The purpose of this study is to find out how effective introduction and
interaction sharings with individuals with Special Educational Needs (SEN) effect the
university students who are taught to be teachers at the universities; and to shed
advanced researches which will be planned in future in this field. In this study ‘single
group pre-test post-test experimental design without control group’ among the other
experimental models has been used. The reason of choosing this model is to present
effectiveness of the practised programme and interaction model with changing attitudes.
‘Attitude Scale for the Individuals Effected from Disabilities’ developed by Yuker,
Block and Young (1970) was carried out for defining the attitudes of studens towards
the individuals affected from handicap in this study. According to the results of the
study, pre-test point of the candidate students is 2.85 and final test point of them is 3.61
and in comparing these two different points, it is found that there is a statistically
meaningfull difference for pre-test. In other words, the attitudes of the students towards
students with SEN have been changed in positive way. Also, it was found that the
university students’ attitudes have been increased in positive way
