The second data collection tool was "Learning Outcomes Questionnaire for Teachers". This questionnaire was also prepared by the researchers for the teachers to determine teachers' opinions about the degree that students achieved the learning outcomes. Open-ended questions were prepared and asked to the teacher to obtain the qualitative data Moreover, classroom observations were carried out during four weeks, and one class hour of observation was made per week.
