using newly acquired information to revise and redevelop an existing
schema.
3. Expound why the constructivist theory is applicable in teaching mathematics.
Constructivism cuts a nice path between the main ideas that have influenced
how math has been taught: the concept of math as facts to be transmitted to the student,
and the view that some people have it and some people don't, where the educator's task
is to figure out how "smart" students are and choose the right tasks
4. What other learning theories could be implemented in teaching math that could
complement the down sides of constructivism?
