Özet |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate mathematics teacher candidates' conception of sets based on definition of a set, representations of sets, relationship between these representations, showing elements of a set, and concept of subset. The methodology of the current study is case study. By taking opinions of the experts from the field of mathematics education,"Sets Knowledge Test" was developed by the researchers and applied to all participants. Among the results of the study, teacher candidates were found more successful in providing an example for sets than in defining sets. Another result of the study was that teacher candidates had difficulty in using rule method and that this difficulty resulted from teacher candidates' misconceptions of rule method as well as errors in mathematical operations. |
