Talk:Social constructivism (learning theory)

I find it somewhat confusing to have two articles with very similar names addressing very different issues related to Constructivism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_constructivism_(learning_theory) which does not deal with Vygotskian issues and

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Social_constructivism_%28learning_theory%29&direction=prev&oldid=193815804

which does deal with Vygotskian issues. Please could I support the idea that a a disambiguation page be created which will highlight the differences to those people who, like me, are not expert sociologists.

It would also be useful to be able to track down the dominant author of this article in order to supply correct references for a paper which I am involved with.

At the moment I am referencing this article as follows: Yasnitsky, Anton, et al, 2007,  http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Social_constructivism_%28learning_theory%29&direction=prev&oldid=193815804 Thanks! Ptpare (talk) 15:38, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

This shoudl not be merged with constructivism (learning theory) because it is a separate theory. The are somewhat related, but are distinctly different theories. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.9.155.56 (talk) 01:47, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Hello all!

I just created this page because I felt that social constructivism (learning theory) needs its own article. Some other constructivism articles have made references to the "social constructionism" article, which is not the Vygotskian social constructivism - social constructionism is a sociological theory that is somewhat related, but not the same as the learning theory.

I wrote the first two sentences, but coppied the rest of the information from various other Wikipedia articles that had sections on this topic.

This article needs to be organized and expanded upon... Please help! I will try to come back and do what I can as time permits. Cmsmith81 05:08, 8 July 2007 (UTC)cmsmith81

Copyvios
I've removed massive amounts of copyright violations from this article. Some were copied from other Wikipedia articles without notice (original revision), which violates the GFDL (Cmsmith81: please don't duplicate content on Wikipedia!); others were copied (perhaps indirectly through other offending Wikipedia articles) from web pages and papers, such as  or. -- Lea (talk) 00:34, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Redirect
After removing the copyvios, only a sub-stub is left. Notability is not asserted (and was not asserted before removing the copyvios), in particular not as a lemma distinct from social constructivism. I'm therefore redirecting this to social constructivism. If you want to recreate this article, please make sure you establish notability per WP:N, and please do not copy any text. Moving (and very limited copying) of text from other Wikipedia articles can be sensible, but each individual move must described in the edit summary both at the source and the destination article, to meet the requirements of the GFDL. -- Lea (talk) 00:44, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
 * If Constructivism (learning theory) is the more appropriate redirect target, please feel free to change the redirect. -- Lea (talk) 00:48, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
