Two Metaphores of Learning (Sfard 1998)

The acquisition metaphor and the participation metaphor.
I want to use this metaphor of the to positions of the student's learning, the first is when he/she is a pasive-receptive, in which learning is mainly a process of acquiring chunks of information, the latter perceive learning as a process of participating in various cultural practices and shared learning activities. Doing the practice in a College have forced me to think more like a teacher and what do the students from tertiary level need to take more advantages of the education they received. All of these is with the purpose to get more information from the lectures that when I speak with them I tryed to make them aware of my point of view as student in education and try to share with them my still in process of construction learning of all the activities involved in clases and its preparation. However, I feel that I have more skills everyday to speak about the topic of these reseach and the motivation and iniciative to continue with these part of the master which sometimes is hit with some obstacles I hope that those difficulties gave me more strength to face them and for a consequence make me feel more eager of experience more in the environment I have been trying to take some useful information and examples of well done things and also some of them that has to be improved, because as every organization is in a process of knowledge building.
