Knowledge Building Theory

Knowledge Building Theory emphasizes the collective creation and improvement of knowledge through collaboration and dialogue. In this approach, learners work together to share ideas, question each other, and build on what they know, rather than just acquiring information passively. The process involves recognizing that knowledge is not fixed but evolves through interactions and contributions from all participants. This theory encourages critical thinking, creativity, and active engagement, fostering a deeper understanding of general knowledge as a shared, dynamic resource rather than individual memorization.
