The aim of the study was to examine nature of science (NOS) views of science teachers in project schools in Turkey. The sub-research questions of the study targeted at the relationships between the teachers' views on NOS in terms of different demographic features of the participant teachers. The participants were composed of convenience sample of 47 science teachers in different project schools in Turkey. Views on the Nature of Science-C questionnaire developed by Lederman, Abd-ElKhalick, Bell and Schwartz (2002), and a demographic data form developed by the researcher were utilized as the data collection tools. The data were collected via Google form application and analyzed via content analysis, one of the qualitative data analysis methods. The findings of the study showed that nature of science views of the participant science teachers were not in line with the contemporary views about nature of science.
