Matematik öğretmen adaylarının kanıtlama becerilerini geliştirmeye yönelik bir öğretme deneyi

Öz:
Bu çalışmanın amacı, matematik öğretmen adaylarının kanıtlama sürecindeki güçlüklerini belirlemek, kanıtlama deneyimi yaşadıkları ve grup tartışmalarıyla sosyal etkileşimde bulundukları öğretim etkinlikleri sonrasında kanıtlama becerilerindeki değişimi incelemektir. Çalışma, ortaöğretim matematik öğretmenliği programının dördüncü sınıfına devam etmekte olan altı öğrenciyle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Öğretmen adaylarının kanıtlama becerileri, koşullu önermeler ve koşullu önermelerin kanıtlanmasında kullanılabilecek doğrudan kanıt, olmayana ergi ve karşıt ters ile kanıt yöntemleri kapsamında incelenmiştir. Verilerin toplanması ve analizinde nitel yaklaşım benimsenmiş ve öğretme deneyi yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, öğrencilerin kanıtlama süreçlerinde farklı düzeylerde de olsa ilerleme olduğu ve kanıtla ilgili bazı güçlüklerini giderebildikleri görülmüştür. Öğretmen adaylarının, çalışma süresince gösterdikleri gelişme göz önünde bulundurularak lisans düzeyindeki matematik derslerinin işlenişine yönelik önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

A teaching experiment on development of pre-service mathematics teachers proving skills

Öz:
The purpose of this study is to determine pre-service mathematics teachers difficulties in constructing proofs and to investigate the changes in their proving skills after teaching activities that they experienced proving and interacted with group discussions. The study was conducted with six fourth grade secondary mathematics teachers. Pre-service teachers proving skills were investigated with respect to conditional statements and three proof methods; direct proof, proof by contradiction and proof by contraposition. In this qualitative study, teaching experiment method was used. As a result it can be concluded that students proving skills developed at different levels and they overcome some of their difficulties. Based on the results of the study suggestions are made for the instruction methods of undergraduate mathematics courses.
