Bu çalışma, ilköğretimde görev yapan matematik ve sınıf öğretmenlerinin yeni matematik programıhakkındaki görüşlerini incelemek ve programın uygulanmasında karşılaşılan zorlukları araştırmak için Adıyaman’dayapılmıştır. Çalışmaya 35’i matematik öğretmeni olmak üzere toplam 265 öğretmen katılmıştır. Veriler, araştırmacılartarafından geliştirilen 43 maddeden oluşan 5’li Likert-tipi ölçme aracından, öğretmenlerin program hakkındaki görüşleriniyazdığı bir adet açık uçlu sorudan ve öğretmenlerin doldurduğu program değerlendirme formlarından elde edilmiştir.Toplanan nicel verilerin analizinde yüzde, aritmetik ortalama, t testi, ANOVA testi, nitel verilerde betimsel analiz yöntemikullanılmıştır. Analizler sonucunda, öğretmenlerin program hakkındaki görüşlerinin genel olarak olumlu olduğu, bazıdeğişkenlere göre görüşlerde farklılık olduğu ve programın öğretmenlere yeterince tanıtılmadığı, uygulamada araç-gereçeksikliği, etkinlik hazırlama, sınıfların kalabalık olması, gibi zorluklarla karşılaştıkları görülmüştür

Anahtar Kelimeler
