Prospective Mathematics Teachers' Beliefs About the Teaching of Mathematics
Bu çalışmanın amacı, matematik öğretmen adaylarının matematiğin öğretimi ile ilgili inançlarını araştırmaktır. Araştırma, Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi ve Gazi Üniversitesi dördüncü sınıfta okuyan 79 matematik eğitimi öğrencisiyle yürütülmüştür. Matematiğin Öğretimi ile ilgili inançlar ölçeği araştırmacılar tarafından geliştirilmiştir. Bu çalışma, bir kesitlemesine izleme araştırmasıdır. Çalışmanın sonuçlan şunları göstermektedir 1.Matematiğin öğretimi ile ilgili inançlar açısından ODTÜ ve Gazi Üniversitesinde okuyan matematik öğretmen adaylarının ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmaktadır; 2. Matematiğin öğretimi ile ilgili inançları açısından erkeklerle kızların ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark yoktur.
Matematik Öğretmen Adaylarının Matematiğin Öğretimi ile İlgili İnançları
The purpose of this study was to investigate prospective mathematics teachers' beliefs about the teaching of mathematics. The reseaıch was conducted on 79 fourth year students enrolled at the Mathematics Teacher Education programs at Middle East Technical University and Gazi University. A 'Beliefs about the Teaching of Mathematics Scale' was developed by the researchers. The design of the preseni study is that of a cross-sectional survey. The results of the study indicate mat: 1. there is a statistically signifıcant difference between the mean scores of prospective mathematics teachers at METU and those at Gazi University in terms of beliefs about the teaching of mathematics, and 2. there is no statistically significant difference betvreen the mean scores of males and females in terms of beliefs about the teaching of mathematics.
