Many recent findings have revealed that both the lecturers and student teachers in Papua New Guinea teacher training colleges have difficulty understanding lever concept. This study is based on a grade 6 content comparison test that was administered to student teachers of one of the teacher training college in Papua New Guinea (PNG). The purpose of this study is to comprehend the effectiveness of the science curriculum at the teacher training colleges in PNG. A test consisted of four lever concept questions were administered to a total of 41 year 3 student teachers from two separate classes. The study engaged both qualitative and quantitative method of data analysis collection. The findings exposed student teachers' limited understanding of lever concept and common misconceptions. Hence, the study proposes more effective ways to improve the standards of science education at the teacher training colleges in PNG.}, pages = {79--89}, title = {An Analysis of 6th Grade Science Topic on Levers Tested to Teacher Training College (TTC) Students in Papua New Guinea}, volume = {12}, year = {2019} }
