Abstract
There is a growing body of research on developing effective strategies and curricula for integrating socioscientific issues (SSI) into science instruction. Despite the important progress achieved in the field, there is still a pressing need to investigate the readiness of science teachers to teach science through SSIs. To this end, the purpose of this study is to investigate biology teachers’ understanding of SSIs. Participants of this study were 102 in-service biology teachers. Data was collected through the Instrument for Assessing Pedagogical Content Knowledge for Biological Socioscientific Issues. The results indicated that the participants’ understanding of SSIs are inadequate to integrate the issues into their classroom.
