Abstract

This paper reports the findings of a study conducted within a National Science Foundation GK-12 project called the Boat-of-Knowledge in the Science Classroom in which civil engineering graduate students (Fellows) are expected to create and deliver inquiry-based lessons in high school science classrooms. A phenomenological case study technique is used to examine the transcripts of reflections, meeting discussions and presentations, classroom observations and lesson plan texts for evidence of teacher self-efficacy in developing and presenting inquiry-based lesson plans in science classrooms. Findings indicate that while the Fellows at times present content that is engaging and follows an inquiry-based lesson plan design, they lack teacher self-efficacy when in the classroom.
