7E learning model7E learning cycle is a teaching model that encourages students to be active, to think about the findings they obtain, to interpret their findings according to their initial plans and to predict them in new situations. This model provides students with opportunities for discussion and interaction. The model is designed based on constructivist theory. The guiding concept of constructivism is that later learning is greatly influenced by previous knowledge; therefore, learning should be based on the interaction of old and new knowledge. 7E learning cycle model consists of seven steps: Reveal, Participate, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate and Extend. According to past studies, 7E model is more effective in developing students than traditional learning models.
