“…Studies that reported the effect of teacher training on the improvements of teachers' and students' SRS supported this view (Gillies, 2011;Kocagul & Unal Coban, 2022;Smit et al, 2018). However, although the results of some studies informed about the need for training of teachers (Kocagul Saglam & Unal Coban, 2020;Khan & Krell, 2021), teachers' training studies on SRS were rare and existing studies were conducted extensively with teachers in the pre-service (Alonzo & Kim, 2018;Chowning et al, 2012;Gillies, 2011;Hogan et al, 1999;Jacops et al, 2007;Sedova et al, 2016). Furthermore, studies on teachers' training regarding SRS focused heavily on only one reasoning skill (Chowning et al, 2012;Jacops et al, 2007;Wilhelm et al, 2018) or reasoning skills that are different from the skills in the context of this study (Koenig et al, 2012;Tadesse et al, 2017;Wilhelm et al, 2018) or were conducted with different branches of teachers out of science (Jacops et al, 2007).…”
