Teaching Styles of Science Teachers

Abstract

Hasan METE & Selda BAKIR

This survey study was undertaken in order to research the teaching styles of science teachers in terms of teachers’ gender, professional seniority and their students’ learning styles. With this aim, a study group was formed from 32 science teachers and 1,494 secondary school students. The Teaching Style Inventory, Grasha-Riechman Learning Style Questionnaire and Individual Information Form were used as data collection tools. As a result of this current study, conducted with a view to examining the teaching styles of science teachers, it was determined that science teachers mostly preferred G3 (Facilitator/Personal model/Expert) and G4 (Representative/Facilitator/Expert) teaching styles, and that teachers' teaching styles did not show significant differences for either gender or professional seniority, but that there was a significant and weak relationship between science teachers' teaching styles and their students' learning styles.
