Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, farklı akademik başarıya sahip matematik öğretmeni adaylarının gerçekleştirdikleri klinik mülakatları karşılaştırmaktır. İç içe geçmiş çoklu durum çalışması desenine dayandırılan çalışmanın katılımcılarını tabakalı amaçlı örneklemeye dayalı olarak seçilen on lise matematik öğretmeni adayı oluşturmuştur. Öğretmen adaylarının seçiminde altı döneme ait akademik not ortalamalarından yararlanılmıştır. On öğretmen adayından beşi sınıftaki en yüksek akademik ortalamaya sahip iken diğer beşi en düşük akademik ortalamaya sahiptir. Çalışmanın verileri öğretmen adaylarının gerçekleştirdiği klinik mülakat uygulamalarının video kayıtlarından derlenmiştir. Her bir klinik mülakat transkript edilmiş ve transkript metinleri öğretmen adaylarının sordukları sorular doğrultusunda analiz edilmiştir. Düşük akademik başarı ortalamasına sahip matematik öğretmeni adayları klinik mülakatları boyunca genellikle yönlendirici sorulardan yararlanırken, yüksek akademik başarı düzeyindeki öğretmen adayları düşüncelere odaklı sorular sormuşlardır. Sonuçlara dayalı olarak, öğretmen adaylarının klinik mülakat öncesinde kavramsal analiz yapmalarının ve bu kavramsal analizlerine dayalı klinik mülakatlar gerçekleştirmelerinin matematik öğretimi için önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir.

Comparing the Clinical Interviews Conducted by the Prospective Mathematics Teachers Having Different Academic Achievement

Abstract

he purpose of this study is to compare the
clinical interviews conducted by the prospective mathematics teachers with
different academic achievements. The participants of this embedded multiple
case study were ten prospective mathematics teachers selected by stratified
purposeful sample. The participants' selection was based on their six semester
grade averages. Five had the highest academic averages while the others had the
lowest academic averages. The data were compiled from the video recordings of
the clinical interview applications performed by the student teachers. Each
clinical interview was transcribed and the transcripts were analyzed in the
context of questions asked by the prospective teachers. During clinical
interviews, while the prospective mathematics teachers with low academic
averages used funneling questions, the participants with high academic averages
asked the questions focusing on students thinking. Based on the results, it is
thought that it is of significant for the prospective teachers to be asked to
make conceptual analysis related to the concepts prior to the clinical
interview and conduct clinical interviews based on their conceptual analysis.
