Abstract (2. Language): 
Textbooks have often been used for accomplish learning and teaching in teacher education, despite the prevalence of digital technologies. However, little has been done so far to understand the experiences of the users in higher education with textbooks. The purpose of this study is, therefore, to understand the experiences of senior prospective elementary science teachers (N=141) with offered textbooks and with instructors’ textbook use. The data were gathered qualitatively and analyzed by using the technique of content analysis to reveal the emerging themes. Findings suggest that the participants have positive and negative experiences with textbooks in regard to content, language/exposition, pedagogy, and physical/visual aspects. They also state their positive and negative experiences with instructors’ practice of selection, use, and instruction. Findings present important implications regarding the design, selection, and use of textbooks.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Öğretim teknolojilerinin yaygınlaşmasına rağmen, ders kitapları öğretmen yetiştirme sürecinde öğretme ve öğrenmenin gerçekleştirilmesi amacıyla sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Ancak üniversite öğrencilerinin kitaplarla olan deneyimlerini anlamaya yönelik pek az çalışma yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Fen Bilgisi Öğretmenliği Programı son sınıfındaki öğretmen adaylarının (N=141) öğretmen yetiştirme sürecinde önerilen ders kitaplarıyla ve öğretim elemanlarının bu kitapları kullanımıyla ilgili deneyimlerini saptamaktır. Nitel yolla toplanan veriler içerik analizi tekniğiyle çözümlenerek temalar elde edilmiştir. Araştırmanın bulguları, öğretmen adaylarının ders kitaplarına yönelik içerik, dil/anlatım, pedagojik ve fiziksel/görsel boyutlarındaki; ders kitaplarını öğretim elemanlarının kullanımıyla ilgili olarak kitap seçimi, kitap kullanımı ve öğretim boyutlarındaki olumlu ve olumsuz deneyimlerini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Bulgular ders kitaplarının tasarımı, seçimi ve kullanımına yönelik önemli ipuçları sunmaktadır.
