mathematicians and open ended questions towards describing drawing, third part includes the presented
options to define the image sources towards mathematicians and the fourth part includes open-ended
questions to determine famous mathematicians and reasons. The images that students draw about
mathematicians were analyzed by the content analyses method. It is believed that the results from at the end
