The purpose of this study was to investigate preservice science teachers' (PSTs) beliefs about scientific process skills (SPS) and application of SPS during microteaching session. A case study approach was used. Participants were elementary PSTs enrolled in the practice teaching in elementary education course. Findings revealed that PSTs were not proficient in teaching SPS to students, however, their beliefs about SPS were found as satisfactory. After examining 200 lesson plans, it was observed that 77 of the lesson plans were prepared based on teacher-centered teaching methods and included basic SPS in their lesson plans and tried to develop these skills in students. A model was developed to explain factors that may influence PSTs' beliefs of SPS and their application.

Preservice Elementary Science Teachers Connections among Aspects of NOS Toward a Consistent Overarching Framework
ÖZGELEN, SİNAN; Hanuscin, Deborah L; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül (2013-08-01)
This study examined the connections elementary preservice science teachers made among various aspects of nature of science (NOS). Totally, 45 preservice science teachers who were enrolled in the Laboratory Application in Science II course participated in the study. The course provided meaningful and practical inquiry-based experiences, as well as explicit and reflective instruction about NOS. Each week, instructors targeted a specific NOS aspect related to the laboratory investigation. The design of the stu...
Preservice Science Teachers' Perceptions About Science Process Skills and Their Practices
Özgelen, Sinan; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül (null; 2007-04-09)
The purpose of this study was to investigate preservice science teachers (PSTs) perceptions about scientific process skills (SPS) and their applications. The case study approach was used. Participants were elementary PSTs who enrolled in the teaching practice course. Data gathered through interviews, observations, and lesson plans. The qualitative analysis yielded a total 10 sub categories that are summed under 3 main categories which are participants perceptions, concerns, and teaching practices about SP...
Preservice science teacher's efficacy beliefs regarding science teaching and their classroom management beliefs
Savran, Ayşe; Çakıroğlu, Jale Us; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2002)
This study intended to explore preservice science teachers' science teaching efficacy beliefs and their classroom management beliefs. In addition, preservice science teachers' efficacy and classroom management beliefs were compared regarding gender, and grade level. Also, the intenelationships among their efficacy beliefs, classroom management beliefs, the number of university pedagogical courses completed and university cumulative point grade average (CGPA) were investigated. The present study was conducte...
Preservice science teachers' collective efficacy in a science methods course
Atasoy, Volkan; Çakıroğlu, Jale (2019-05-04)
This study investigated how preservice teachers develop collective efficacy when preparing lesson plans for a science methods course, and how this collective efficacy changed over time. The data were collected from four preservice science teachers working in a group to fulfil the requirements of the course. Findings revealed that four factors, including collaborative work, sharing the same goal, attitudes towards group work and group cohesion, played an important role in the development of collective effica...
Multilevel analysis of students science achievement in relation to constructivist learning environment perceptions, epistemological beliefs, self-regulation and science teachers characteristics
Pamuk, Savaş; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Öztekin, Ceren; Department of Elementary Education (2014)
This study aimed to examine student science achievement in relation to constructivist learning environment perceptions, epistemological beliefs, self-regulation and science teacher characteristics. Data were collected using a battery of instruments administered to both 137 science teachers and their 3281 seventh grade students in Ankara, Turkey. Several Hierarchical Linear Modeling analyses were conducted to analyze the two level-data which were student-level that were self-regulation (i.e., self-efficacy, ...
