The research group was composed of 241 social studies teachers. A Turkish translation of the work “Constructivist Learning Environment Scale” by Tenenbaum, Naidu, Jegede & Austin (2001), adapted by Fer & Cırık (2006), was used as a guide for data collection. This research shows that the teachers were largely successful in creating the constructivist learning environment, but that by far the most pertinent factor in the success or failure in creating such an atmosphere is the geographical location of the school in relation to an urban center. http://jsser.org/article/view/5000119878/pdf_12Social studiesteacherconstructivist learning environments
