Cover Story: Teachers in training in primary education often have lack of knowledge, low levels of teaching self-efficacy, and negative emotions toward the teaching of physics. In this research, the influence of two teaching methodologies on the learning and teaching self-efficacy of teachers-in-training on optics content is compared. A sample of 173 trainee primary school teachers was used. The control group used an academic–expositional teaching methodology, and the experimental group used a practical methodology based on the use of STEM teaching tools. Measuring instruments were designed and applied before and after interventions to measure the evolution of cognitive and competence variables, in the short and long term. The results reveal statistically significant improvements in the knowledge level and in the teaching self-efficacy variables. View this paper
