Abstract

The nature of Science must exist in Science learning. However, the most widely used source, the science textbooks, do not have a similar framework to the nature of Science. Science teachers need to use learning resources that are in line with the nature of Science, one of which is Adapted Primary Literature (APL). This study aims to investigate the science teachers' perceptions of APL and identify the characteristics related to these perceptions. A questionnaire regarding teachers' perceptions had been completed by 29 science teachers in Bandung. The data from the questionnaire indicated that science teachers' perceptions of APL is apparently high. Teachers' scientific publications experience was considered as a characteristic related to their perception of APL. Gender, birth generation, teaching experience, and school status are not regarded as related characteristics on teachers' perceptions of APL. The results suggested that science teachers' training regarding APL use in science class should be carefully designed.
