Abstract This paper examines the influence of personal histories on the formation of early role identity as inquiry‐oriented science teachers. Two cases selected from a multicase study of 12 secondary science student teachers are used to illustrate the development of inquiry orientation. These cases represent two extremes in a continuum ranging from didactic practice to successful use of structured inquiry. The role of learners' personal histories on their teaching identity development and implications for preparing inquiry‐based science teachers are discussed. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
