Makale Özeti:
|
The teaching of science is important, both to meet the need for future workers in
fields requiring scientific capability and to equip students for full participation in
modern societies where many decisions depend upon knowledge of science.
However, many teachers in Australian primary schools do not allocate science education
sufficient amounts of time to achieve these outcomes. This study reports data
obtained from 216 teachers in the primary schools in a provincial Australian school
system. The purpose of the study was to assess the effects of existing strategies using
Primary Connections for promoting science teaching and to inform future professional
development strategies. Teachers reported moderate levels of self-efficacy for
teaching science and a proportion reported allocating little or no time to teaching
science. Both self-efficacy for science teaching and the amount of science taught were
higher for teachers who had used Primary Connections curriculum materials.
