The Importance of Deep Learning on Constructivism Approach

This study aims to theoretically review the characteristics of the deep learning approach and its relation to the
constructivism approach in higher education. This paper is a literature study that discusses the relevance of social
constructivism theory as the theoretical basis of the learning approach practiced by lecturers and the deep learning
approach as a learning orientation practiced by students. In this article, the authors believe that the learning process
can rely on instructional design and student commitment in achieving valuable knowledge and skills. Because the
people who are prepared to compete as superior human resources are students themselves, this study provides a
theoretical view that can enrich the repertoire of knowledge in higher education learning and learning literature in
higher education. Several practical recommendations were also submitted to be a concern by stakeholders and
educators in implementing learning in higher education.
