Abstract

 The aim of this research is evaluating science and math teachers' professional skills (both common and specialized skills) in middle school level and investigation into their success level in teaching in order to realize the existing lacks. The aim is also to offer suggestions for quality improvement of teachers' skills. In addition to this, the relationship between some impacting factors with teachers' common skills and specialized skills, and also the effective factors on their success or lack of success in using teaching skills have been assessed. The statistical population of the study is consisted of Tehran middle school teachers in year 2003-2004 (1381-1382 Hijri Shamsi). The statistical sample includes 448 middle school teachers who answered the self-evaluation questionnaire, 92 middle-school principals who have answered the "science and math teachers' skills evaluation questionnaire", and also the 48 science and math teachers in their classes who were closely observed and were assessed. The research findings showed that there are shortages in some of the teaching methods, such as teaching methods for improving practical-skills of the students, and that constant education for teachers needed in order to enable them to coordinate with teaching goals, teaching methods, and math and science books. As well, the research findings showed that firstly, the teachers being put under investigation connect the lesson contents only to a low amount to the students' real life, and secondly, the teachers are not guides for the students and, rather than providing the student with hypothesis-making and scientific thinking and problem-solving, they offer the program content to students' minds in inactive ways. On the other hand in teacher-training programs and in-service trainings, there is no tight relationship and co-ordination with modern teaching learning theories and methods. Therefore, these programs require revision and significant modifications.
