IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONSTRUCTIVIST PRINCIPLES INTO PRACTICE BY THE TEACHERS IN THE 9TH GRADE CHEMISTRY CURRICULUM

This study aimed at investigating how intended constructivist principles in the 9th grade chemistry curriculum have been implemented into practice by the teachers. Thus, it is intended to evaluate the consistency between the intended chemistry curriculum and observed-implemented chemistry curriculum...
