It might be of vital importance that teachers, who are the backbones of education system, should obtain their skills related to educating students who are in harmony with modern life in their process as teacher candidates. Physical education teachers should obtain features of quality teaching and using alternative methods of measurement during their bachelor&rsquo;s degree education. Thus, the aim of this study is to analyze efficiency of teacher candidates in movement analysis, self-evaluation and peer evaluation for four basic volleyball skills (forearm pass, setting, underhand serve and overhand serve). In the process of obtaining data, four observation forms were used. In the evaluation of forearm passing and overhand serve, observation forms developed by Ghorbanzadeh Koshki (2013) were used as evaluation tools. For overhand pass and underhand serve, observation forms developed by the researcher and experts were used. Also, information related to genders and ages of the teacher candidates was recorded. In the analysis of the data, t test, Pearson correlation and partial correlation tests were used. In the reliability analyses, interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cronbach Alpha analyses were used. As a result, the teacher candidates&rsquo; scores for self-evaluation of their skills and their peers&rsquo; scores were found to be correlated. No significant difference was found between the two evaluations. The findings were discussed in the frame of the importance for physical education teacher candidates to learn to analyze moves and to use alternative measurement techniques.

This study aims to analyze the somatotype structures in students studying at different departments of physical education. A total of 300 male students (elite-sub-elite athletes) who study physical education and sports (n=100), coaching education (n=100) and sports management (n=100) at School of Physical Education and Sports at University of Kirsehir Ahi Evran voluntarily participated in this study. Somatotype structures were determined using Heath-Carter method and SOMATOTURK calculation program. SPSS 22.0 package program for Windows was used for correlation analysis, and the level of significance was taken as 0.05. The results indicate that while students (elite-sub-elite athletes) participating in the study had a mesomorph structure, which is one of the most important body structure parameters for performance and characterized by a muscularity component, during early periods of their education (freshman and sophomore years), their bodies transformed into an endomorph structure, which is characterized by fat components, during later periods of their education (junior and senior years).

Background: It is known that people's relations with nature can be greatly influential in all periods of their lives and especially in their future, which has increased their interest in concepts such as "environment", "nature", "natural life", "ecology", "ecosystem" as a result of the increase in natural awareness in humans. Aim: Based on these ideas, our research aims to measure the attitudes of cycling athletes in Elazig province towards ecorecreation.. Methods: A total of 178 athletes from 242 cycling athletes, including cycling sports clubs, associations, and individual athletes in Elazig province, participated voluntarily. It consists of 31 substances and 6 sub-dimensions developed by Ayyildiz and the 'Personal Information Form' prepared by the researchers as a data collection tool. Attitude Scale Towards Ecorecreation(ASTE), which was created in a 5-point Likert type format, was used. Spss 22.00 package program was used for the analysis of the data and the level of significance was determined as p<0.05. In the study, t-test analysis was applied to determine the significance of the differences between two groups and ANOVA was applied to determine the significance between more than two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the direction and severity of the relationship between variables. Results: As a result of the research, there was a semantic difference in the individual and environmental sensitivities of licensed cycling athletes. A significant difference was observed in the Attitudes and Behavior towards Ecorecreation sub-dimensions of the athletes who are interested in another nature sport. Conclusion: The increase in positive behaviors towards nature has clearly become clear that it is directly related to being in nature. Accordingly, researchers believe and draw attention to the fact that in order to increase the positive effect on nature, it is necessary to be intertwined with nature and to adopt it.

In this study, the purpose is examining the reasons of choosing the profession by coaching education and sports management department students who are receiving pedagogical formation education, and revealing the reflection of the applications in physical education teacher departments. The study group consists of 17 students studying at Physical Education and Sports Department, 8 coaching education students, 9 sports management students, who receive pedagogical formation education at 3 different universities. The Purposeful Sampling Method has been used in the study. Since the aim in the study is revealing the perceptions and events in a realistic and holistic manner, the Interview Technique, which is one of the Qualitative Research Methods, and Semi-Structured Interview Forms have been used in the study.When the analysis results of the study are examined, it has been determined that the findings consist of two main themes. The “Pedagogical Formation Education”, which is the first main theme, consists of six sub-themes; and the “Physical Education Teaching Department”, which is the second main theme, consists of four sub-themes. The participants stated that they considered the Pedagogical Formation Education as a way of employment in state institutions; and added that the contents, duration, internship practices of Pedagogical Formation Education, and specific knowledge on the field of Physical Education is not provided adequately for them during their education. They added that the Physical Education Teaching was their dream jobs, and they had the required knowledge and equipment for this job; and the Pedagogical Formation Certificate was a necessity because it was a missing point at their department. The participants stated that Formation Education Certificate Programs being provided to the students coming from other departments except for teaching departments was not fair in fact, and this would create a disadvantage for the students who studied in Physical Education Departments. As a conclusion, it may be claimed that the temporary and daily solutions in teacher training departments and therefore the application and management style of Pedagogical Formation Education influence the viewpoints of the coaching education and sports management department students, who are receiving Pedagogical Formation for this purpose, about the teacher training programs and physical education teaching department in a negative manner. ÖzetBu araştırmada pedagojik formasyon eğitimi almakta olan antrenörlük eğitimi ve spor yöneticiliği bölümü öğrencilerinin bu eğitimi alma nedenleri ile söz konusu uygulamanın beden eğitimi öğretmenliğine yansımalarının incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu, amaçlı örneklem yöntemi ile üç farklı üniversitede yürütülen pedagojik formasyon eğitimi alan, 8 antrenörlük eğitimi, 9 spor yöneticiliği bölümünde okuyan toplam 17 beden eğitimi spor yüksekokulu öğrencisi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada, algıların ve olayların gerçekçi ve bütüncül bir biçimde ortaya konulması hedeflendiği için, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden, görüşme (röportaj) tekniği ve verilerin toplanmasında yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırma verilerine ilişkin analiz sonuçları incelendiğinde, bulguların iki ana temadan oluştuğu görülmüştür. Birinci ana tema olan “Pedagojik Formasyon Eğitimi”nin altı alt temadan, ikinci ana tema olan “Beden Eğitimi Öğretmenliği”nin ise dört alt temadan oluştuğu belirlenmiştir. Araştırma bulgularında katılımcıların pedagojik formasyon eğitimini; öncelikle devlette istihdam olanağı olarak gördüklerini, pedagojik formasyon eğitimin içeriği, süresi, staj uygulamaları ve beden eğitimi alanına özgü bilgilerin yetersiz biçimde verildiğini ifade etmişlerdir. Beden eğitimi öğretmeni olmanın hayallerindeki meslek olduğunu, bunun için yeterli bilgi ve donanıma sahip olduklarını, pedagojik formasyonun ise eksik kaldığı için alınması gereken bir belge olduğunu belirtmişlerdir. Katılımcılar formasyon eğitimi sertifika programlarının öğretmenlik bölümü dışındaki öğrencilere verilmesinin aslında adil olmadığını, bu durumun beden eğitimi öğretmenliği bölümünde okuyanlar için bir dezavantaj yaratacağını ifade etmişlerdir. Sonuç olarak, öğretmen yetiştirmede meydana gelen geçici ve günlük çözümlerin, dolayısıyla pedagojik formasyon eğitiminin, uygulama ve yönetim biçiminin beden eğitimi öğretmeni olmak isteyen ve bu amaçla pedagojik formasyon eğitimi alan antrenörlük eğitimi ve spor yöneticiliği bölümleri öğrencilerinin öğretmen yetiştirme ve beden eğitimi öğretmenliğine ilişkin bakış açılarını olumsuz olarak etkilediği söylenebilir.
