Abstract

ABSTRACT: This paper replicates a previous study that used an active learning for knowledge construction in the e-learning model with three stages of underpinning, ownership, and engaging hypothesizing that the underpinning and ownership stages positively and significantly contribute to the engaging stage where the actual knowledge construction takes place. The findings of the present study have ensured the validity and the generalizability of the previous study results. Also, the findings reiterated the efficacy of the model for active learning for knowledge construction in e-learning. The paper concludes with implications and recommendations for future research.
