Spiral Curriculum

   
Building Blocks

     Constructivists like Bruner believe that learning is a continuous process and that a student is learning to learn. Jerome Bruner believed that students learned using knowledge they already had. Using previous knowledge the student continually building on what they have already learned and expand their base of knowledge.

    For the new information to be understood by the learner the teacher must adapt the curriculum not only to build on previous knowledge, but to teach it to each student's current level of understanding
