The objective of this study is to study the levels of participation in the teaching performance of the sciences teachers candidates while they offer interdisciplinary approach and to monitor their interdisciplinary situation in the field of interdisciplinary approach. The study is designed according to the situation study that is the lower dimension of the quality research approach. The study group, a state university in the Mediterranean Region of the Faculty of Education of Science Teaching 4. There are 15 teachers who participate in the classroom and special teaching methods II. The participants submitted 40 minutes of presentation individually in the seven-week application process. The teaching candidates were observed by two researchers during the presentation and discussions were made with the presenting participant at the end of the presentation. Class-in-class observation records at the presentation moment and semi-configured conversations at the presentation end were used as a data collection tool. Observation forms and video recordings were used. In the semi-configured interviews, eight questions were asked to the teachers candidates. The method of content analysis is used in the analysis of data. The observation forms were analyzed by two researchers who observed, while the interview transcripts were analyzed together with six researchers. The majority of participants did not provide the materials included in the observation form during the observation (the use of interdisciplinary approach in the presentation, the participation in interdisciplinary approach activities, the proof of their examples using interdisciplinary approach). However, although the interdisciplinary approach is present in the National Education Ministry’s teaching program, the fact that the participants are not fully aware of this situation is another important conclusion obtained from the discussions. In the classroom observation findings observed that teachers’ candidates included interdisciplinary approaches in their teaching stories. However, the findings of the interview have concluded that some participants do not have knowledge of interdisciplinary approach, while some participants do not have a deep knowledge of interdisciplinary approach because they do not have a conscious application of the approach.
