Abstract: Reports on science-specialist student teachers' conceptions about science and technology and corresponding priorities for school science. Students' conceptions were measured after interacting with a case documentary that depicted students collaborating in the development and evaluation of pneumatic-controlled robotic arms. Indicates that many student teachers developed more naturalistic perspectives on knowledge development in science and technology and corresponding pedagogical priorities. (Author/SOE)
