This study aimed to analyse the relationship between teaching/learning conceptions and reflective thinking in physical education teacher candidates. To this end, the study recruited, on a voluntary basis, 640 students who were in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grade in the Department of Physical Education and Sports Teaching in the School of Physical Education and Sports at Erciyes, Ahi Evran, Selcuk and Haci Bektas Veli Universities during the 2017-2018 academic year. As data collection tools, the study used the Teaching/Learning Conception Questionnaire, Reflective Thinking Tendency Scale and Socio-demographic Information Form. The data obtained through the scales was statistically analyzed using SPSS 20.0 software. The candidates’ personal information and inventory total points as well as factor points were presented by identifying frequency (f) and percentage (%) values. To indicate the relationship between the scores obtained on the scales, the Pearson Moment Product Correlation analysis (r) was conducted while multiple regression analysis was performed to determine whether the scores are predictive of each other. Consequently, it was found that the traditional conception of teaching and learning has no statistically significant relationship with any subscale of the reflective thinking tendency scale. On the other hand, the study revealed that the constructivist conception of teaching and learning is statistically correlated with reflective thinking in general and with the subscales open-mindedness and interrogative and effective teaching.

The problem of training specialists in physical culture and sports for professional activity using health-saving technologies is considered. Under human competence, teachers understand the specially structured knowledge, skills, abilities and attitudes that they acquire in the learning process. They allow a person to identify and solve, regardless of the context, problems specific to a particular field of activity. The essence of the concept of «health competence» of a physical education teacher is insufficiently researched, and therefore requires further scientific research. It is necessary to eliminate the contradiction between the modern requirement of society for the health-preserving competence of a physical education teacher and the insufficient theoretical-methodological and methodological-technological elaboration of the problem of its formation. Further our research provides to define essence, structure and the maintenance of health-preserving competence of the future teacher of physical culture, to substantiate organizational and pedagogical conditions and to develop methodical and technological aspect of its formation in the course of biological preparation. A physical education specialist must have methods for determining and evaluating the quantitative indicators of an individual's health and be able to use the most informative of them in practice. To do this, in our opinion, it is not necessary to include new disciplines or special courses in the curriculum. Appropriate adjustments should be made to the curricula of biological disciplines for students majoring in physical culture and sports at the university. Particular attention in this context is paid to physiology, because the study of the functions of body systems can be supplemented by methods of studying their functional state with the help of various biological samples.

The study group consisted of 433 teacher candidates studying in physical education and sport teaching departments. The study revealed that teacher candidates’ teaching efficacy levels and their adoption of constructivist conceptions were high and that teacher efficacy levels were important predictors of teaching-learning conceptions.

The study focused basically on measuring the relationship between the material cost of the students benefits program and the benefits which are earned by it, which was distributed on college students in the initial stages (matinee) and to show the extent of the benefits accruing from the grant program compared to the material burdens which matched and the extent of success or failure of the experience and its effect from o scientific and side on the Iraqi student through these tough economic circumstances experienced by the country in general, and also trying to find ways of proposed increase or expansion of distribution in the future in the event of proven economic feasibility from the program. An data has been taking from the data fro the Department of Financial Affairs and the Department of Studies and Planning at the University of Diyala with taking an data representing an actual and minimized pattern and questionnaires to a sample of students from the Department of Life Sciences in the Faculty of Education of the University of Diyala on the level of success and failure of students in the first year of the grant and the year before for the purpose of distribution comparison. The importance of the study to measure the extent of interest earned in comparision whit the material which is expenseon the program of grant (grant of students) to assist the competent authorities to continue or not in the program of student grants for the coming years.
