dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study is to investigate science student teachers' ideas about the 'gene' concept. This study focuses on the following questions: What kind of descriptions do science student teachers ascribe to gene? What categories can be derived from these descriptions in terms of common features? A total of 140 participating students, who were studying to become primary science teachers at the Ahmet Kelesoglu Faculty of Education of Selcuk University in Turkey, participated in this study. To reveal participating students' ideas about the 'gene' concept they were asked to respond two open questions: (1) What is a gene in your opinion? (2) The participating students were asked to complete a free word association test. In the test, the term 'gene' was presented as a stimulus word. Data obtained from the questions were analyzed and the frequencies of the responses were classified in different categories. The results are compared with related literature and recommendations are provided.en_US
