A Development of Training Model based on Constructivism Theory for Teachers under the Jurisdiction of the basic Education Commission

摘要

This research explored the training model based on constructivism theory for teachers under the jurisdiction of the Basic Education Commission. This model showed the instructional design including the conditions and approaches to be implemented for teaching. The study aimed to: 1) develop instructional design model which consisted of methodological groundwork studies and all literature review for creating the training model based on constructivism theory for teachers; 2) evaluate the appropriateness of the training model; 3) find out the efficiency of training module based on the model using the 85/85 criterion; and 4) explore satisfaction of teachers in training module based on constructivism theory. Focus group discussions were conducted with eight participants who were experts in constructivism theory and media practice. Data gathered were then certified by five purposively chosen methodological experts in constructivism theory and instructional design. The data were analyzed using means and standard deviation. The level of appropriateness of the training module were also tested for actual implementation to 30 teachers. The results of this research indicated that the development of training model based on constructivism theory for teachers under the jurisdiction of the Basic Education Commission could be explained using the 5C Model diagram. In this model, five components were analyzed – condition, conflict, catalyst, consideration, and construction. The model integrated the knowledge and learning activities within the management process. In addition, the research results showed that the training module based on constructivism theory for teachers had an efficiency of (E1/E2) 85.0/85.55 and high level of learner satisfaction.
