I use "social constructionism", which "includes" the epistemology of constructivism:

http://docs.moodle.org/en/Philosophy

In my view all of these should be viewed as referents for practice, rather than an approach to practice.

This means they just describe a world view that helps you make decisions about what you will do, rather than prescribe any particular methods.

I don't think you can "impose" constructivism or constructionism on anyone. But you can give them tools that perhaps encourage them to start making and sharing stuff and thus create conditions for better learning.

Are you really trying to sort by id,concept,definition? That seems unusual (the 4th parameter is a sort) though maybe not the cause of the issue.

Still, please try this and let us know:


$results = get_records('glossary_entries', 'glossaryid', 2, 'concept', 'id, concept,definition');
print_object($results);


Note that the first field returned (id) MUST be unique.

See MDL-13962 about self-selection for groups.

Good project idea - now we just need a mentor for it ...

Great!

As ideas surface, can there please be some brief analysis with them of

- how much is database template configuration and
- how much is new code in the database module

Cheers
