The aim of this study was to develop pre-service science teachers’ self-determined
motivation toward environment before, after and five months following the
environmental course activities guided by self-determination theory. The sample of
the study was 33 pre-service science teachers who participated in an environmental
science course. This course included various environmental problems guided by selfdetermination
theory, group discussions and class discussions. Data were gathered by
administration of motivation toward environment and amotivation toward
environment scaling to pre-service science teachers. The results of the study
illustrated that pre-service science teachers’ intrinsic motivation increased after the
course activities and five months following the course. PSTs’ negative capacity
beliefs which refer to lack of capacity beliefs causing amotivation toward
environment declined after the course activities and in the follow-up measurement.
Significant results could not be found regarding other subscales of motivation toward
environment and amotivation toward environment scales. These findings suggest that
pre-service science teachers’ self-determined motivation toward environment was
developed throughout the environmental activities guided by self-determination
theory. However, there is a need to study with the larger sample and make a longlasting
research to be able to find more significant results.
