Abstract

This study explores how a group of pre-service biology teachers view the nature of evolutionary theory and how their views about nature of science affect their approaches to the theory of evolution. A total number of 75 pre-service teachers participated in the study. Participants’ perceptions of nature of science and the theory of evolution were assessed by a questionnaire and a semi-structured, face-to-face interviews. The results revealed that the participants generally had negative attitudes toward the nature and status of the theory of evolution. Furthermore, a detailed analysis of participants’ accounts with regard to the nature of science and the examination of the association of these accounts with their views about the theory of evolution implied a potential relationship.

Özet

Bu çalışma biyoloji öğretmen adaylarının evrim teorisini nasıl algıladıklarını ve bilimin doğasına ilişkin görüşlerin bu algıyı nasıl etkilediğini araştırmaktadır. Çalışmaya toplam 75 öğretmen adayı katılmıştır. Katılımcıların evrim teorisi ve bilimin doğasına ilişkin görüşleri bir anket ve yüzyüze yapılan yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler ile araştırılmıştır. Sonuçlar katılımcıların genel olarak evrim teorisinin doğası ve status konusunda olumsuz görüşlere sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. Katılımcıların bilimin doğasına ilişkin görüşleri ve bu görüşlerin evrim teorisine bakışları üzerine etkisi üzerine yapılan detaylı çözümlemeler, bu iki bilgi alanı arasında potansiyel bir ilişki olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.
