Parallelogram Conceptions and Misconceptions ofStudents Who Study to Become Teachers in Pre–Primary and Primary Education

Katarina Zilkova

Abstract :

It is necessary to check the progress and assess the knowledge in the process of improving the quality of mathematical preparation of prospective students who study to become teachers. Foreign and domestic studies often point out a relatively low level of knowledge of geometry. The paper discusses some misconceptions about parallelograms and their visualizations, which were found in students who study to become primary education teachers.
