study was conducted in order to examine the content knowledge of mathematics
teachers and to determine their views on probability issues. In the study, the
case study model was used from the qualitative research designs. The
participants of the study were six elementary mathematics teachers who is
Turkey’s north-east province who served. Teachers participating in the study
were selected by quota sampling method. The criteria of the study were
determined as teachers’ masters and professional seniority. The data of the
study were collected by semi-structured interview form. In the form of
semi-structured interviews, teachers were asked questions of cognitive and
affective questions related to the adequacy of probability information. Content
analysis method was used in the data analysis. As a result of the analyzes show
that the teachers considered the probability content knowledge is sufficient,
but did not find the pedagogical content knowledge sufficient. Another result
of the study is that some teachers do not know the concept of discrete event
and independent event. Therefore, teachers have difficulty in distinguishing
between discrete event and independent event concepts. </span> <span style="font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;font-size:9pt;">    </span> </div>}, number={1}, publisher={Bartin University}
