Pre-service primary school teachers’ metacognitive awareness and beliefs about mathematical problem solving

Metacognitive awareness is a variable that is thought to affect beliefs in  problem solving. When the literature is examined, it is seen that the studies mostly focus on metacognitive awareness and problem solving skills. Therefore, the aim is to determine pre-service primary school teachers’ metaco...

As a result, the pre-service primary school teachers’ metacognitive awareness was found to be high and their beliefs about mathematical problem solving were found to be medium.

Pre-service primary school teachers’ metacognitive awareness and beliefs about mathematical problem solving
description Metacognitive awareness is a variable that is thought to affect beliefs in  problem solving.

Therefore, the aim is to determine pre-service primary school teachers’ metacognitive awareness and beliefs in mathematical problem solving. In this study, it is thought that it will contribute to the researches that will be carried out regarding the investigation of the relationship between metacognitive awareness and beliefs about problem solving and its implementation with pre-service primary school teachers.
