Which one of the following is emphasised in Constructivist teaching ?

This question was previously asked in
UPTET 2026 Paper 2 Social Studies Question Paper (3-Jul-2026) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Learner activity

Constructivist teaching is grounded in the idea that children build their own understanding rather than absorbing ready-made facts.

This approach places the learner at the centre, encouraging exploration, questioning and hands-on engagement with tasks and materials.

Through active involvement in activities, discussion and problem-solving, children construct meaning from their experiences.

Learner activity is therefore the element that constructivist teaching emphasises the most.
