The research has been designed as the pre-test post-test with quasi experimental control group. The research particapiant are composed of 77 two 7 th grade students attending an elementary school on the European side of İstanbul during the 2011-2012 Academic Year. Total of twelve concept cartoons were developed within the scope of the study, in line with the skills relating to the ‘Polygons’ subject included in the 7th grade mathematics curriculum. In the first place, a pilot study was carried out during the stage of development of concept cartoons in order to identify any misconceptions students may have had regarding the polygons subject. The misconceptions identified during the pilot study were taken into consideration in development of concept cartoons. Implementation continued for four weeks. Homogenous groups, each consisting of four students sharing the same opinions, were utilized in order to enable them to discuss the concepts more comprehensively and to question their own thinking patterns by creating a social learning environment. The data of the research was collected by “Mathematical Anxiety Scale” developed by Erol (1989) and through the written opinions of the students about implementation process. While the quantitative data was analyzed by performing the t-test for dependent and independent samples, the qualitative data was analyzed descriptively. The results of the research have shown that concept cartoons have a significant effect on the students' mathematical anxiety. Besides, it was determined that students liked concept cartoons very much and their interest to the mathematics lesson was increased. In the light of the findings of this study, the researchers have developed suggestions for those who will conduct further researches on concept cartoons.Sare ŞENGÜLYusuf AYDINFırat Universityarticlemathematics teachingmathematical anxieyconcept cartoonspolygonsSocial SciencesHSocial sciences (General)H1-99DEENFRTRJournal of Academic Social Science Studies , Vol 6, Iss 18, Pp 639-659 (2019)
