Objectives of the Course |
The purpose of geometry is to see the facts that exist in nature, to discover the relations between them and to bring these relations to real and new relations in the abstract field.
The aim of this course is to enable pre-service teachers to understand the basic concepts and structures of geometry and measurement, and to relate the relationships between these structures with the help of geometry and measurement materials; To develop skills that will relate them to daily life by identifying misconceptions about geometry and measurement. |

Learning Outcomes |
1 | Van Hiele knows the levels of thinking and distinguishes different thinking levels and determines the relationships between them. 2- Comprehend the basic concepts of geometry and geometric structures and distinguish them from each other. 3- Identifies the basic elements of geometric objects and their networks. 4- Solves problems related to parity and similarity. 5- Configures the appearance and projection of a shape formed by geometric transformation. 6- Understands the relationships between them by structuring different patterns and ornaments. 7- Creates different fractal designs. 8- Apply different proof applications of the Pythagorean theorem on geometric materials. 9- Makes time, length, area, volume and angle measurement applications by using various geometry materials and identifies and interprets student misconceptions that may arise as a result of these applications. 10- Constructs daily life applications of various materials in basic geometry and measurement subjects. |
