Active-Constructive-Interactive: A Conceptual Framework for Differentiating Learning Activities
@article{Chi2009ActiveConstructiveInteractiveAC, title={Active-Constructive-Interactive: A Conceptual Framework for Differentiating Learning Activities}, author={Michelene T. H. Chi}, journal={Topics in cognitive science}, year={2009}, volume={1 1}, pages={ 73-105 } }
Active, constructive, and interactive are terms that are commonly used in the cognitive and learning sciences. They describe activities that can be undertaken by learners. However, the literature is actually not explicit about how these terms can be defined; whether they are distinct; and whether they refer to overt manifestations, learning processes, or learning outcomes. Thus, a framework is provided here that offers a way to differentiate active, constructive, and interactive in terms of…

Learning from Instructional Explanations: Effects of Prompts Based on the Active-Constructive-Interactive Framework
- Education, PsychologyPloS one
- 2015
In support of the constructive < interactive learning hypothesis, the learners who received adapted remedial explanations and revision prompts as add-ons to reduced explanations and inference prompts acquired more conceptual knowledge.
Measuring cognitive engagement through interactive, constructive, active and passive learning activities
- Education2016 IEEE Frontiers in Education Conference (FIE)
- 2016
This study is aimed at operationalizing the construct of cognitive engagement, the first phase in the attempt to develop an instrument that can be used to measure the cognitive processes associated with each construct of the ICAP framework.

It is proposed that the interactive mode of learning is a fruitful concept for specifying what constitutes productive social interaction in CSCL, given several conceptual and methodological clarifications.
Designing Collaborative Learning Activities for Two Outcomes: Deep Structural Knowledge and Idea Generation
- EducationICLS
- 2014
Using ICAP and PFL as instructional design tools, this work aimed to create a collaborative task that could present the opportunity to struggle with knowledge through constructive engagement during “preparation,” and then to consolidate knowledge during "future" collaboration to lead to deep learning.
Designing a constructive learning activity with interactive elements: the effects of perspective-shifting and the quality of source material
- LinguisticsInteract. Learn. Environ.
- 2017
An instructional task that encourages learners to design learning materials for fellow learners is used and results indicate that performing perspective-shifting can be a powerful technique for eliciting interactive learning behavior and, thus, for learning.
