Classroom environment is one of the most prominent learning factors. The teacher should be able to provide a delightful, happy and creative learning environment for the learner. Teacher and learners interest and ability in classroom, causes behavioral interactions and are the basis of learning process. although, this relationship between the teacher and the students and their interactions have not completely organized and also cannot be predicted easily. Effective relations between this two are one of the effective teaching duties. Students can learn creative and positive interactions which will be useful for their future life by having effective relations with the others. Anyway, interaction is the heart of classroom processes and activities. Researchers used qualitative approach and philosophical and analytic method of research in order to come up with the possible problems in the way of effective relation between teacher and learners. They also categorize the problems and suggest some possible solutions.

The purpose of the present study was to Effect of Students' Perception of Classroom Environment on Academic Self-efficacy and Attitudes to Science with Mediated Perception of Evaluation in first grade high schools. The purpose of this study was to provide a structural model for the effect of students' perception of the classroom environment and assessment on academic self-efficacy and attitudes to scienc In the secondary schools of the first level. The research method is descriptive structural equation. The statistical population of the study consisted of all high school students of Babol's first grade high schools who were selected using two-stage cluster sampling method of 371 students. To collect data, a questionnaire Assessment of classroom environment, Students' perceptions of assessment questionnaire, academic self-efficacy questionnaire and questionnaire Attitude to Science was used. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Pearson correlation coefficients and structural equation modeling) were used to analyze the data. . The results showed that there was a positive and significant relationship between all the variables in the classroom environment and the students' perception of the evaluation with academic self-efficacy and attitude to the sciences. The results of structural equations show that three Components of class environments (Equity, Teacher Support and Student Cohesiveness) have a direct and positive impact on the attitude to science. And two Components (Task Orientation and student Involvement,) have a positive effect on academic self-efficacy. The results of structural equations showed that all of Components Students' perceptions of assessment have a positive impact on the academic self-efficacy and attitude to science. The three assessment Components (Congruence with Planned Learning, Transparency, and diversity) have a direct impact on academic self-efficacy, and Congruence with Planned Learning is the only perceived Component of assessment that directly affects the attitude of the sciences. Also, all five Components of evaluation perception are mediatorial in the effect of Task Orientation on academic self-efficacy and attitudes to science. Therefore, it can be said that teaching students about the classroom environment and assessment is a positive predictor of academic self-efficacy and attitude to science.

Since the classroom environment is important in the process of teaching and learning as well as emotional and cognitive development of students, therefore, the primary purpose of this study is assessing the classroom Socio-psychological in order to identify school internal structure and its relation with student’s creativity in 2010-2011 academic year. The present study is an applied research, and according to its method of collecting data it is considered to be a descriptive-survey study. Its statistical population consists of all male fifth grade students in public elementary school in 2010-2011 academic year. Some 378 students were selected through combining methods; multistage cluster sampling and proportional stratified sampling. Two researcher-made questionnaires were used for collecting data (classroom Socio- psychological environment questionnaire with 48 items and creativity questionnaire with 18 items). Their face validity were investigated, and their reliability (0/84) and (0/76) were calculated and confirmed through Corenbach’s alpha coefficient. Descriptive statistics (frequency, percent, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (binomial test and stepwise multiple regression) were used for describing and analyzing the collected data. The findings of the study indicate that for the fifth grade students some of the components (having teacher support, maintaining order and organizing contents) are assessed desirable, some other components (participation, mutual interests among students, importance to work and homework, observing and applying the rules and regulations) are assessed as relatively desirable, and educational innovation was considered as undesirable component. The results of stepwise multiple regressions in the study also showed that the three components of Socio- psychological environment (educational innovation, having teacher support, and mutual interests among students) have the power of anticipating creativity. Sincere and warm environment and emotional learning can promote teachers and students creativity, and thus it can lead to school improvement. Since classroom environment is the main decision maker of class behavior and learning therefore, to some extent it is able to anticipate the creativity of students.

Mathematics teacher's philosophy and view about the nature of mathematics play a vital role in their schema of the teaching and learning process; and this influence on quality of instructional directly. The aim of this research is to describe and identify the major beliefs of constructivist mathematics teachers. The beliefs of 5 secondary mathematics teachers were investigated carefully, and also evaluated the extent of consistency of their classroom environments with principles of constructivism in the study. The instruments of data collecting were beliefs survey questionnaires, survey questionnaire of construction oriented classroom environment, semi-structured interviews and classroom observation. Data were summarized and structured by content analysis method. The results of data relating to 5 teachers showed that 2 of them had the most consistent between classroom environments and constructivism principles. Investigating these 2 teacher's beliefs led to identification of 6 core beliefs that are consistent with constructivism principles.
