Physics teachers' beliefs related to Turkish high school physics curriculum: a multiple case study Kapucu, Serkan; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Yıldırım, Ufuk; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2012) The purpose of this study was to investigate four in-service physics teachers’ beliefs related to Turkish High School Physics Curriculum (THSPC) and to what extent these beliefs are reflected in their instructional practices. Data were collected through interviews, classroom observations and an open-ended questionnaire. Teachers’ responses to interview questions showed that they believed that teaching physics according to the THSPC helped students use their skills, become interested in physics lessons, rela...
Physics Teachers’ Behavioral Control and Normative Beliefs about Teaching Physics According to the National High School Physics Curriculum in Turkey Kapucu, Serkan; Yıldırım, Ufuk (2014-01-01) In Turkey, a new Turkish High School Physics Curriculum (THSPC) was put into practice, starting initially with the Grade 9 in the2008-2009 education-year. When compared with the previous ones, this curriculum emphasized the importance of students’ active involvement in learning, use of real-life contexts and development of new skills. Even though what is intended with the new curriculum reflects the global trends in science/physics education, its success (or ...
Physics teachers' beliefs about the attainment of skill objectives in Turkish high school physics curriculum and to what extent they are reflected in their instructional practices KAPUCU, SERKAN; Yıldırım, Ufuk (2012-09-24)
Physics Teachers’ Beliefs about the Attainment of Skill Objectives and the Extent of These Beliefs’ Reflection on Teachers’ Instructional Practices Kapucu, Serkan; Yıldırım, Ufuk (2013-01-01) Turkish Ministry of National Education has made important changes in both primary and secondary school curricula in the last decade. The Turkish High School Physics Curriculum (THSPC) after these changes was put into practice first in 2008- 2009 education year. Apart from being the first written curriculum with written objectives, this curriculum also contained— differently from other previous physics curricula—skill objectives. This included objectives related to problem solving skills (PSS) and informatio...
