At the end, as the result of the data collection process, which lasted for a total of five months, the students’ opinions showed that; Mathematics teaching supported by authentic activities brought along features such as familiar problems, well-defined tasks, cognitive support, authentic assessment and reflection. In addition, it was seen from the student data who participated in all of the authentic tasks that; Students who participated in authentic tasks with their peers, teachers, or parents had higher completion rates.","PeriodicalId":412503,"journal":{"name":"Necatibey Eğitim Fakültesi Elektronik Fen ve Matematik Eğitimi Dergisi","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127166123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, instruction supported with the drama method was employed in addition to traditional teaching. The study followed a quasi-experimental research design with a control group, and the participants of the study were 83 second year students who studied at an Education Faculty, in the west of Turkey. To collect data, an Electrostatics Concept Test and a Drama Method Attitude Scale were used. As a result of the research, regarding the concept test, scores of the experimental group supported with drama-assisted instruction were significantly higher than the control group. It was found that the experimental group drama attitude mean score was 78.9% positive. According to the results of the research, drama alone is not a magic wand like Harry Potter's wand, but it is a more successful method than traditional methods.","PeriodicalId":412503,"journal":{"name":"Necatibey Eğitim Fakültesi Elektronik Fen ve Matematik Eğitimi Dergisi","volume":"2007 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128958445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TPACK levels and self-confidence were assessed using scales and qualitative data from interviews, with the Fink Taxonomy used to analyze the interviews and determine the significance of the LBD-TPACK teaching process in terms of learning outcomes. The results showed a significant increase in pre-service teachers’ TPACK scores and TPACK self-confidence scores after the teaching process (α=0.05, p=0.00). Qualitative data supported these findings, demonstrating that pre-service teachers had achieved significant learning outcomes by the end of the process.

As a result of this research, it was observed that the concept images of university students were grouped into two categories as “area” and “volume”. It was determined that the participants acted with an intuitive approach without having to establish a relationship between the concept definition and the concept image, the ∬ in the symbol of the double integral caused the participants to think of it as a two-dimensional geometric structure and their image of the concept of the single integral was very active. The findings obtained in this research shows that there are problems in understanding the concept of the double integral, which is the first step of generalizing to multiple integrals, and that educator should produce solutions for this subject.","PeriodicalId":412503,"journal":{"name":"Necatibey Eğitim Fakültesi Elektronik Fen ve Matematik Eğitimi Dergisi","volume":"423 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132583605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data were evaluated with descriptive and non-parametric statistical methods. Results showed that the teachers used math activities with games, art, drama activities and used limited methods to assess whether children have learned mathematics concepts. In addition, most teachers stated that data analysis, proof, and probability cannot be taught in preschool.

The collected data in the study were analyzed using descriptive analysis. Analysis showed that the prospective science teachers' individual arguments about the discrepant event were weak and insufficient to explain the discrepancy. When prospective science teachers are provided with additional information and encouraged to cooperate effectively and allowed to work as a group, the quality and explanatory power of the arguments increased.
