Development of the Inventory of Elementary Mathematics Pre-service Teachers’ Study Strategies During Distance Education

Students all over the world who have gone through processes such as pandemics or earthquakes have switched from face-to-face education environments to distance education environments. This has created radical changes for education systems. These changes primarily affect pre-service elementary mathematics teachers enrolled in courses with applications. In these contexts, the aim of this study is to develop an inventory named "Study Strategies of Pre-Service Elementary Mathematics Teachers' During Distance Education" to examine the study strategies of pre-service elementary mathematics teachers. We performed reliability analyses, exploration factor analyses, and confirmatory factor analyses using IBM SPSS 26 and IBM AMOS 24 software. As a result of the analysis, course processes-assignments and projects and preparation for exams subscales were formed, and inventory is finalized.
