This study was conducted within the scope of
the General Biology Laboratory II course, which was taught in the Science
Teaching Department in the Spring semester of the 2016-2017 academic year. The
study group consisted of 40 teacher candidates in their second year in the
Science Teaching Department at a state university in Konya. The purpose of the
study, in which case study design was used, was to determine the views of
teacher candidates concerning the V diagrams used in the General Biology
Laboratory II course. To this end, experiments were conducted for a period of
10 weeks and reports for the experiments were formed by the teacher candidates
in the form of V diagrams. The views of the teacher candidates regarding V
diagrams were collected through open-ended questions and analyzed via content
analysis.
