Abstract The literature suggests using explicit nature of science teaching to improve students' understanding of the nature of science (NOS), but the effectiveness of this approach still needs to be strengthened. In recent years, emerging research in the field of argumentation has shown that student participating in argumentation has a positive effect on improving their views of nature of science. Based on the review of international NOS education literature, this study explored the influence of integrating explicit nature of science teaching and argumentation to improve learners' views of nature of science. This study provided recommendations for teaching nature of science. And it also provides a basis for relevant research on effective nature of science teaching in the future.
