Abstract

Bu çalışma ortaokul matematik öğretmenlerinin olasılık konusundaki alan bilgilerini incelemek ve olasılık konularına yönelik görüşlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma desenlerinden durum çalışması modeli kullanılmıştır. Çalışmaya Türkiye’nin kuzey doğusunda yer alan bir ilde görev yapan altı ortaokul matematik öğretmeni katılmıştır. Çalışmaya katılan öğretmenler ölçüt örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilmiştir. Çalışmada ölçüt olarak öğretmenlerin yüksek lisans yapma durumları ve mesleki kıdemleri temel alınmıştır. Çalışmanın verileri yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu ile toplanmıştır. Yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formunda öğretmenlere olasılık bilgilerinin yeterliğine yönelik bilişsel ve duyuşsal alan soruları sorulmuştur. Çalışmada toplanan verileri içerik analizi uygulanmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda öğretmenlerin olasılık konusunda alan bilgilerini yeterli gördükleri ancak pedagojik alan bilgilerini yeterli bulmadıkları belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada ulaşılan bir diğer sonuç ise bazı öğretmenlerin ayrık olay ve bağımsız olayı kavramsal olarak bilmedikleridir. Bu nedenle öğretmenler ayrık olay ve bağımsız olay kavramlarını ayırt etmede güçlük yaşamaktadır.

Abstract

This
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.
