Utilizing the constructivist learning model, which emphasizes active student engagement, the research was conducted at Hyperion Theoretical High School in Chișinău, Moldova, involving 195 students across grades 6, 8, and 10. The study finds that integrating constructivist teaching methods — such as the 5E model, Flipped Classroom, and Early Physics Approach — positively influences students’academic performance at the middle and high school level. The results indicate a significant positive correlation between students ’ performance in laboratory work and their end-of-chapter evaluations. This highlights the importance of hands-on lab work in reinforcing learning and improving academic performance. The research reveals that, in middle school, girls perform better than boys in lab work and evaluations, but this difference diminishes in high school. The study suggests that constructivist lab work and assigned roles in group activities help reduce the gender gap in physics. The study indicates that physics is perceived as less masculine than traditionally thought, based on performance data and gender-related stereotypes. Despite some differences in performance, the overall constructivist environment in physics labs does not contribute to a negative experience based on gender.  \nKey words: constructivist physics lessons, school physics laboratories, academic success, summative evaluation, gender dynamics in physics learning.  \n1. Introduction  \nThe pursuit of effective teaching and learning approaches in physics education has been alongstanding challenge for educators and researchers alike. One promising approach that has gained significant attention in recent years is the constructivist learning model, which emphasizes the active engagement of students in the learning process (Gil-Pérez et al. ,2002) .  \nThe Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development has recognized the potential of constructivist learning in science education and has highlighted the importance of understanding physics concepts through a process of active knowledge construction, where students are encouraged to communicate their ideas, explore their misconceptions, and build a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter (OECD, 2023) .  \nThe effects of applying constructivism in classroom are multiple and unequivocal. Thus, in terms of academic achievement for middle school students, constructivist teaching is more effective than traditional teaching, is not effective in terms of building students’ physics identity, has some effect toward motivation and self-monitoring. Thus, a constructivist environment is preferred to a traditional classroom (Kim, 2005) .  \nIn order to fully participate in scientific practices and tackle real-life problems, individuals need more than just isolated knowledge or skills. They must develop a well-rounded scientific competence that enables them to understand phenomena and solve everyday issues while also preparing for future learning. Physics education should play a role in fostering this competence by focusing on fundamental concepts. Achieving this competence requires a continuous and cohesive educational effort over several years. Single lessons or standalone instructional units are inadequate; instead,  \ninstruction must be consistent with educational objectives across multiple lessons, units, and school years (Neumann & Nordine, 2022) .  \nConstructivist methods improve students’ cognitive learning activities and increase intrinsic motivation to learn physics (Beerenwinkel & von Arx, 2017) . Also, implementation of constructivistoriented teaching in daily classroom is difficult because we cannot permanently teach in a constructivist styl","cbCaiaLi78rtkXoN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaLi78rtkXoN","pdf",506973,13,"English","# 1.
