This study explored how preservice teachers grew in their understanding of inquiry science through conducting an in-depth
individual inquiry investigation in their science methods course. Elementary preservice teachers’ understanding about inquiry
investigations, their attitudes towards the assignment, and their views towards using individual inquiry investigations in
their own classrooms were studied through written reflections, science notebook writings, and researcher field notes. After
conducting an out-of-class inquiry investigation based on their own questions and design, the preservice teachers demonstrated
a variety of strengths in their understandings of inquiry-based teaching, their attitudes towards doing science, and their
projected use of inquiry in their own classrooms. Weak areas included forming researchable questions and superficial experimental
design. 相似文献

This article describes an innovative approach to developing preservice elementary science teachers’ classroom confidence and
skills. Based on lesson study approaches, preservice candidates designed and taught integrated science–mathematics lessons
during the semester before their student teaching. Working in teams, candidates designed and taught a common lesson in 3 different
classrooms, critiquing and refining their lesson between each teaching activity. Data collected from observations of classroom
teaching events, team reports, and individual reflections were analyzed qualitatively. Results indicate that, over the 3 teaching
events, there were dramatic improvements in lesson design and delivery, the management of the learning environment, the quality
of students’ engagements with meaningful content, and the quality of assessments and generation of student data.
According to the website of the Lesson Study Research Group, there were more than 2,300 teachers in over 335 schools involved
in lesson study in the U.S. as of May 2004 (www.tc.edu/lessonstudy/). Additional lesson study information, projects, and resources
are available through a number of other websites, including www.lessonresearch.net (at Mills College) and www.uwlax.edu/sotl.lsp

Elementary teachers face increasing demands to engage children in authentic science process and argument while simultaneously preparing them with knowledge of science facts, vocabulary, and concepts. This reform is particularly challenging due to concerns that elementary teachers lack adequate science background to teach science accurately. This study examined 81 in-classroom inquiry science lessons for preservice education majors and their cooperating teachers to determine the accuracy of the science content delivered in elementary classrooms. Our results showed that 74 % of experienced teachers and 50 % of student teachers presented science lessons with greater than 90 % accuracy. Eleven of the 81 lessons (9 preservice, 2 cooperating teachers) failed to deliver accurate science content to the class. Science content accuracy was highly correlated with the use of kit-based resources supported with professional development, a preference for teaching science, and grade level. There was no correlation between the accuracy of science content and some common measures of teacher content knowledge (i.e., number of college science courses, science grades, or scores on a general science content test). Our study concluded that when provided with high quality curricular materials and targeted professional development, elementary teachers learn needed science content and present it accurately to their students. 相似文献

Teachers' understanding of the nature of science(NOS) and science inquiry (SI) can be linked to the use of the teaching methods advocated by the currentscience education reforms. The purpose of this study was to describe and evaluate an elementary science methodscourse in which the NOS and SI are embedded and explicitly taught. As a result of the course, incomingconceptions of science as primarily a body of knowledge changed to a more appropriate, blended view of science as abody of knowledge generated through the active application of scientific inquiry. 相似文献

The National Science Education Standards have outlined flexible processes children perform when engaging in scientific inquiry.
Cases narratives are a common component of many university science education courses but rarely are they used as a tool to
evaluate the preservice teachers within these courses. This article describes the construction of a positive and negative
science teaching case narrative. These case narratives can be used to evaluate the level of acceptance of scientific inquiry
teaching in preservice elementary teachers. 相似文献

Learning science through the process of inquiry is advocated in curriculum documents across many jurisdictions. However, a number of studies suggest that teachers struggle to help students engage in inquiry practices. This is not surprising as many teachers of science have not engaged in scientific inquiry and possibly hold naïve ideas about what constitutes scientific inquiry. This study investigates teachers' self-reported approaches to teaching science through inquiry. Phenomenographic interviews undertaken with 20 elementary teachers revealed teachers identified six approaches to teaching for inquiry, clustered within three categories. These approaches were categorized as Free and Illustrated Inquiries as part of an Experience-centered category, Solution and Method Inquiries as part of a Problem-centered category, and Topic and Chaperoned Inquiries as part of a Question-centered category. This study contributes to our theoretical understanding of how teachers approach Inquiry Teaching and suggests fertile areas of future research into this valued and influential phenomenon broadly known as ‘Inquiry Teaching'. 相似文献

何谓“探究式科学教学”(the science teachingas inquiry)?人们一般认为它是一种科学教学模式或方法。美国教育家萨其曼和施瓦布(J.R.Suchman& J.J.Schwab)等对探究性学习进行了深入的研究,他们从不同角度证明了教学过程中“探究活动”的重要性。萨其曼注重实践,主张“探究方法的训练”模式,重点是帮助学生认清事实,建立正确的科学概念,并形成假说以解释新事物和新现象。施瓦布则试图把“探究的科学”与“探究的教学”结合起来,主张 相似文献

We describe the Science Semester, a semester-long course block that integrates three science courses and a science education methods course for elementary teacher education majors, and examine prospective elementary teachers’ developing conceptions about inquiry, science teaching efficacy, and reflections on learning through inquiry. The Science Semester was designed to provide inquiry-oriented and problem-based learning experiences, opportunities to examine socially relevant issues through cross-disciplinary perspectives, and align with content found in elementary curricula and standards. By the end of the semester, prospective elementary teachers moved from naïve to intermediate understandings of inquiry and significantly increased self-efficacy for science teaching as measured on one subscore of the STEBI-B. Reflecting on the semester, prospective teachers understood and appreciated the goals of the course and the PBL format, but struggled with the open-ended and student-directed elements of the course. 相似文献

The teacher as researcher, Colburn, and the researcher, Bianchini, investigated Colburn's use of inquiry to teach the nature of science to prospective elementary teachers; we attempted to identify those aspects of the nature of science addressed through inquiry instruction and the varied contexts in which such insights arose. We began by videotaping small group inquiries and whole class deliberations during three units of Colburn's inquiry‐oriented general science course. We then conducted separate qualitative analyses of the resulting 20 h of videotaped data. Colburn, the teacher and informant, adopted an emic perspective and employed examples of explicit and implicit deliberations and demonstrations of the nature of science to construct his case. Bianchini also used an emic perspective, but examined only what teacher and students explicitly identified as examples of and insights into the nature of science. Taken together, our analyses highlight the difficulties in presenting a cogent and comprehensive picture of the nature of science to students, the teacher's pivotal role in initiating discussions of what science is and how scientists work, and the strengths and limitations of using classroom‐based research to investigate nature of science instruction. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
