attitudes of the prospective mathematics teachers taking education at the
Mathematics Education Department of a State University toward the mathematics
courses and the mathematics education courses. In addition to this, answers were
sought to the questions of  <span style="color:#FF0000;">“ </span>Does the prospective teachers’ attitudes toward the

study was consist of 261 prospective mathematics teachers taking undergaduate
education at the Education Faculty
during the 2018-2019 academic year. The study was both a descriptive one
carried out in the general survey model and a correlational one examining the
relationship between the prospective teachers attitudes toward the
mathematics courses and the mathematics education courses. In order to find the

it was obtained that the means of the total scores of the prospective teachers
related to the mathematics
courses and the mathematics education courses were very close to each other. It
was found that there was a positive significant relationship between the
prospective teachers’ attitudes toward the mathematics education courses and
the mathematics courses. </span> </i> </p> <p> <i> </i> </p> <i> </i>}, number={18}, publisher={İdeal Kent Yayınları}
