摘要
The purpose of the study was to examine pre-service chemistry teachers' preferences for creating constructivist learning environment in their future class. For the specified purpose, Constructivist Learning Environment Scale (CLES) was adapted to Turkish and validated for pre-service chemistry teachers by conducting Confirmatory and Exploratory Factor Analyses. The data analyses were carried out utilizing LISREL 8.71 and SPSS 15.0 programs. Results supported 5-factor structure of CLES. Moreover, Cronbach's alpha value for each scale was found to be sufficiently high. Administration of Turkish version of the CLES as a valid and reliable instrument revealed that learning to speak out subscale of the CLES had the highest mean value (M=25.44). The mean of learn about the world (M=24.94), and learn to communicate (M=24.33) subscales were higher than that of learn to learn (M=22.12) and learn about science (M=21.07) subscales. Discussion of the results and suggestions for teacher education were provided.
