Definition
Exploratory learning is based on constructivist theories of learning. See also inquiry-based learning
According to Rieber (:587) all exploratory learning approaches are based on the following four principles:
- (a) Learners can and should take control of their own learning;
- (b) knowledge is rich and multidimensional;
- (c) learners approach the learning task in very diverse ways; and
- (d) it is possible for learning to feel natural and uncoaxed, that is, it does not have to be forced or contrived.
Examples
There are different kinds of tools for exploratory learning.
