Changes in Perceptions and Attitudes of Pre-Service Postgraduate Secondary Science Teachers: A Comparative Study of Programmes in Israel, England and Wales.
Thompson, David; Orion, Nir
Research in Science and Technological Education, v17 n2 p165-92 Nov 1999
Describes the development of English, Welsh, and Israeli preservice secondary science teachers from immediately before to immediately after their initial teacher education courses. Finds that all students passed through a dynamic process of transformation and changed their perceptions about teaching, but the British students' ideas were more progressive and more professionally positive than the Israeli students' ideas.
