Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Social constructionism broadly, rejects the idea that knowledge can be divorced from social experience and access objectively an external reality, and is certainly gaining ground in the analysis of environmental problems.

Detailed explanation-2: -Behaviorist theory focuses on how people learn and form habits. The general idea is that ‘all the behavior learned by an individual is through interactions with the environment. ‘ Individual traits and natural tendencies have a minimal role to play in the education of an individual.

Students rely on others to help create their building blocks, and learning from others helps them construct their own knowledge and reality.
