“…Today's students will experience different forms on new technologies. Thus, students must acquire awareness on knowledge, skill and social impacts of these technologies in order for them to engage in the dialogue between policymakers and citizens and to make ethical decisions (Kolarova & Denev, 2012). Teachers are the ones that will provide basic knowledge and ethical decision-making ability to enable social literacy and awareness, and in order for teachers to raise qualified individuals who can adapt to the changing world, teachers themselves must possess such knowledge and skills in the first place and teacher education programs should be expected to provide these knowledge and skills to the teacher candidates.…”

The aim of this study is to evaluate science teacher candidates based on bioethical values, scientific literacy level and empathy skills and to determine their associations. Therefore, descriptive model was used for the study. The sample of the study consists total of 286 teacher candidates from first, second, third and fourth grade of Faculty of Education Science Teaching department. Results of the study revealed that bioethical values for “Benefits of Biotechnology Applications”, “Science and Ethics”, “Reproductive Technologies and Cloning”, “Controlling the Genetic Interventions” subscales were increased with school year in science teacher candidates. In addition, science literacy of science teacher candidates for “Nature of Science” and “Science-Technology-Society Relation” subscales were also increased with school year. The study also found a positive relation between bioethical values for two subscales of bioethical values, “Benefits of Biotechnology Applications” and “Controlling the Genetic Interventions”, and science literacy for “Nature of Science” subscales in science teacher candidates. Similarly, a positive relation was found between bioethical values for two subscales, “Benefits of Biotechnology Applications” and “Controlling the Genetic Interventions”, and science literacy for “Science-Technology-Society Relation” subscale in science teacher candidates. Analysis results showed a positive relation between bioethical values and empathy skills of science teacher candidates. In other words, the higher the teacher’s empathy skills, the higher their bioethical values.

“…It has been argued that moral dilemmas can be a form of "mental baggage" weighing on young people (Rundgren et al, 2016). Teaching bioethics can enhance students' critical thinking abilities and decision-making skills around biomedicine-related moral dilemmas, especially when transformative forms of reasoning are mobilized through small group discussions and reflections (Kedraka & Kourkoutas, 2018;Gutierez, 2015;Kolarova & Denev, 2012;Jarvis, 2004). As Nader, Hernández, Acosta, Hernandez, and Gómez (2020) argue, a core question arises concerning Institutes of The selected topics were described to the class and students were instructed to form four groups of three to research one of the topics (with the help of a list of relevant literature).…”
