Abstract
School materials help both students and teachers to reach planned objectives. Textbooks are the pioneering ones that students use the most. The way that the students use the course books is as worth investigating as designing which should include learning strategies. Behaviors and thoughts that the learner performs during the learning process, which are expected to affect his/her coding process could be described as learning strategies. The kinds of them, rehearsal, organizing, comprehensive and affective strategies are preferred by the students in various circumstances. The purpose of this study is to describe how prospective classroom teachers use rehearsal strategies as they study social studies education textbook. In line with the purposes of the study, the textbooks belonging to 197 prospective teachers were analyzed. It was concluded that prospective classroom teachers mostly used the strategy of underlining with a pencil. The least-used rehearsal strategy was the use of question marks alongside text.
