In this video, I explain what is constructivism in research. In addition to providing a definition of constructivism and examples of where constructivism is used in practice, I also discuss the ontology and epistemology of this paradigm. The overall aim of the video is to explain constructivism in practical terms and explain what this paradigm means for our research choices, such as data collection and analysis procedures. Let me know in the comments if I managed to make constructivism easier for you to understand :)
