- Abstract
Aim: This study aims to reveal the expectation levels of reality shock of teacher candidates who take pedagogical formation for the teaching profession and to examine these levels in terms of variables of age, gender and department. Methods: Quantitative research model was used in the study. The population consists of the students who study in Gazi University, Faculty of Sports Sciences, Ankara, in the second semester of 2016-2017 academic year. The sample group consists of 4th grade students who take pedagogical formation and study in the departments of recreation, coaching education and sports management in Gazi University. As a data collection tool, "Personal Information Form" created by the researchers in order to collect information about the participants and "Reality Shock Expectation Scale (RSES)" adapted by Özdemir and Büyükgöze in 2016 was used in the research. In data analysis, variables displaying normal distribution were analyzed by parametric test methods. In this context, descriptive statistics such as arithmetic mean, standard deviation and percentage value, as well as t test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests were used. Results: It was found that there was a positively meaningful relationship between the total scores of the teacher candidates taking pedagogical formation received from RSES and the age variable. It was determined that the expectation level of reality shock of teacher candidates taking pedagogical formation didn't show statistically meaningful difference according to gender. According to the analyses, a meaningful difference was determined according to the departments of participants. Accordingly, it was seen that the score mean of the reality shock expectations of teacher candidates from the coaching education department were higher than the score means of reality shock expectations of teacher candidates from the sport management department and the recreation department. Conclusions: It was determined that teacher candidates, who study in 4th grade in the departments of recreation, coaching education and sports management and take pedagogical formation, have the low expectation levels of reality shock.
