Bu çalışmanın amacı, fen öğretmen adaylarının fen öğretimine yönelik öz yeterlik inançları ile kolektif yeterliğin arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Özel öğretim yöntemleri dersinde kayıtlı dört öğretmen adayı ile bu çalışma yürütülmüştür. Bu katılımcılar, bir grup halinde çalışarak dersin gereklerini yerine getirmeye çalışmışlardır. Bir dönem boyunca, düzenli aralıklarla görüşme yapılarak veri toplanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda, kolektif yeterlik kaynaklarının fen öğretimine yönelik öz yeterlik inançlarının iki boyutu olan fen öğretim yeterliği ile sonuç beklentisinin gelişmesinde önemli bir rolü olduğu saptanmıştır. Doğrudan yaşantı kaynağının katılımcılar tarafından sürekli vurgulanması dikkat çekmiştir. Sonuç olarak, fen öğretmen eğitimcilerinin derslerini kolektif yeterlik geliştirmeye yönelik düzenlemesi önerilmektedir.

A Study on Examining Relationship between Pre-Service Teachers’ Collective Efficacy and Science Teaching Efficacy Beliefs

Öz

It was aimed to investigate the relationship between collective efficacy and science teaching efficacy beliefs of pre-service teachers. The study was composed of four junior pre-service science teachers working together to fulfill the tasks of a science methods course. They were interviewed at regular intervals during one semester. The results revealed that the sources of collective efficacy played an essential role in the development of personal science teaching efficacy and science teaching outcome expectancy of the group members. The participants most emphasized the effect of the positive influence of mastery experience. It was concluded that science teacher educators could consider collective efficacy when designing their courses to improve pre-service teachers’ science teaching efficacy beliefs.
