| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to survey and analyze the general status of preservice and inservice training curriculum for elementary and secondary science teachers in Japan and U.S.A. Results and Discussion:
1. In Japan; (1) The number of national colleges of education provides Preservice science course are as follows. In the Primary School Teachers Course:53, In the Lower Secondary Science Teachers Course:49, In Upper Secondary Science Teachers Course:13. (2) These 49 institutions are classified into following four groups as regards credit composition and the percentages for each were found as follows: Science Subjects are emphasized : 18.4%, Professional Education Subjects are emphasized:16.3%, Both science Subjects and Professional Education Subjects are required:34.7%, National Standard Teacher Certificate are required:34.7%. However, these institutions offer extensive Science and Professional Education Subjects from basic credit requirement to maximum number of credits. Therefore,

there is a variety of all national colleges of education as to credit composition for prospective secondary school science teacher.
2. In U.S.A. (1) A case study of IOWA-UPSTEP as a qualitative analysis was examined. (2) Two kinds of information was analyzed. These were the results of recent national survey of public and private colleges and universities for preservice science teacher training so called Matteis' Report, and Weiss' Report which was the results of elementary and secondary teachers throughout the United States. In the United States, each state has exclusive responsibility for the quality and content of science teacher preparation and certification in its own state. These states vary considerably in their requirements for elementary and secondary school science teachers. When comparing the example in the U.S.A. with those in Japan, it is unique in U.S.A. that most institutions offered and required students to take a general or a specialized science method course which integrate philosophy and practice of science teaching.
