Popis: Constructivism as a set of beliefs provides a model of cognition that leads directly to a method of teaching that, in turn, credits the student with the power to become an active learner. Teachers' attitude towards constructivist approach in teaching has an effective value to increase teacher effectiveness among school teachers. The present study was conducted to inquire the present attitude of school teachers of W.B. in advocating constructivist approach in their teaching strategy and its impact on teacher effectiveness. CASST and PGTES were administered on 216 randomly selected school teachers for measuring their attitude towards constructivist approach & teacher effectiveness. The major findings were observed that the teachers of W.B. possess a moderately positive attitude towards constructivist approach in daily classroom teaching situation and location-wise and gender-wise the difference of this attitude is insignificant. Moreover, teachers' attitudes towards constructivist approach and teacher effectiveness share a moderate positive correlation.
