Dezvoltarea gândirii elevilor cu ajutorul modelului constructivist
The development of pupils thinking using the constructivist model

Summary/Abstract: In constructivist design the pupil is no longer represented as a vessel absor-bing information in a passive way. The knowledge is not received only by reading or listening; but by what the pupil extract of the teaching process in a dynamic way. The construction of pupils' knowledge is made interactive using existing mental and previous understandings; through processes of rebuilding older precepts; if major changes are brought by the new ones.

The second part of the paper highlights the benefits of this educational theory and its criticism.
