Abstract
This study was conducted with the aim of questioning Integrated undergraduate and graduate university Teacher Study students (N = 132) about their scientific literacy. For this purpose, a questionnaire was prepared with questions from the Science and Social Study textbooks. Questions were grouped according to Bloom's Taxonomy cognitive domain: Group 1 (Level 1 and Level 2 outcomes: list, name, identify), Group 2 (Level 3 and Level 4 outcomes: classify, relate, separate), and Group 3. (Level 5 and Level 6 outcomes: choose, evaluate and select). The research results show a low level of scientific literacy (51% correct answers). Students showed a good level of knowledge in the first group of questions (69%), and inadequate level of knowledge in the third (48%) and second group (38%) of questions. The main problems observed were sorting plants and animals that live in rivers, lakes, and the sea. Students showed an inadequate knowledge of herald of spring. The results of this study can help in students' self- evaluation of knowledge. In order to achieve an appropriate level of scientific literacy for university students, recommendations were made for their development within the curriculum of Integrated undergraduate and graduate university Teacher Study
