Procedure
: This
study
was
undertaken
with the
assumption
that
student
opinions
and
reactions
are
valid
to
use
as

and the
characteristics

t
he
effective

Conclusions
: The
data
secured
through
the
techniques
used
in this
investigation
seems
to
indicate
that:
1
. The
outstanding
characteristics
of the
effective
science
teacher
are the
ability
to
explain
clearly
and
expert
knowledge
of
subject
matter
.
2
.
Demonstrations
,
laboratory
and
field
trips
received
the
highest
ratings
as
instructional
procedures
.
3
. The
data
concerning
the
responses
of
students
regarding
science
courses
shows
a
wide
difference
of
opinion
.
However
, a
very
high
percentage
of the
students
believed
that the
study
of
science
is
valuable
,
interesting
and
important
for
all
students
.
4
. The
four
groups
of
respondents
were in
general
most
interested
in
two
areas
;
first
, that
area
concerning
information
about
themselves
and their
personal
welfare-topics
such
as
reproduction
,
heredity
, the
human
body
and the
nature
and
control
of
disease
. The
other
area
of
particular
interest
deals
with those
things
of
current
importance
in
everyday
life
.
Such
an
area
includes
the
nature
and
control
of
matter
and
energy
and the
basic
principles
of
physics
and
chemistry
.
