The implementation of the theory in schools, however, is still problematic: how to implement the constructivist learning theory into practice? What are the results of the implementation of CL? This paper reflects the practices and the results of the constructivist learning approach in Japan as a part of the JICA training experiences. publication: JPMS refereed: TRUE citation: Slamet , Suyanto and Yoshisuke, Kumano SCIENCE TEACHING IMPROVEMENT IN JAPAN: THE THREE STEPS OF CONSTRUCTIVIST LEARNING.
