NATURAL SCIENCE TEXTBOOK AND THE CURRENT PREPAREDNESS OF TEACHERS IN TEACHING THIS SUBJECT
Abstract
In developed European countries, the content of Natural Science (Science) has played a significant role in national curricula over the past thirty years. Understanding the concept of Natural Science (Science) content, which is an important component of scientific literacy and integrates natural sciences, history of science, sociology of science, and philosophy of psychology, is essential for teachers and students to be scientifically literate. This understanding involves a combination of key structures of scientific activity and the knowledge of natural science, which are necessary for scientific literacy [1,2,3].
