Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to analyze the problems related to verbal and visual representations posed by pre-service mathematics teachers. This study was conducted with 70 pre-service teachers studying in Primary Education in Mathematics Department in a public university during 2010-2011 academic year autumn term. Data were gathered through a problem posing test prepared appropriate to verbal and visual representations. Problem sentences written by pre-service teachers were classified as “problem,” “not problem,” and “blank.” As a result of this classification, answers evaluated as “problem” were characterized as “assignment”, “relational”, and “conditional”. Findings of the study indicated that the success of the preservice teachers were generally low in problem posing appropriate to different representations. Besides,it was determined that pre-service teachers gave more place to “assignment” type of problems posed appropriate to verbal and visual representations.

Özet

Bu çalısma, matematik ögretmeni adaylarının sözel ve görsel temsillere yönelik kurdukları problemlerin analizini amaçlamıstır. Çalısma 2010-2011 güz döneminde bir devlet üniversitesinin Ilkögretim Matematik Ögretmenligi Bölümü’nde ögrenim gören 70 ögretmen adayı ile yürütülmüstür. Veri toplama aracı olarak sözel ve görsel temsillere yönelik hazırlanan Problem Kurma Testi kullanılmıstır. Ögretmen adaylarının yazmıs oldukları problem cümleleri “problem”, “problem degil” ve “bos” seklinde sınıflandırılmıstır. Bu sınıflama sonucunda “problem” olarak degerlendirilen yanıtlar ise “ödev”, “iliskisel” ve “kosullu” olarak sınıflandırılmıstır. Çalısmanın bulgularına göre, adayların farklı temsillere yönelik problem kurma basarılarının genel olarak düsük oldugu belirlenmistir. Ayrıca ögretmen adaylarının sözel ve görsel temsillere yönelik her bir problem kurma maddesinde “ödev” seklindeki problem cümlelerine daha fazla yer verildikleri tespit edilmistir.
