Özet

Problem statement: For individual and social life to be in line with the information age, the individual should have such characteristics as being able to access information, maintain a scientific point of view on events, and being able to analyse and evaluate events. This can only be achieved by teaching students about the skills involved in the scientific process skills. The research pointed out that teachers, who are expected to teach science process skills, often have inadequate science process skills themselves. This study aims to provide insight into student teachers' skills and the factors affecting these skills.
