Intervention study investigates reflection skills in pre-service teachers, highlighting the need to improve evidence-informed practice.

Key Points

This research aims to determine how different seminar formats impact reflection skills and perceived usefulness of evidence-informed practice among pre-service teachers.
Two seminar formats compared: one focused on using research, the other on conducting research.
295 pre-service teachers from a primary education program participated in the study.
Data collected via online questionnaires at three points during the semester, measuring reflection skills and perceived usefulness of research.
Data analyzed using 2 × 3 mixed ANOVAs and hierarchical regression.
Both seminar formats improved the ability of pre-service teachers to critically reflect on research findings.
No significant differences were found between the two seminar formats in terms of reflection skills.
The perceived usefulness of evidence-informed practice did not significantly improve during the seminars.
Practical relevance and reflection skills were significant predictors of perceived usefulness, with seminar type having no influence on outcomes.
