In this overview study, we would like to present the basic constructivist approaches that have affected or influenced the current concept of education. The teacher-student interaction is reflected by personality, psychological traits, attitudes and cultural capital of the participants of the educational process as well as the teacher's effort to mediate the didactic content to the students. Concerning the changing roles of the teacher and the student, which is followed by a concept based on pedagogical constructivism, it is also important to accept the need for adequate training of undergraduate teachers and further education of teachers in practice. The present discourse analysis will focus on the implementation of constructivist theory in educational theory and didactics.
In the paper is observed the teacher's concept and realization of the conception of constructivism in the real conditions of school teaching. Constructivist pedagogy, despite numerous curricular reforms, is not sufficiently implemented in the real conditions of school teaching. We ask ourselves a question about which of the didactic implications has the constructivist epistemology in teaching. Teacher's concept of teaching as a general strategy for teacher's thinking and negotiation is the basis for planning constructivist-oriented teaching and for its actual practice in the lesson. In the theoretical part of the paper is represented the significance of the term teacher's conception of constructivist-oriented teaching and its real understanding of the constructivism theory in terms of school teaching. Based on the results of a research conducted through a questionnaire survey and a direct observation of lessons, we bring closer the reality of teaching of this epistemology, different perspectives, the teachers themselves as constructors of this paradigm.
The article tends to questions of complexity (integrity) of technical subjects instruction. This complexity can be viewed in horizontal direction, i. e. as complexity of contents substitutability, as well as in vertical direction as a connection of theoretical cognition with its practical use for pupil´s creative activities when mastering the learning contents. Formulating object aims in form of competences is considered by the authors to be appropriate for viewing the instruction complexity and its results.
