This exploratory study examines the background characteristics, socio-cultural values and pedagogical beliefs that entering student teachers bring with them into the faculties of education and explores their possible implications for teacher education in the Turkish context. The study comprised 18,226 first-year student teachers from 51 faculties of education who participated in the study by responding to a three-section questionnaire developed by the research team. Their responses indicate that students entering education faculties typically come from families of lower-middle socio-economic status living in urban areas, tend to possess more traditional than secular-rational values and have not yet formed clear pedagogical beliefs.

Analysis of issues related to education of pre-service physics teachers in Turkey
Tam, Mehtap; Eryılmaz, Ali; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2006)
The purpose of this survey is to analyse the issues related to education of pre-service physics teachers in Turkey. After reviewing the related literature, the problems were grouped in three categories; (1) Problems occurred before entering Physics Teacher Education Program, (2) Problems occurred during Physics Teacher Education Program, and (3) Problems occurred after graduation from Physics Teacher Education Program. Three questionnaires; Pre-service Physics Teacher Questionnaire-1 (PPTQ-1), Pre-service P...
Physics teachers' beliefs related to Turkish high school physics curriculum: a multiple case study
Kapucu, Serkan; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Yıldırım, Ufuk; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2012)
The purpose of this study was to investigate four in-service physics teachers’ beliefs related to Turkish High School Physics Curriculum (THSPC) and to what extent these beliefs are reflected in their instructional practices. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations and an open-ended questionnaire. Teachers’ responses to interview questions showed that they believed that teaching physics according to the THSPC helped students use their skills, become interested in physics lessons, rela...
