摘要
The rise of a socially-defined form of constructivism is identified as a central motif in current theorising around educational practice. The role of technology in supporting such a shift is noted along with a relative marginalisation of the role of teachers. While technology is implicated in creating less frequent contact between students and teachers in higher education, it is also argued to be implicated in rendering the contact that does occur to be less personal. Such re-mediation of the traditional student-teacher relationship represents a shift that might need to be more vigilantly monitored.
在目前教学理论中,社会建构主义已上升为主导。技术促使了这种转变,同时也使教师的角色相对边缘化。在高等教育领域,技术减少了师生之间的交流,同时也在削弱交流的个性化程度。这个趋势需引起警惕和关注。
