	<swrc:abstract xml:lang="en">The study of the attempt to teach by peer learning was a revelation. There are not many research groups in education with the capability of using various innovative ways within the University of Mumbai, its affiliated colleges and also at national level in India.Even today the traditional methods are favoured over inclusions of new trends and use of technology in education. The success in learning in the present pilot study makes one wonder, if this is due to the result of constructionist environments. It is observed that the learning is done by epistemology and process orientations which is unique not due to its diversity but the underlying social constructionism as the unifying learning factor. The creation of a multitude of learning situations gives constructionism the status of the study its epistemological dimension and is oppose to instructionism as a means of transmission of knowledge. This acquisition of knowledge depends upon the nature of knowledge and the nature of knowing. The huge positive responses to learning with social constructionism indicates the need for adoption of proper learning design and decide the learning paths for open and distance learning.</swrc:abstract>
