Integrated Science Course is an interdisciplinary subject which covers chemistry, physics, biology, geography ambit. Compared with traditional departmental teaching, it integrates separated courses into an organic whole by logic sequence of multi-knowledge, meanwhile, expands knowledge to the field of science, technology and society. At present, China has been developing Integrated Science Course in junior middle school in some region. Teachers play irreplaceable role on teaching integrated science and their perspective also make strong influence on Teaching Effectiveness. Therefore, my research focuses on perspective from science teachers and its influence on Curriculum implementation. In this thesis, I made a survey on Science teachers from three regions where there is Integrated Science Course implementation.My thesis is composed by three parts. The first part is research on science education, perspective from science teachers and the influence factors on Curriculum implementation by method of literature search. This part is theory research which lay the foundation of my whole thesis. From the second part, I made comparative investigation of perspective from science teachers and its influence on Curriculum implementation from there regions by the method of questionnaire survey and in-depth interview, this part also shows deep analysis on current status of curriculum implementation by regions. The last part of thesis is the summarization of my research conclusion. In this part, I took the status of curriculum implementation by regions for reference, and provided an effective solution for development of Integrated Science Course.My research conclusion is as below, science teachers do not have an accordant curriculum perspective especially those from different regions; There exist difference of Integrated Science Course implementation among regions. The perspective of science teacher makes strong influence on the curriculum implement and teaching Effectiveness; In order to better develop the Integrated Science course, I suggest to establishing a systemic cultivation mechanism for science teacher to enhance their professional knowledge.Due to the present situation, we are facing unbalanced development of integrated science course from different regions. The purpose of my thesis is, through my research on science teachers, to know how to make improvement for integrated science course implementation and to provide significant reference for development of China integrated science education.
