Abstract

Meaningful and lasting learning is possible with the teaching of concepts that are the building blocks of knowledge. It is important to teach concepts in Social Studies and Science courses where concepts are included a lot. Therefore, teachers who teach social studies and science courses should first be proficient in concept teaching. In the research carried out in line with this goal, a study was carried out on what are the opinions of the teacher candidates who will be the practitioners of the course in the teaching of these sciences and their evaluations regarding concept teaching. Qualitative research methods were used in this study to determine the opinions of the participants. In the research, unelected sampling method was used. In addition, in the 2018-2019 academic year, it was held with 50 teacher candidates studying at a public university. A semi-structured interview form was used as a data collection tool. The data obtained were then analyzed and collected under a number of categories. As a result of the research, it was determined that teacher candidates prefer to teach through presentation in concept teaching. It was determined that the teacher candidates who participated in the study used the concept map or wanted to use the concept map the most from the concept teaching tools. It has been concluded that the concepts that teacher candidates have the most difficulty in teaching concepts are more abstract concepts than concrete concepts.
