20.500.12556/DKUM-88179 Predictive power of biology teacher's self-efficacy on acceptability and application of virtual and hands-on dissections Hands-on dissections of animals are traditionally regarded as an essential part of biology education. Nowadays, regardless of the reported educational benefits, there is a gradual change in the concept and acceptance of hands-on dissection, leading in many cases to its abandonment in schools and its replacement with alternatives such as 3D models, figurines, plastination and computer-based alternatives. However, the position of hands-on dissection has recently been challenged, mostly by computer-supported alternatives. The aim of the study was to explore whether teacher self-efficacy can be recognized as a predictor of the application of the different kinds of animals in hands-on and virtual dissections in Biology lessons. Based on responses from 405 Czech Biology teachers there are differences in the acceptability and implementation of organisms for hands-on and virtual dissection. It was established, that self-efficacy is not a predictor of either the acceptability of organisms or actual behaviour in both variants of dissection. biology lessons biology teachers hands-on dissection teacher self-efficacy virtual dissection true true true Scientific Methodical Center Angleški jezik Angleški jezik Članek v reviji 2024-04-11 03:49:19 2024-07-23 14:40:18 2024-07-24 04:40:29 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2023 0 0 str. 188-205 no. 2 Vol. 81 2023 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2023-02-06 2023-03-15 2023-04-12 37.091.33 151844355 10.33225/pec/23.81.188 1822-7864 RAZ_Havlickova_Veronika_2023.pdf RAZ_Havlickova_Veronika_2023.pdf 1 DD09B0DC334CD0CACF954F90F96BB320 ef0534ed84159456b859ca4afacc35b977e9ce42f64506048ffa5747b4e1ab3a 1d4bf486-48ee-11ef-8217-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=181732 https://doi.org/10.33225/pec/23.81.188 0 351039d7-48ee-11ef-8217-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=181733 Fakulteta za naravoslovje in matematiko 0 0 0
