THE ADAPTATION OF STEM SEMANTICS SURVEY INTO TURKISH
The aim of this study is to adapt the STEM Semantics Survey for Turkish in order to determine the semantic perceptions of pre-service teachers for STEM fields. The STEM Semantics Survey was developed by Knezek and Christensen (2008). Then the analysis of validity and reliability of the scale was car...
