The purpose of this research is to evaluate the teaching application course of the special education teaching degree in accordance with the opinions of teachers candidates and teachers of practice. The research is designed in the state-of-the-art model. The research work group consists of eight practical teachers who guide these students with twelve teachers candidates who participate in the special teaching teaching practice course. In the study, the opinions of the teachers candidates and the teachers of practice were gathered through a semi-structured interview form. Thematic analysis is used in the analysis of data. The results of the analyses were gathered in the opinions of the teachers and teachers candidates in seven topics. The continued learning desire and questions asked by the students by the teachers of application, the participation of the faculty in the teaching and the turn of the students, the effective cooperation and communication provided in the practice, are defined as the positive aspects of the practice. However, there are problems such as the excess of the number of students that fall into a practice teacher, the lack of teaching skills of the students, the failure of the students to get ready for teaching courses, the simplicity of the curriculum they prepare, the lack of students in planning and teaching programs, the failure to communicate with the students in the school. Candidate teachers have emphasized the opportunity to recognize different schools and disability groups, the provision of professional development, the provision of experience in teaching different subjects and skills as positive aspects of the practice. The extent of the application file, the high expectations and negative attitudes of the teachers of the practice, the failure of the teachers of the practice and the failure of the teacher to participate in all the teachings, are defined as the problems encountered in the practice. Based on the research findings, it is recommended to increase the duration of teaching application, teaching planning, teaching design, material design, the development of the professional knowledge of the teaching candidates in the subjects of class management, the development of cooperation and communication for the effective implementation of teaching application.
