Investigation of Activity Designs Prepared by Pre- Service Mathematics Teachers for Aspects of Entrepreneurship Education

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine examples of activities prepared by pre-service mathematics teachers for entrepreneurship education based on their knowledge of the aspects of entrepreneurship education and the achievements in this area in the secondary school mathematics curriculum. In the national and international literature, there are very few studies on entrepreneurship skills in mathematics education and on developing these skills. In addition, there are no secondary school mathematics curriculum acquisitions or application examples prepared in accordance with such acquisitions. The participants of this study included 20 pre-service teachers enrolled in the third-year undergraduate course “Connection in Mathematics Teaching” who volunteered to participate. Over the course of two weeks, four lessons of approximately 40 minutes, or 160 minutes in total, were taught to pre-service teachers addressing the following questions: “What are entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial skills? How are they related to mathematics? What can be done about the achievements in mathematics and the mathematics curriculum?” The subjects were explained and examples of applications from the researcher’s own work were given. After these explanations, the pre-service teachers were given an assignment. The data of the research consist of the completed assignments and audio recordings of individual interviews after homework analysis. The data were analyzed by content analysis.
