Abstract:
This study aims to determine the knowledge level of class teacher candidates on
geometrical objects, to analyze their problem solving skills and attitudes in regard to
geometrical objects, and, as well ,to identify the relationship between these variables.
This study is included inanon-empirical studies group. The participants of the study
consist of 250 teacher candidates. The Knowledge Level Test in Regard to Geometrical
Objects, Geometrical Object Problem Solving Test, and Attitude Scale towards
Geometrical Objects, which were developed by the researchers, have been used in the
study as data collection tools. In the analyses of the data, Descriptive Statistics and
Correlation Analysis have been used. The study concludes that that the class teacher
candidates have a medium-level attitude. Furthermore, it is found that they have lowlevel
geometrical object knowledge and problem solving skills. Besides, the fact that
the level of knowledge is influential in problem solving and that the attitude is
influential in increasing the level of knowledge are also among the findings of the
study. Moreover, this study explores significant correlational relationships between
the knowledge level on geometrical objects and the attitudes and between the
knowledge level for geometrical objects and the problem solving level.
