The sample of the study is made up of 60 3rd grade undergraduate students who study at Istanbul University Hasan Ali Yücel Faculty of Education. Pre-test post-test experimental modelling has been used in the study. As data collection tool, Symmetry Subjects Comprehension Test (SSCT) has been used. The Cronbach Alpha value of SSCT is found to be 0.70. SSCT has been used as a pre-test before the students read the texts and it has been used as a post-test after they have read them. SPSS program has been used for data analysis. As a result, it has been found that there is a meaningful difference between the texts that are enriched with metaconceptual activities and plain texts in terms of students’ learning symmetry subject. The findings show that teacher candidates who have read the texts that are enriched with metaconceptual activities can learn symmetry subject better than those who have read the plain text.  \nKey words: Conceptual Change, Metacognition, Metaconceptual Activities, Mathematics Education.  \n1. Introduction  \nIt is a well-known fact that learning concepts is crucial for mathematics subject. It is quite difficult for students to comprehend the mathematics subject that includes abstract concepts (Aktümen and Kaçar, 2008) . So as to have a better understanding of mathematics, one should learn the related concepts correctly. A concept is defined to be a general term for the notions and events that have the same or similar characteristics (Temizyürek, 2003) . According to Resnick (1983), students come to the classroom with the experiences that they gain from daily life, which means they do not come with and empty mind. Generally, the concepts and notions that they learn on an everyday basis do not match the scientific ones. It is called a misconception when students interpret the wrong notions, concepts and facts that they have in their minds in a way that is peculiar to them (Bahar, 2003) . Recently there has been an approach called “Conceptual Change Aproach” which aims to replace the wrong concepts with the scientific ones. In short, the process of restructuring concepts is called a conceptual change approach. The conceptual change approach has a process of resolution and reorganization. Assimilating is matching the new concepts with the concepts in the minds of students or adding new concepts to the present ones while the process of replacing the concept in the mind with new concepts is called reorganization (Cerit Berber and Sarı, 2009) .  \nSome of the researchers stated that in the process of conceptual change, metacognition in concept learning is important (Yürük, 2005) . The student’s awareness of the process of thinking and the control of the process is called metacognition. Metacognition can be listed under two headings: metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive control (Flavell, 1979) .  \nSince metacognition is a broad concept, it is more accurate to use the term of metaconceptual activities in concept learning and it can be analyzed under three main headings: metaconceptual awareness, metaconceptual monitoring and metaconceptual evaluation (Yürük, 2005) .  \nSome of the metaconceptual awareness activities are being aware of the concepts in their minds, ontological assumptions and models, the concepts that they do not know, the contextual concepts and experiences of their own. The process that aims to gather knowledge about the mental processes and the current cognitive status of the students is the metaconceptual monitoring activities. Interpretation of the present or new ideas’rationality or efficiency, and choosing one of the different situations and having better results by finding better","cbCaipq2FQQYKg0x","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipq2FQQYKg0x","pdf",1075853,"English","# Introduction\n## Conceptual change and metacognition\n## Metaconceptual activities in concept learning\n## Symmetry concept and misconceptions\n# Method\n## Research model and data collection tool","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To analyze the effects of conceptual change texts enriched with metaconceptual activities on the symmetry understanding of classroom teacher candidates.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the study designed and what was the sample size?\",\"answer\":\"A pre-test post-test experimental modeling approach was used with 60 third-grade undergraduate students at Istanbul University Hasan Ali Yücel Faculty of Education.\"},{\"question\":\"What tool was used to collect data and how reliable was it?\",\"answer\":\"The Symmetry Subjects Comprehension Test (SSCT) was used, with a Cronbach Alpha value of 0.70.\"}]","THE EFFECTS OF CONCEPTUAL CHANGE TEXTS ENRICHED WITH METACONCEPTUAL ACTIVITIES ON THE SYMMETRY OF CLASSROOM TEACHER CANDIDATES | PDF",1792065932,25]
