Abstract: In India, where classrooms are intentionally structured in a manner that they could accommodate maximum number of children. Educators were involved in lecturing and not teaching. Children waited for teachers to deliver instructions, which they immediately captured in their notebooks and memorised and produced during exams. This was instructional approach. In the Learning approach, all of this would change. One major shift that learning approach could bring about in the Indian education system is to introduce constructivism in educational institutions. Considering constructivism is the only possible framework for teaching and learning. It is one way of thinking about how knowledge is formed and understanding takes place. Key words: Instruction, Teaching, Learning, Constructivism
