Summary/Abstract: In this study, metaphorical perceptions of mathematics teacher candidates towards 21st-century skills were examined. The study group consists of 49 mathematics teacher candidates studying in the education faculty primary school mathematics teaching program of a state university in the Aegean Region. In the study designed according to phenomenology pattern, one of the qualitative research methods, content analysis was used in the analysis of the data. The data was collected using a data collection tool consisting of openended questions developed by the researcher in order to determine metaphorical perceptions of three basic skill areas within the scope of 21stcentury skills of teacher candidates categorized as “learning and innovation skills”, “information, media and technology skills”, “life and career skills”. As a result of the analysis of the data, it was seen that the teacher candidates mostly used the "play dough" metaphor (f = 10). Other than that, "rubber" (f = 7), "growing plants" (f = 7), "traveling" (f = 6), "cooking" (f = 5) "strainer" (f = 5), "driving a car" (f = 5), "bridge" (f = 4), "chameleon" (f = 4), "drawing pictures" (f = 4) and "library" (f = 4) are the other produced metaphors.
