Constructivist interventions adopted in the Bachelor Degree on Agroecology: students’ opinions

Abstract

Constructivism, as an approach, starts from the assumption that all participants in the education
process are responsible for the process, equally, since the real objective in the learning
process is the apprehension of knowledge. In this way, this report aims to bring, through the
voice of learners, their opinions on the experiences lived with the constructivist interventions
in the compulsory curricular component Psychology of Human Relations, in the undergrad degree
Bachelor of Agroecology. Many activities were developed in more than 40 hours of constructivist
classes, addressing the topics listed in the menus contained in the Course Political
Plan, in a practical and interactive way. It is unanimously summarized that it was worthwhile to
participate in classes so different but so necessary and that it was expected that other educators
will adopt, in the future, in the sequence of the next semesters of the course, constructivist
ways of approaching knowledge.
