Yoon, Susan; Pedretti, Erminia; Pedretti, Larry; Hewitt, Jim; Perris, Kirk; Van Oostveen, Roland – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2006
In this study, we hypothesize that cases demonstrating exemplary practice in the science classroom can be used as a source for learning content and pedagogical skills that will improve teachers' self-efficacy beliefs. Twelve preservice elementary science teachers are followed as they participate in a case and case method activity illustrating the…
