Abstract
The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between quantum teaching and constructivism with curriculum decision-making by elementary teachers in Babolsar city. The design of the current research; Quantitative and descriptive-surveillance method and the statistical population included 240 elementary school teachers of Babolsar city, and 143 people were selected as a sample based on Morgan's sampling table. The research tools were adapted from the standard constructivism questionnaire of Mohammadi, Abedini Baltrok and Mansoori (2018), the standard questionnaire of Hajitabar firouzjaee's curriculum decision-making (2018) and the researcher-made questionnaire of quantum teaching. The validity of the tool was 97%, 86% and 97% respectively, and the reliability of the tool through Cronbach's alpha was 94%, 98% and 96%. Data analysis was done with descriptive statistics (standard deviation and mean) and inferential (Pearson's correlation coefficient statistical test and multiple regression at the same time). The results showed that there is a difference between quantum teaching and curriculum decision-making (r = 0.653), between constructivism and curriculum decision-making (r = 0.763) and between quantum teaching and curriculum decision-making (r = 0.652). There is a significant relationship at the 0.05 level in Babolsar elementary school. Also, the results showed that being constructivist can predict the way of curriculum decision-making (centralized/decentralized) of elementary school teachers in Babolsar city.
