The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among seventh grade students' mathematics self-efficacy, mathematics anxiety, attitudes towards mathematics, mathematics achievement, gender and school type. In order to examine the difference in self-efficacy, anxiety, attitude and achievement in terms of gender and school type, two-way ANO-VAs were performed. In addition, multiple regression analysis was run to investigate the role of mathematics self-efficacy, anxiety, attitude, gender and school type in predicting mathematics achievement of seventh grade students. Results revealed that there was a significant main effect of gender on mean mathematics self-efficacy scores, attitude scores, anxiety scores and mathematics achievement. However, school type did not have significant main effect on mean self-efficacy scores, anxiety scores, and achievement scores but have significant effect on attitude scores. Findings also supported that self-efficacy, anxiety, attitude, gender and school type significantly predicted the achievement scores of seventh grade students.

An investigation of the relationship among the seventh grade students’ mathematics self efficacy, mathematics anxiety, attitudes towards mathematics and mathematics achievement regarding gender and school type Reçber, Şenol; Işıksal Bostan, Mine; Department of Elementary Science and Mathematics Education (2011) The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among the seventh grade students’ mathematics self efficacy, mathematics anxiety, attitudes towards mathematics, and mathematics achievements regarding gender and school type. Moreover, the role of three personal constructs (self efficacy, anxiety and attitude) and two demographics (gender and school type) on predicting mathematics achievement were also investigated. The Data was collected from 13 elementary schools in Çankaya District of Ankara ...
Exploring secondary mathematics teachers’ conceptions of mathematical literacy Genç, Murat; Erbaş, Ayhan Kürşat; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2017) The purpose of this research study was to investigate secondary mathematics teachers’ conceptions of mathematical literacy. In doing so, the following three crucial interrelated issues were addressed: (i) teachers’ conceptions of what the notion of mathematical literacy means, (ii) teachers’ conceptions of how the development of mathematical literacy could be facilitated, and (iii) teachers’ conceptions of what a mathematics curriculum emphasizing mathematical literacy should look like. The data gathered fo...
The role of dynamic geometry software on mathematical creativity of pre-service mathematics teachers in geometry tasks Melek, Zülal; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Department of Mathematics Education (2021-7-14) The purpose of the study was to investigate the role of the dynamic geometry software on mathematical creativity of pre-service mathematics teachers in geometry tasks. The sample of the present study was five pre-service mathematics teachers in a public university in Ankara. The sample of the study was selected by the convenience sampling method from the pre-service mathematics teachers who took Exploring Geometry with Dynamic Geometry Applications course. The pre service mathematics teachers asked to...
Exploring the influence of teaching mathematics in early childhood course on preservice early childhood teachers’ images and emotions of mathematics, mathematics anxiety and mathematics teaching anxiety Mehmetlioğlu Demirkıran, Deniz; Haser, Çiğdem; Department of Elementary Education (2016) The aim of this study was to describe 47 preservice early childhood education teachers’ mathematics anxiety (MA) and mathematics teaching anxiety (MTA) before taking Teaching Mathematics in Early Childhood (TMEC) course and after completing it through asking their mathematics related images, emotions, mathematics anxiety and mathematics teaching anxiety, and their sources throughout the course. Moreover, the relationship between the prior mathematics anxiety and mathematics teaching anxiety of preservice te...
Evaluating mobile apps for STEM education with in-service teachers Tantu, Özlem; Baran, Evrim; Department of Educational Sciences (2017) The purpose of the study was to investigate the perceptions of in-service teachers on mobile app evaluation for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education. This multi-method research was carried out through interviews with 10 teachers from K-12 schools who were experienced in STEM education and versed in educational mobile app use. Participants included one high school physics teacher, five elementary science teachers, and four information and computer technology teachers from both p...
