Ep. 4 | Real Short: Constructivism & Science

Nothing Is Real | Culture, Media & Society through A Constructivist Lens

Here’s another “Real Short”, and it’s all about constructivism and science! In this episode, I give a brief history of different theories on knowledge within science, talk about Jean Piaget’s contribution to evolutionary biology, and talk a little more about why we should change our scientific lenses.

Always excited to hear your thoughts! If you'd like to contribute in any way, leave a comment, or give advice, e-mail [e-mail], or fill out this Google form: https://forms.gle/C3RtQ7mUQ8zovmpVA
