Abstract

The current desire of mathematics educators to devise variations of constructivist models of learning, combined with growing interest in the Soviet school of social constructionist theory, has perhaps clouded a bigger picture regarding the place and role of learning theory, especially as it relates to mathematics classroom practitioners. This paper attempts to step back from a detailed examination of theoretical orientations and adopts a more holistic perspective of contemporary learning theory as it impacts upon mathematics pedagogy, along with providing a framework for psychological and philosophical implications of a theoretical model.
