이 연구는 지구과학 예비교사와 초등 예비교사들이 과학 교과독서를 통해 과학도서와 독서에 대해 어떠한 의미를 부여하고 과학 교과독서 과정에서 과학교육에 대한 생각이 어떻게 반영되는지 비교하는 데 목적이 있었다. 연구를 위해 우리나라 중부지방에 위치한 교사 양성 대학에 다니는 지구과학교육을 전공하는 3학년 학생 24명과 초등교육을 전공하는 2학년 학생 25명을 연구대상으로 선정하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 지구과학 예비교사들은 교과독서를 과학 내용 지식을 습득하는데 많이 활용하였으나, 초등 예비교사들은 수업에 활용하기 위한 목적과 과학적인 흥미, 궁금증 해결을 위한 것으로 이용하고 있었다. 둘째, 지구과학 예비교사와 초등 예비교사들은 과학 관련 도서를 과학 교육에 활용하는 데에서도 생각 차이를 보이고 있었다. 지구과학 예비교사들이 과학도서를 수업에 활용하는 것에 대해 드물게 서술한 반면, 초등 예비교사들은 과학수업에 대해 적극적으로 서술하였다. 셋째, 과학 교과독서 관점에서 지구과학 예비교사들에 비해 초등 예비교사들이 더 적극적으로 교과독서의 의미를 부각시키고 있었다. 과학에서의 독서활동이 많은 효과가 있다는 연구결과들을 비춰보면 학교 현장 수업에서 교수전략으로서 과학 교과독서에 대한 연구가 폭넓게 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.
