Özet:

The aim of this study is to study the motivations of teaching candidates. The research was conducted according to the karma method in which quantitative and qualitative data tools were used together in accordance with the nature of the study. The research has been carried out in a distinctive order pattern from the karma designs. In this design, qualitative methods are used to explain quantum results. The Nicel method was designed in the relative research model, while the qualitative method used the olgubilim (fenomology) design. The qualitative size of the study was carried out on 329 teachers candidates according to the study at the Faculty of Education of an university in Turkey, while the qualification size was carried out on 15 teachers candidates determined by the maximum diversity sample from this sample. It was developed by Kauffman, Yılmaz-Soylu and Duke (2011) for the purpose of collecting quantitative data of the study and the personal information form developed by the researcher with the Teaching Motivation Scale adapted to Turkish by Güzel-Candan and Evin-Gencel (2015). In the qualitative part of the study, a semi-configured interview form was used to determine what the teaching motivations of the teacher candidates influence, consisting of one question. Quantitative findings of the study show that the teaching motivation of the teacher candidates is high. However, it has been determined that teaching motivations vary significantly according to the gender, the programs they study, and the class level. The quality results of the study have shown that the positive factors that influence the teaching motivation of the teacher candidates are more than the negative. In this context, it can be said that quantum and quality findings are interconnected. The study has presented some recommendations for future research to identify the teaching motivations and the factors affecting the motivations of teachers candidates and to combat the negative factors.

Özet:

The aim of this study is to examine the teacher candidates' teaching motivation. In accordance with the nature of the study, the research was carried out according to the mixed method in which quantitative and qualitative data tools were used together. The research was carried out in an explanatory sequential design from mixed methods. In this design, qualitative methods are used to explain quantitative results. While the quantitative method of the research was designed according to the survey model, the phenomenology design was used in the qualitative method. While the quantitative dimension of the study was carried out with 329 pre-service teachers studying at the Education Faculty of a university in Turkey, the qualitative dimension was carried out with 15 pre-service teachers who were determined with the maximum sampling of diversity from this sample. The Teaching Motivation Scale, developed by Kauffman, Yılmaz-Soylu, and Duke (2011), adapted to Turkish by Güzel-Candan and Evin-Gencel (2015), was used to collecting the quantitative data of the study. In addition, the personal information form developed by the researcher was used to collect the demographic characteristics of the participants in the study. In the qualitative part of the study, a semi-structured interview form, comprising a single question, was used to determine the factors affecting teacher candidates' teaching motivation. The quantitative findings of the study show that teacher candidates' teaching motivation is at a high level. İn addition, it was determined that teacher candidates' teaching motivations differed significantly according to their gender, the programs they studied, and the class level. The qualitative results of the study showed that the positive factors affecting the teaching motivation of the teacher candidates were more than the negative ones. In this context, it can be said that the quantitative and qualitative findings overlap. In this context, it can be said that the quantitative and qualitative findings overlap. In the study, some suggestions were made for future research to determine the teacher candidates' motivation for teaching, reveal the factors that affect their motivation and combat negative factors.
