This document provides instructions for students on completing assignments from the CORE Education Ltd website. Students are asked to read pages 4-6 and listen to an accompanying audio segment, complete exercises 3-6, read a provided URL link and finish a web quest, and write their answers on the class wiki or personal blog. The document also shares ideas from John Dewey on constructivist pedagogy, including that effective teaching occurs when students are autonomous and engaged in experiences that challenge their thinking.
