Abstract

The purpose of the research is to determine the impacts of science fiction films on prospective science teachers’ views about science-technology-society. Designed in accordance with case study, the research was conducted with 20 prospective science teachers studying at the second grade of primary science education department of a university in Istanbul during the spring term of 2012-2013 academic year. The research lasted for 5 weeks and 10 films based on science fiction were watched in this process. When the results obtained from the research are evaluated, it is revealed that the views of prospective teachers about the science-technology-society have both accurate and sufficient qualities before and after the application. In addition to this result, it was also determined that the opinions of the prospective teachers differed both quantitatively and qualitatively after the application. In this regard, it can be said that the influence of science fiction films on the views about science-technologysociety have contributed positively.
