Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Role of the Learner in the Classroom In a constructivist classroom, learning is an active process. Students are actively engaged, and are responsible for their learning. According to Grennon Brooks and Brooks, the learner controls their own learning, not the teacher.
