Then the data were analyzed statistically and it was observed that the question strategy The subjectivity influenced the student / applied person in terms of their thinking style, and this reflected positively on the students ’attitude towards mathematics compared to the control group, and among the research proposals is the need to adopt a self-questioning strategy within the preparation programs for mathematics teachers in the Faculties of Education and in the Ministry of Education.
