Makale Özeti:

There has been a wealth of research examining learning environments as one of the variables
that contributes to academic success for students studying science. A constructivist
learning environment has been explored as one way to assist students in achieving greater
success with science learning. There is a lack of research concerning how and if successful
teachers continue to change over time. This study was designed to address such research
gaps. The teacher leaders involved served as staff members for Iowa Chautauqua
and continue to develop and improve in their use of constructivist practices. There has
been a lack of evidence focusing specifically on how participation in the Iowa Chautauqua
Professional Development Program actually increases use of constructivist teaching
practices. Results of the research indicate that the teacher leaders continue to develop further
in their use of constructivist practices over time. The Constructivist Learning Environment
Survey (CLES) scores were used to indicate improvement. There are implications
for planning and improving classroom learning environments for enrollees in new
efforts that were suggested by teacher leaders.
