摘要：AbstractThis study were aimed at 1) examining and improving the efficiency of learning innovations that enhance thinking, 2) studying mechanisms for utilizing these innovations. The research instruments were opinionnaires for teachers and learners concerning learners’ thinking and observation for the science classroom. Qualitative data were collected by researchers. Protocol analysis, analytical description and interpretation were used to analyze the data. The analysis revealed the following results. ehehTehehT iour aspects of efficiency of the innovations: 1) production quality: examination and evaluation by experts; 2) contextual utilization: four learners per group in a learning situation showed efficiency; 3) the learners’ opinions toward the innovations: they were appropriate and supported the thinking process for them; 4) thinking ability: the thinking abilities of those who learned with the innovations were found from both protocol analysis and thinking ability tests. 2. The mechanism of effective utilization of innovation was revealed. 1) Initially, it could start from establishing the teachers’ performance of the learning innovations in both theory and practice. 2) Implementing the innovations in both theory and practice in real situations.
