الملخص EN

The present research aimed at identifying the effectiveness of a suggested program in Nano Sciences and Technology (NST) for developing the evaluative thinking skills and awareness of Nano technology issues and their biological and environmental applications among student teachers of sciences.

To achieve the research aim, a list of Nano sciences and technology topics, the suggested program in Nano sciences and technology, work sheets for students, an evaluative thinking test, and a scale of the awareness of NST issues and their biological and environmental applications were prepared.

The research group consisted of (50) male and female students in the third year biological and environmental sciences section, Faculty of Education-Assiut University.

After conducting the research experiment, and the statistical treatments, the research results showed the effectiveness of the suggested program in NST, in developing the evaluative thinking skills and the awareness of the NST and their biological and environmental applications among student teachers of sciences.

The research recommended the importance of implying NST and their applications at the university and pre university education in order to cope with scientific innovations.

Also, the research recommended the necessity of developing evaluative thinking skills among learners to cope with scientific issues and innovations.
