A proposed perception for using the philosophy of science in developing sustainability sciences and its impact on the growth mindset, correcting misconceptions patterns, and developing sustainability ethics among student teachers

The research aimed to improve the developing mindset and correct the patterns of misconceptions of some aspects of scientific knowledge related to science, its philosophy, sustainability and the nature of the relationship between them, and to develop the ethics of sustainability among the fourth-year students of the Faculty of Education(Physics),40 male and female students, and the third-year STEM students (Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics), 40 male and female students, by presenting a proposed perception for the role of the philosophy of science in relation to the various sciences and sustainability science as a multidisciplinary approach. The research tools were represented by the developing mindset scale, the misconception correction test, and the sustainability ethics test. The experimental method with a single-group design was used, and the research results came to confirm the existence of statistically significant differences between the average scores of student teachers in the pre- and post-applications of each of the developing mindset scale, the misconception correction test and the sustainability ethics test in favor of the post-application, as the value of "T" for the third-year STEM reached (47.89), (57.12), (32.47) respectively, and for the fourth-year (61.23), (40.26). (64,76) respectively, and all of them are significant values at the level (0.05), which indicates the effectiveness of the proposed concept in developing the research variables in the sample, which was confirmed by the high effect size values. Therefore, the current research recommends adopting the activities and processes of the philosophy of science in developing the sustainability science methodology.
