초록
The objective of this study was to know about the understanding of macroevolution among biology teachers regarded as contributing factor in education. Especially, the focus of this study was to speculate the status of the conception of macroevolution, and then the relationships with several factors such as natural selection, acceptance of the theory of evolution, the nature of science, understanding of time, religiosity, and the perception of the importance of evolution. To do this research, five kinds of instruments were chosen and developed. The subjects were 94 in-service and pre-service biology teachers. It was found that teachers didn't have excellent understanding in macroevolution and they were difficult to understand the concept of deep time. Religiosity affected the acceptance of the theory of evolution negatively. The knowledge of natural selection associated with the one of macroevolution. It was also found that the nature of science correlates positively with the knowledge of macroevolution and natural selection, and the acceptance of the theory of evolution. It is suggested that the enforcement of the nature of science through biology teacher education programs to lessen the influence of the religiosity. Further studies for associations among factors affecting macroevolution of science teachers with various academic background basis are required because they are in charge of evolution education in classrooms regardless of their academic majors.
Abstract
The objective of this study was to know about the understanding of macroevolution among biology teachers regarded as contributing factor in education. Especially, the focus of this study was to speculate the status of the conception of macroevolution, and then the relationships with several factors such as natural selection, acceptance of the theory of evolution, the nature of science, understanding of time, religiosity, and the perception of the importance of evolution. To do this research, five kinds of instruments were chosen and developed. The subjects were 94 in-service and pre-service biology teachers. It was found that teachers didn't have excellent understanding in macroevolution and they were difficult to understand the concept of deep time. Religiosity affected the acceptance of the theory of evolution negatively. The knowledge of natural selection associated with the one of macroevolution. It was also found that the nature of science correlates positively with the knowledge of macroevolution and natural selection, and the acceptance of the theory of evolution. It is suggested that the enforcement of the nature of science through biology teacher education programs to lessen the influence of the religiosity. Further studies for associations among factors affecting macroevolution of science teachers with various academic background basis are required because they are in charge of evolution education in classrooms regardless of their academic majors.
