Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine pre-service elemantary math teachers’ opinions about mathematics teaching competence. To collect research data, ‘Matematics teaching competencies’ instrument was used. The sample of the study consisted of 300 preservice elemantary mathematics teachers, whom were their last year to graduate, from 3 different university in Turkey. Research was a descriptive study which was a survey model. Descriptive statistic methods was used to analyze the research data. Research results indicated that Pre-service mathematics teachers found themselves sufficient in terms of problem solving, communication, associating and reasoning competencies. As a result of this study suggestions were developed towards improving teacher candidates’ mathematics teaching competency

Özet

Bu araştırmanın amacı, ilköğretim matematik öğretmen adaylarının matematik öğretimi yeterliklerine ilişkin görüşlerinin belirlenmesidir. Araştırma verilerinin toplanması için “Matematik öğretimi yeterlikleri” ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın örneklemini 3 farklı üniversitenin ilköğretim matematik öğretmenliği bölümü son sınıfında okumakta olan 300 öğretmen adayı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma tarama modelinde betimsel bir çalışmadır. Araştırma verilerinin analizi için betimsel istatistik yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçları öğretmen adaylarının kendilerini problem çözme, iletişim, ilişkilendirme ve akıl yürütme yeterlikleri bakımından genel olarak yeterli gördüklerini ortaya koymuştur. Sonuçta araştırma bulgularına dayalı olarak öğretmen adaylarının matematik öğretimi yeterliklerini geliştirmeye yönelik önerilerde bulunulmuştur
