dc.description.abstract | The aim of this study is determining the cognitive structures of geography pre-service teachers on some concepts in relation to the natural disasters via Word Association Test. The universe of the study is 34 fifth grade geography teaching department students who are studying at Ahmet Kelesoglu Education Faculty, Necmettin Erbakan University in 2015-2016 academic year. In this study, landslide, soil erosion, drought, and flood were selected as key concepts. In the analysis of data, frequency count which is one of the descriptive analysis technique was used. Each concept was written one under the other for ten times and pre-service teachers were asked to write down their associations of those given words within 30 seconds. A table was generated including key concepts and student words after the analysis of collected data. Words associated with the concepts were analyzed in detail and a concept web was created taking the repeated words into consideration. Furthermore, pre-service teacher's sentences including selected words were analyzed and put into categorisation. As a result, it was seen that prospective teachers have conceptual knowledge on landslide, erosion, drought, and flood, however, they fall short of this knowledge. After the analysis of pre-service teacher's sentence samples, it was seen that sentences including scientific information related to the key concepts were more, but sentences carrying misconceptions and unscientific information were seen, either. | en_US |
