According to the data obtained, all the teacher candidates participating in the study used making a drawing
strategy while solving a geometry problem. The question “In some geometry questions, do you try to improve
the question visually or in order to see the question visually do you change the question into a visual expression
by using the data in cases where the data is verbal?” was asked in the interview to identify whether the teacher
candidates use making a drawing strategy or not and some of the answer they give are like that;
S.1- Yes. Because when I see the question visually, I solve it easier and I find the solution more quickly.
S.2- Yes. I solve the question by changing it into a visual. Because geometry questions are more about seeing
than memorizing.
S.3- Yes. I think about where to draw the lines. I change a verbal question into visual and then I solve it, I have
difficulty in reaching the solution if I cannot see.
S.4- Yes. I like drawing and solving the questions is more attractive to me with the shapes I draw, it makes me
relax.
Besides, some of the problem solutions that are in the form of determining the geometry problem solving
strategies and teacher candidates use making a drawing strategy, are like that;
