Definition:
Constructivism is a philosophy of learning founded
on the premise that, by reflecting our own
experiences, we construct our own understanding
of the world we live in. Each of us generates our
own ‘rules’ and ‘mental models’, which we use to
make sense of our experience. Learning, therefore,
is simply the process of adjusting our mental
models to accommodate new experiences.

Modelling:
Bandura identified four basic elements in the
learning process through observation, namely:
1. Attention---concentration while observing
2. Retention—sustain the behaviour observed in his
memory.
3. Reproduction—repeat his imitated behaviour.
4. Reinforcement/Motivation—satisfaction, reward
