Science Teaching Efficacy

One of the most necessary teaching competencies for science teachers concerns their self-efficacy belief. It is also necessary for teachers to benefit from educational research in order to develop their science teaching efficacy beliefs. However, studies are restricted. This study aims to analyze the attitudes of pre-service science teachers towards educational research and their science teaching efficacy beliefs, and the relationship between the two variables according to some demographical (academic achievement, gender, and the type of high school they attended). The study was conducted according to the survey research design. Sample of the study includes 517 pre-service science teachers (final year students) at five different universities in Turkey. ‘Teachers Attitude Scale towards Educational Research [TASTER]’ and ‘Science Teaching Efficacy Belief Instrument [STEBI]’ were used as data collection tools. The data were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 18.0. Analysis of the data has revealed that there is a relationship between the attitudes of the pre-service science teachers towards educational research and their science teaching efficacy belief. Key words: attitude, educational research, self-efficacy, pre-service science teacher.

One of the factors influencing teachers’ and pre-service teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs is the use of innovations and research in education (scientific articles, thesis, and new teaching materials). This study aims to examine to what extent pre-service science teachers follow the innovations in the field of education and use these innovations in their profession. Secondly, how the innovations in the field of education effect teachers’ science teaching self-efficacy beliefs is examined. Survey method which is one of the quantitative research approaches was used in this study. The sample group of the study consisted of 563 pre-service science teachers enrolled in the Department of Science Teacher Training in the Faculty of Education at six universities in different regions of Turkey. The data in the study were collected using the “Science Teaching Efficacy Belief Instrument (STEBI)” developed by Riggs and Enochs (1990) and “Scale of Following and Using the Innovations in the Field of Education” (SFUIFE) developed by the researchers of this study. The data were analyzed both descriptively and predictively using SPSS. The results of the study showed that the primary resources (search engines such as google, web pages for course materials etc.) have been used and followed less than the secondary resources (conferences, symposiums, panels, workshops, thesis, and scientific articles etc.) by pre-service science teachers. In addition, it was found that following and using social media tools, thesis and scientific articles increase pre-service science teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs of science teaching.

Structured Questionnaire

This study was carried out to determine the perceptions of pre-service classroom and science teachers related to theconcept of organic agriculture. The sample of the study consisted of 85 pre-service teachers, 57 from the Department ofClassroom Teaching and 28 from the Department of Science Teaching in Ağrı İbrahim Çeçen University, in theacademic year of 2016-2017. In the study, a semi-structured questionnaire which includes the statement “To me,organic agriculture means……” was used as data collection tool. In this study, the organic agriculture perceptions ofthe pre-service teachers were determined under five main categories. The ratio of 'natural agriculture, which has thehighest percentage among these categories, is 41% among the pre-service classroom teachers while this ratio is 65%among pre-service science teachers. It is among the recommendations of the study that the subjects related to organicagriculture are removed from the elective courses and placed in the science curriculum.
