Abstract

The influence of a module on science teaching of a teacher education prgoramme is reflected by the changes in the Science Teaching Efficacy Beliefs of the preservice teachers at two phases: before they took the module on science teaching, and after their teaching practice period. A comparison of the findings with those obtained from the interviews suggested that the preservice teachers were more confident with teaching science, knowing more about how to engage pupils in activities and knowing that their efforts would be effective.
