Özet

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.
