Abstract

This research is aimed to determine the level of self-efficacy in teaching coordination chemistry, chemical thinking, and the conceptual understanding of coordination chemistry and the relationship between them among pre- and in-service chemistry teachers. Data collection tools were prepared, which are: a self-efficacy in teaching scale, a test of chemical thinking, and a test of conceptual understanding of coordination chemistry. The sample included (52) male and female students in the fourth year of the Chemistry Department at the Faculty of Education, and (20) male and female teachers in secondary schools. The results showed that there is a statistically significant difference at p<0.01 between pre-service and in-service teachers in self-efficacy in teaching in favor of in-service teachers, the absence of a statistically significant difference at the significance level of p<0.05 between pre and in-service teachers in chemical thinking. The results also revealed a statistically significant difference at the significance level of p<0.01 between pre and in-service teachers in the level of conceptual understanding of coordination chemistry in favor of in-service teachers, and the existence of a statistically significant correlation between the self-efficacy in teaching and chemical thinking level and conceptual understanding of coordination chemistry level among pre and in-service teachers.
