This study was conducted with an interpretivist qualitative approach (Strauss & Corbin, 1990; Şimşek & Yıldırım, 2006) and focused on the preservice elementary science teachers’ understandings of NOS. Data collection consisted of various qualitative data collection methods such as an open-ended questionnaire, supported with interviews, video recorded classroom discussions guided by the researchers, and participants’ written reports and drawings of some activities. The VNOS-C open-ended questionnaire, combined with interviews (Lederman, Abd- El-Khalick, Bell, & Schwartz, 2002), were used to assess preservice teachers’ views of NOS before and after the intervention to determine change in conceptions. Data for the study were collected through a five week period in a science methods course.
