Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential of GeoGebra software for providing mathematical communication in the light of pre-service teachers' views. The research was designed as single-case holistic design and conducted with 16 pre-service mathematics teachers. An open-ended questionnaire was used as a data collection tool. The obtained qualitative data were analyzed by using content analysis. As a result of analysis, it was determined that GeoGebra software directly contributed to provide mathematical communication both by helping the use of the language of mathematics correctly and by contributing to provide dynamic connections between multiple representations of concepts. It was also found that GeoGebra software contributed to provide mathematical communication not only by helping the use of the language of mathematics in self-confidence but also the development of mathematical connections skills. In addition, It was detected that GeoGebra software contributed to provide mathematical communication by supplying discussion and cooperation learning environment. It was determined that the GeoGebra software had a significant potential to provide mathematical communication in the light of pre-service teachers' views.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı matematiksel iletişim sağlayabilmede GeoGebra yazılımının potansiyelini öğretmen adaylarının görüşleri ışığında incelemektir. Araştırmada yöntem olarak tekli durum holistik tasarımı kullanılmış ve araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 16 matematik öğretmeni adayı oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplama aracı olarak açık uçlu görüş formu kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen nitel veriler içerik analizi yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, GeoGebra yazılımı matematiksel dili doğru kullanmaya, kavramların farklı temsilleri arasında dinamik bir ilişki sağlamaya yardımcı olarak matematiksel iletişimin sağlanmasına doğrudan katkı sağladığı belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca GeoGebra yazılımı matematiksel dili özgüvenli bir şekilde kullanmaya, kavramları tartışma ve yardımlaşma ortamında çalışmaya, ilişkilendirme becerisinin gelişmesine yardımcı olarak matematiksel iletişimin sağlanabilmesine katkı sağladığı ortaya çıkmıştır. Matematik öğretmeni adaylarının görüşleri ışığında GeoGebra yazılımının matematiksel iletişimin sağlanmasında önemli bir potansiyeli olduğu belirlenmiştir.
