Teacher action research plays a prominent role in affecting quality teaching and instilling democratic classroom pedagogy. The purpose of this action research was to investigate the effectiveness of a learner centered teaching-learning model for elementary science pre service teachers. In this study 108 students in elementary science pre service classrooms were involved. Data was obtained from observations of the students’ teaching, analysis of pre and post essays concerning their philosophy of effective lesson planning and implementation, and a final questionnaire to assess satisfaction with the teaching–learning model. Based on analysis there was observed improvement of the planning, organizing, and analyzing skills for classroom processes and satisfaction with the pedagogy. The results from this study indicate that the democratic student centered teaching-learning model is effective in developing pre service teacher educators’ classroom practices. Based on the findings the next cycle of action research will investigate further changes for instructional materials.
