| Özet |
| Reading is an acquisition necessary for realising life-long learning. In addition, the more an individual is able to use reading skills and criticise what s/he reads, the more s/he participates in a democratic social system. To what extent the teacher candidates who are qualified as models bear these important merits and to what extent they use reading skills are two important questions that need to be answered. Aiming at answering these questions, this research has been conducted in the Education Faculty of Ahi Evran University. In the research, a questionnaire has been administered to 577 students from the departments of Turkish Language and Social Studies Teaching. According to the findings, although reading frequencies of Turkish Language teacher candidates are higher than those of Social Studies teacher candidates, the reading frequency of teacher candidates in general was found to be low. It has been observed that the daily time allocated for mass media negatively affects the time allocated for reading. It has also been observed that the habit of using libraries is poor and libraries are mostly used for studying and reading newspapers & magazines In addition, it is among the findings that female students are superior to male students in terms of their reading frequencies and levels of using reading strategies. Finally, a positive correlation has been found between the reading frequency and the level of using reading strategies. |
