The purposes of this study were to investigate the relationship between genetic knowledge and perceived technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) of pre-service science teachers and explore relationships among the components of TPACK. A total of 1530 pre-service science teachers who are enrolled in elementary science education department of Education Faculties of 8 public universities located in the central part of the country participated to the study. The perceived TPACK questionnaire developed by MaKinster, Boone, and Trautmann, (2010) and genetic concept test developed by Sadler and Zeidler (2005) were used. Results revealed that most of the subscales of TPACK were correlated with genetic concept test and the highest correlation was obtained with perception of content knowledge. Correlations among the TPACK subscales revealed high correlations and the highest correlation was obtained between perceived technological content knowledge and perceived technological pedagogical content knowledge. This study supported that both content knowledge in science and each knowledge sources of TPACK are vital in developing competency in technological pedagogical content knowledge.

Investigating Science Teachers' Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) Competencies: A Mixed Method Study Tanrısevdi, Mine; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Canbazoğlu Bilici, Sedef; Department of Science Education (2021-7-12) The purpose of the present study was to investigate science teachers’ technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) in terms of different variables. Specifically, the purpose was to examine science teachers’ TPACK competency levels according to their gender, experience years and determine their TPACK indicators based on TPACK-Deep factors, namely design, exertion, ethics, and proficiency. The current study was followed by explanatory sequential mixed methodology and composed of two stages: survey rese...
Investigating perceptions of preservice mathematics teachers on their technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) regarding geometry Bulut, Aykut; Işıksal Bostan, Mine; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2012) The aim of this study is to investigate perceptions of preservice mathematics teachers’ technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) regarding geometry. In addition, the purpose is to examine the relationships among the components of TPACK. Moreover, possible gender and year of enrollment differences related to preservice mathematics teachers’ technological pedagogical content knowledge dimensions are examined. This research study has been conducted with 780 preservice mathematics teachers who are en...
Investigation of the relationship between pre-service science teachers' understandings of nature of science and their personal characteristics Çetinkaya, Gamze; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2012) The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible relationships between pre-service science teachers' understanding of nature of science (NOS) and their personal characteristics; understanding of nature of scientific inquiry (NOSI), epistemological world views, self-efficacy beliefs regarding science teaching, attitudes towards science teaching, metacognitive awareness level and faith/worldview schemas. The sample of the present study were 60 PSTs that are 3rd year students at elementary science edu...
Investigating pre-service science teachers’ perceived technological pedagogical content knowledge regarding genetics Savaş, Meltem; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2011) The purpose of this study was to investigate the preservice science teachers’ perceived technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) on genetics. More specifically, the purpose was to examine the relationships among the components of TPACK and genetics knowledge of the preservice science teachers. Moreover, findings the effect of the demographic information on perceived TPACK was also aimed. This study was conducted with preservice science teachers who were enrolled in elementary science education de...
INVESTIGATING SCIENCE TEACHERS’ VIEWS OF THE NATURE OF SCIENCE BASED ON THE RECONCEPTUALIZED FAMILY RESEMBLANCE APPROACH TO NOS Demirel, Zeynep Merve; Sungur, Semra; Çakıroğlu, Jale; Department of Science Education (2021-9-03) The purpose of this study is to investigate science teachers’ views of the nature of science (NOS) based on the framework of Reconceptualized Family Resemblance Approach to NOS (RFN) (Erduran & Dagher,2014; Kaya & Erduran, 2016b). Using the categories of the RFN framework; aims and values, scientific knowledge, scientific method and methodological rules, scientific practices, social-institutional aspect of science, science teachers’ views on NOS, views about RFN integration into their instruction, and views...
