[Assessment of Dimensionality and Structural Stability of Pre-service Science Teachers' Ability to Engage in Reflections].

ABSTRACT: This study examines the reflective ability-the ability to reflect with quality on a lesson's aspects-of pre-service students teachers. The present study pursues a subject-specific focus in the natural sciences, as there have been only a few such studies to this date. To this end, the students conduct two different 90 min lessons, each featuring distinct experiments from the fields of biology and chemistry, but with the identical learning objective of scientific experimentation as a method of acquiring knowledge. Subsequent to the lesson, the students engage in subject-specific reflection on the lessons. It is determined whether the structure of the subject-specific reflection ability can be consistently recorded and to what extent this structure is stable over multiple teaching situations.
