The purpose of this study is to analyse the content knowledge on graphs of pre-service elementary mathematics teachers from an anthropological perspective. 112 pre-service elementary mathematics teachers participated in the study. Concentric mixed pattern research method has been used in the study. The data was collected through Graphic Content Knowledge Scale and interview method in order to examine the content knowledge of primary school math teacher candidates related to graphics anthropologically. This scale which was developed within the frame of determined institutional recognitions includes graphic concept and its usage conditions, graphic types and different display forms, making proper transformations between graphics related to a given context, graphic reading, graphic interpreting and graphic drawing skills. In addition, for the purpose of having a more detailed review of the individual recognitions of the 10 participants, a semi-structured interview scale has been developed and used during the interviews. Data acquired have been analysed by using ecologic and praxiologic approach suggested within the framework of Anthropological Theory of the Didactic. The knowledge scale and interview data have been subjected to content analysis and descriptive analysis to interpret the individual recognitions of the pre-service teachers within the scope of institutional recognitions. As a result, it has been observed that the individual recognitions of pre-service teachers related to column, circle and line graphs conform to the institutional recognitions, however in institutional recognitions the techniques specified for column graphs are being used for histogram, hence they have difficulties in comprehending the differences between histogram and column graph. It has also been concluded that they were not aware of a theory based on graph knowledge.

Assessment of preservice mathematics teachers’ knowledge for teaching statistics
Mercimek, Oktay; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2013)
The purpose of this study is to assess preservice teachers’ mathematical knowledge for teaching statistics (MKT-S). For this purpose, MKT-S instrument consisting of two dimensions, ‘content knowledge’ (CK) and ‘pedagogical content knowledge’ (PCK) was developed, and applied to 659 preservice middle school mathematics teachers (PTs). Confirmatory factor analysis showed that CK and PCK are two different dimensions of mathematical knowledge of teaching statistics. It was found that CK factor scores were highly...
Investigation of Using Online Video Case Discussions in Teacher Education: Sources of Evidence of Mathematics Learning
Osmanoglu, Aslihan; Koç, Yusuf; Işıksal Bostan, Mine (2013-03-01)
The purpose of this study was to explore pre-service and in-service mathematics teachers' analyses of student learning in a video case of mathematics instruction via an online learning forum. The study was conducted in the context of three different mathematics methods courses in a 4-year college in the Midwestern United States. Twenty-six students (19 undergraduate and 7 master's students) participated in the study. As a course assignment, the participants were asked to watch and discuss a video case of ma...
Making sense of statistical and probabilistic information in the media texts Pre service teachers critical thinking processes
ÖZEN, MEHTAP; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç (2015-02-08)
This study aimed to investigate the critical thinking processes that pre-service middle school mathematics teachers utilize when they intensely engaged with the media text based on statistical and probabilistic information. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with four pre-service middle school mathematics teachers in a public university. The findings of the study pointed out that pre-service middle school mathematics teachers progressed through different critical thinking processes, including c...
Investigation of pre-service mathematics teachers' critical thinking processes through stattistical and probabilistic knowledge in the context of popular media texts
Özen, Mehtap; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2013)
The aim of the study is to investigate pre-service middle school mathematics teachers’ critical thinking processes through statistical and probabilistic knowledge in the context of popular media texts. The study was conducted with a qualitative case study method. Participants of the study consisted of four senior pre-service middle school mathematics teachers enrolled in a public university. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the participants. Analysis of the data was conducted on the basi...
