An Investigation on Preservice Teachers' Human Values (The Case Of Bayburt)

This study aimed to comparatively examine the values of students in both Educational Faculties and final year students currently trying to become teachers by taking pedagogical formation education. Relational search model was used in the research. The sample of the study consists of 369 volunteer university students. The data of the study were gathered using a scale including 39 items and the 9 subscales. The study findings suggest that there are significant differences in at least one subscale among all participants, and, prospective teachers’ score averages are found to be quite lower than the 7 subscales’ score averages except the social and intellectual values subscales. Suggestions for the teaching of values of teacher candidates have been made.
