With more accessibility to information, allowed by the 4th Industrial Revolution, the competence to select, connect and adopt information searched is becoming more important than memorized knowledge for problem solving, resulting in growing emphasis on character competence in school curriculums. As practice is becoming more emphasized in character education, possibility of character education has been raised in subjects including science. This study is to understand recognition of primary and secondary school teachers on practice and result of character education in science. The teachers understand the necessity of character education and are satisfied with the result. The most common method of character education in science is collaborative activities, including group work, while separate character education programs are rarely adopted. As suitable chapters for character education, those on scientific methods, nature of science, and SSI chapter are suggested, rather than those of specific knowledge. It is recognized that the support of parents is most important for success of character education, and as for the challenges in character education, lack of time and results-oriented atmosphere are pointed out.
