This thesis deals with biology and science pre-servis teachers´ availability to teach by using of the constructivistic approach, particularly the preconceptions. Data collecting was based on the questionnaires which were distributed through 160 informants from four university faculties educating teachers within January ? March 2010. The answers of the informants were categorized and assessed both qualitatively and quantitatively. It was found that most of informants didn't know the expressions ?constructivistic teaching?, ?constructivism? and ?preconceptions?. They either had never heard these terms or they simply hadn't remembered them. While the meaning of the expression ?constructivism? was estimated by almost one half of the informants, the meaning of the term ?preconceptions? was familiar for less than a quarter of the informants. By the given example of the topic ?photosynthesis? and ?digestion? in the form of model preconceptions we found that the informants´ level of professional knowledge is quite high and they are able to teach this topic.
