Abstract
The main goal of this research is the investigation of chemistry education approaches in the high schools. This study is based on the qualitative approach and has been done using the phenomenology method. Based on the purposeful sampling, 26 teacher-students of chemistry education at Farhangian University, Isfahan Shahid Bahonar Campus, who were conducting teaching practice 4 in the second half of the academic year 1398-1399, participated in this study. Data gathering was carried out using the semi structured interviews and data analysis was performed by coding and finding the concepts and themes. The results indicated that although the teaching programs of chemistry education in Iran are based on the novel and active methods, but these programs are not implemented in the schools. Data analysis shows that teachers' unfamiliarity with educational goals, lack of appropriate infrastructure, results-oriented and lack of motivation of teachers and students have led to improper implementation of curricula. Transition from traditional structure requires the professional education of teachers in the novel learning method and information technology, creating an efficient monitoring system on the teacher’s performance and providing the necessary facilities.
