The current study explored how the self-regulatory instruction (SRI) based on guided inquiry approach affect 11th grade students’ achievement in Solubility Equilibrium and Acids and Bases, motivation, and learning strategies compared to traditionally-designed chemistry instruction. In addition, the self-regulatory processes in which students engaged and the development of these processes over the course of the study were examined. Eleven dependent variables related to the three dimensions of SRL (motivation, cognition, and metacognition) were studied under two categories. Motivational variables included mastery-approach goal orientation, mastery-avoidance goal orientation, performance-approach goal orientation, performance-avoidance goal orientation, chemistry self-efficacy for cognitive skills, and self-efficacy for chemistry laboratory. On the other hand, cognitive variables involved achievement in Solubility Equilibrium and Acids and Bases, and rehearsal, elaboration, organization and metacognitive self-regulation strategies. Mixed Methods Design was employed: Nonrandomized Control Group Pretest-Posttest Design as a Type of Quasi Experimental Design was utilized as a Quantitative Method and Case Study was utilized as a Qualitative Method. Totally 78 students participated in the study: 38 students in the experimental group and 40 students in the control group. Quantitative data were collected using Solubility Equilibrium and Acids and Bases Test, Goal Orientation Scale, High School Chemistry Self-Efficacy Scale, and Cognitive and Metacognitive Strategies Scale. The instruments were administered as pre-tests before the intervention and as post-tests after the intervention. Additionally, four students from each classroom were selected as focal students using maximum variation sampling method. Interviews, journals, and think aloud protocols were used as qualitative instruments. Two separate mixed Multivariate Analyses of Variance were run to analyze the quantitative data: one for motivational variables and another for cognitive variables as dependent variables. In terms of motivational variables, results of quantitative and qualitative analyses revealed that SRI supported development of students’ self-efficacy beliefs; especially their self-efficacy beliefs for chemistry laboratory. Regarding cognitive variables, an improvement in students’ achievement was observed in favor of experimental group; however, its effect was less compared to self-efficacy beliefs. Although, quantitative analyses did not yield any significant difference among groups in terms of the use of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, analyses of think aloud protocols revealed that students in the experimental group used more cognitive and metacognitive strategies and in turn showed higher academic performance

Implementation of self-regulatory instruction to promote students' achievement and learning strategies in the high school chemistry classroom
Kadioglu-Akbulut, Cansel; Kondakçı, Esen (2021-01-01)
The current study investigated the effectiveness of self-regulatory instruction developed based on guided inquiry on 11th grade students' use of learning strategies and achievement in chemistry, compared to traditionally designed chemistry instruction. Additionally, the self-regulatory processes in which students engaged and the development of these processes over the course of the study were examined. For this purpose, mixed-method design was employed. In total, 78 students participated in the study: 38 st...
EFFECTIVENESS OF CASE-BASED LEARNING INSTRUCTION ON STUDENTS' UNDERSTANDING OF SOLUBILITY EQUILIBRIUM CONCEPTS
Cam, Aylin; Geban, Ömer (2013-01-01)
This study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of learning activities based on case-based learning over traditionally designed chemistry instruction on eleventh grade students' understanding of solubility equilibrium. The subjects of this study consisted of 63 eleventh grade students from two intact classes of an urban high school instructed with same chemistry teacher. Each teaching method was randomly assigned as control and experimental group. The experimental group received case-based learnin...
Implementation of case-based instruction on electrochemistry at the 11th grade level
Kondakçı, Esen (2017-10-01)
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of case-based instruction over traditional instruction in improving 11th grade students' understanding of electrochemistry concepts, attitudes toward chemistry, chemistry self-efficacy beliefs, and motivation to learn chemistry. In total, 113 students (47 males and 66 females) from three high schools participated in this study. Two of the classes from each school were randomly assigned to be either the experimental or control group. The experimental group was ins...
Conceptual change texts oriented instruction in teaching solution concepts
Ünlü, Yalçın; Geban, Ömer; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2014)
This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of conceptual change text over traditionally designed chemistry instruction on understanding of solubility equilibrium concepts. Also students’ attitudes toward chemistry as a school subject and toward conceptual change texts were investigated. Moreover, students’ science process skills and effect of the gender difference were also investigated. 108 11th grade students from four classess of a Chemistry course tought by same teacher in TOKİ Anatolian High...
Implementation of case-based instruction on electrochemistry at 11th grade level
Tarkın, Ayşegül; Kondakçı, Esen; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2014)
The main purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of case-based instruction over traditional instruction on eleventh grade high school students’ understanding of electrochemistry concepts. In addition, the effect of instruction on students’ attitudes toward chemistry, chemistry self-efficacy beliefs and motivation to learn chemistry were investigated. The study was carried out during 2010-2011 spring semester in three Anatolian high schools in Ankara, Turkey. A total of 113 (47 males and 66 fe...
