Assessment and Survey Identifiers: Test of Science Related Attitudes
Abstract: This study involved the attitudes towards science of elementary preservice teachers at a large public university in Texas. A version of the Test of Science Related Attitudes (TOSRA) was used to assess teachers' attitudes before and after completing a teaching methods course. The coursework involved an integrated science curriculum and centered on the 5E lesson cycle. Statistical analyses showed significant improvements in attitudes towards science for four of the seven TOSRA scales. In contrast, for two TOSRA scales, there was a significant deterioration in attitudes. Overall, the science methods course seemed to have a positive effect on elementary preservice teachers' attitudes.
