Description
The primary purpose of this study was to investigate teachers’ knowledge and practices on science process skills in teaching science at the middle school level. The design adopted was a descriptive research design. Four townships were randomly selected from four districts in Yangon Region. Two high schools and two middle schools were selected by using a stratified random sampling technique. The population in this study consists of (640) Grade 5 students and (77) teachers who are teaching science. Three instruments: knowledge and practices questionnaires for junior science teachers and science achievement test were employed. Teachers’ knowledge and practices questionnaires involved (33) items. Science achievement test for students involved (18) items. One-Way ANOVA, dependent samples t-test and a correlation technique were used in this study. As a result of the research, there was a significant difference between experienced teachers and inexperienced teachers of knowledge and practices on science process skills. And, there was also a significant difference between basic and integrated science process skills of those teachers. Moreover, teachers who were well- trained got higher mean for knowledge and practices than teachers who were partially trained. Also, it was found that science teachers are familiar with basic science process skills. The research findings proved that teachers’ knowledge and students’ achievement were moderately related and teachers’ practices and students’ achievement were not correlated in all the selected schools. This indicated that if teachers’ knowledge on science process skills is high, they can arrange their teaching learning situation more systematically to teach their students more effectively.
