- Abstract
In this study the secondary school students having difficulties in understanding and integrating into the daily life of integers recommended for use in teaching of modeling with counters was conducted to determine the views of teachers on the impact of learning. For this purpose 16 elementary school math teachers were interviewed using semistructured interview method. The teachers' views were analyzed by using the variables; use, convenience, effectiveness, and efficiency of modeling with counters. According the results of this analysis, the teachers have different views about the effect of modeling with counters on learning integers and they don't prefer using modeling with counters in some operations. The teachers use counters in addition and subtraction of integers in modeling but they do not prefer using multiplication and division of integers in modeling too much because they find it difficult. Although the teachers state that modeling with counters can be used as a complementary and a concretization material, they do not think modeling with counters is not enough to teach learning integers. In addition, the teachers only follow the textbook examples and their models of the programs and they do not develop alternative examples and models.
