Abstract

As a result of observations and the informal interviews made with the students in the undergraduate program of Arts and Crafts Education, it was observed that the students had anxiety and concerns about their profession, and they tended to practice different professions after graduation. After informal interviews, observations, and the examination of teacher appointment statistics, it was felt that it was necessary to determine, explain and examine the view-points of teacher candidates on the Art Teaching profession based on scientific foundations. In this study, it is aimed to investigate and examine the factors that affect the thoughts and perspectives of the students in the undergraduate program of Arts and Crafts Education towards performing their profession. This study is rather important in terms of fulfilling the need and lack of studies in the literature, identifying the situation, and the need for a detailed analysis. This research was designed as an internal case study, one of the qualitative research methods. As a result of the analysis conducted using Nvivo 12, a qualitative data analysis program, results were presented and commented on with respect to the themes and codes obtained. When the obtained data was examined, it was observed that environmental factors, opinions on the profession as well as concerns regarding appointments and exams were influential in their confusion about practicing their profession after graduation.
