The importance of the concept of mathematics literacy and the fact that it is seen as a remedy for eliminating the gap between school mathematics and life necessitated a more detailed discussion of the concept. In this study, it is aimed to determine students’ thoughts and evaluations about mathematical literacy problems in a research process in which mathematical literacy problems are solved with middle school students. The study group consisted of 105 students: 27 fifth grade, 28 sixth grade, 25 seventh grade and 25 eighth grade. In the 98-hour mathematical literacy problem solving application, the data obtained from the diaries filled out by the students on a weekly basis were examined and their opinions about mathematical literacy problems were determined. In this context, students’ views (i) assessments about the solution of mathematical literacy problems (ii) assessments of the characteristics of mathematical literacy problems (iii) other assessments are divided into categories. The students’ views also pointed out that there is a suitable environment for mathematics literacy applications. The results were found to be highly consistent with the mathematical literacy literature.
