Communal Constructivism ist eine Konzept von Bryn Holmes aus dem Jahr 2001:
In this model, students will not simply pass through a course like water through a sieve but instead leave their own imprint in the learning process.

Renée Fountain, University Laval, Québec:
According to CC [Communal Constructivism, ts], students construct learning “for” as well as “with” others, ideally leaving their imprint in the development of the course, their school or university, and ideally the discipline. [...] “The goal of such “cocurricularization” is to influence the quality of ALL work, not just one’s own. Quality is to be influenced OVER TIME (long term sustainability of knowledge-Ciffolilli, 2003 & Schwartz, 2004), ACROSS collectivities (across students, over classes, over years, over generations-Scardamalia & Bereiter, 1994), VIA opennatured projects and TOWARDS creating “impossible public goods” (Ciffolilli, 2003).”
