Can't say I found this article particularly valuable. It spends most of its time trying to explain what constructivism is, and then does a poor job demonstrating how it's being misused as a theory of pedagogy.
Mostly the point seems to be that constructivism would promote teaching multiple representations of something... but then teachers end up doing something else:
> Teachers are therefore encouraged to design learning environments through which students are able to learn for themselves, sometimes facilitating the learning, but generally providing limited explicit guidance.
I'm not even sure how this follows.
