Despite many studies conducted on TPACK, the relationships between the components of the framework and how to perform TPACK assessment remain to be important research questions. The aim of this study is to shed light on these two questions by analyzing lesson plans collected from 138 preservice mathematics teachers obtained from a technology-integration course over a period of five years. An instrument that describes each component of the TPACK framework was developed and applied to performance-assessment of preservice teachers. The analysis is augmented by a self-assessment survey to compare and contrast the differences between the two. According to the results, four knowledge domains within the TPACK framework could be distinguished, which are denoted as Core, Tech, TPACK-P, and TPACK-C. The performance- and self assessment based measures were found to yield similar results except for pedagogy related knowledge domains, in particular for pedagogical knowledge (PK), technological pedagogical knowledge (TPK), and the TPACK.

Investigation of community of inquiry framework in regard to self-regulation, metacognition and motivation KİLİS, SELCAN; Yıldırım, Zahide (Elsevier BV, 2018-11-01) Following theoretical frameworks including social-cognitive theory, constructivism and creating collaborative learning community, this correlational study elucidates the community of inquiry framework in regard to self-regulation, metacognition, and motivation in an online learning setting. Data were collected from 1535 students enrolled to an online Information and Communication Technology-I course offered by the Department of Informatics at a well-known public university. The data were collected online th...
Analysis of a Content-based Needs Assessment Survey for Physics Teachers OKTAY, Özlem; Eryılmaz, Ali (Hacettepe University, 2020-04-01) The purpose of the study is to develop and analyze a content-based needs assessment survey for physics teachers. With this aim, a Teacher Survey on the Nature of Physics (TSNOP) was developed as a measurement instrument for the study. The TSNOP was used to identify inservice physics teachers' needs, wishes, expectations and problems for the Nature of Physics (NOP) unit of a Professional Development Program (PDP). A total of 60 inservice physics teachers participated in the study. TSNOP includes four specifi...
The Contribution of Cognitive and Metacognitive Strategy Use to Students Science Achievement Akyol, Gülsüm; Öztekin, Ceren; Sungur, Semra (Informa UK Limited, 2010-01-01) This study examined the differences in the level of 7th-grade Turkish students' cognitive and metacognitive strategy use (rehearsal, elaboration, organization, critical thinking, and metacognitive self-regulation) in science and investigated the contribution of cognitive and metacognitive strategy use to students' science achievement. The present study also explored the relationships between students' background characteristics (gender, prior knowledge, socioeconomic status) and their cognitive and metacogn...
Exploring the development of pre-service science teachers’ views on nature of science in inquiry-based laboratory instruction Özgelen, Sinan; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; Department of Educational Sciences (2010) The purposes of this study were to explore understanding of preservice science teachers’ (PSTs) nature of science (NOS) views during the explicit-reflective and inquiry-based laboratory instruction and investigate PSTs’ perspectives and experiences related to learning NOS aspects in the science laboratory course. This study was carried out during the Laboratory Application in Science II course. A total of 45 PSTs participated to the study. The design of the study was qualitative and exploratory in nature. I...
Students' attitudes towards integration of ICTs in a reading course: A case in Turkey Sağın Şimşek, Sultan Çiğdem (Elsevier BV, 2008-08-01) The purpose of this paper is to investigate students' attitudes towards the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in a reading skills course offered at Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey. To this end, 30 first year students of the foreign language education (FLE) department followed a four-week component of an ICTs-integrated reading skills course. To examine the students' attitudes towards the course and the new learning environment at the end of the teaching period, an att...
