The aim of this study was to develop and validate Science Homework Scale (SHS) which assesses middle-school (grades 6-8) students' perceptions of teachers' homework practices and homework self-regulation in science. Students' perceptions of teachers' homework practices included homework quality and feedback on homework while students' homework self-regulation consisted of homework goal orientations (i.e. mastery, performance, and work-avoidance), homework strategy use (i.e. deep learning and management), and homework procrastination; 3 studies were conducted with 7th-grade Turkish students. In study 1 (n = 618), the data were analyzed through exploratory factor analyses. In study 2 (n = 758), in order to test the hypothesized factor structure, the data were subjected to confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs). Goodness-of-fit indices indicated good model fit and Cronbach alpha reliabilities of subscales ranged from 0.77 to 0.96. Additionally, multi-group CFAs supported factorial invariance of SHS across boys and girls. In the 3rd study (n = 8318), CFA results supported 8-factor structure. Next, a homework model which suggested relationships among students' perceptions of teachers' homework practices, homework self-regulation, and achievement was proposed. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) analyses results revealed that students' perceptions of homework quality and feedback on homework were associated with homework self-regulation components which in turn related to science achievement.

A study of science teachers homework practices
Taş, Yasemin; Sungur, Semra; Öztekin, Ceren (2014-01-01)
This study investigates Turkish middle school science teachers' homework practices, the value teachers attach to homework and teachers' communication with parents about homework. One hundred and sixty-eight teachers completed surveys. Teachers reported to assign homework frequently: 93.4 per cent of the teachers reported that they assign homework either once a week or at the end of every class. Problem solving and doing research on a topic were the most commonly assigned homework types, while making summari...
Ortaokul Öğrencilerine Verilen Matematik Ev Ödevleri Hakkında Öğrenci, Öğretmen ve Veli Görüşleri
Kaplan Can, Gözde; GELBAL, SELAHATTİN (2022-04-01)
Çalışmada ortaokullarda öğrencilere verilen matematik ev ödevlerinin özellikleri, ödevlere verilen geri bildirim türleri, ev ödevlerine aile katılımının nasıl sağlandığı ve öğrencilerin, öğretmenlerin ve velilerin matematik ev ödevleriyle ilgili yaşadıkları zorluklar araştırılmıştır. Araştırma bir çeşitleme karma yöntem çalışmasıdır. Araştırmaya 563 ortaokul öğrencisi, 120 ortaokul matematik öğretmeni ve 10 veli katılmıştır. Çalışmanın verileri öğretmen ve öğrenciler için hazırlanan anketler ve öğretmenler ...
Development and Psychometric Evaluation of the High School Chemistry Self-Efficacy Scale
Çapa Aydın, Yeşim (SAGE Publications, 2009-10-01)
The aim of this study was to develop a scale assessing high school students' self-efficacy beliefs in chemistry-related tasks and to assess psychometric properties of scores on this scale. A pilot study with a sample of 150 high school students provided initial evidence for two-factor structure of 16-item scale, named High School Chemistry Self-Efficacy Scale (HCSS). The final form of the HCSS was administered to 362 high school students in Turkey. Confirmatory factor analysis fit indices and factor pattern...
An Investigation of students‘ homework self-regulation and teachers‘ homework practices s
Taş, Yasemin; Sungur Vural, Semra; Öztekin, Ceren; Department of Elementary Education (2013)
This study investigated Grade 7 students’ Science and Technology homework self-regulation in relation to science achievement and teachers’ homework practices. This was a nationwide study; 8318 seventh grade students and 344 Science and Technology teachers in Turkey participated. Participating students completed Student Homework Scale and Science Achievement Test while their Science and Technology teachers responded to the items in Teacher Homework Scale. Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) analyses were cond...
Development and validation of nature of science instrument for elementary school students
HACIEMİNOĞLU, ESME; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül; ERTEPINAR, HAMİDE (2014-05-01)
The purposes of this study were to develop and validate an instrument for assessing elementary students’ nature of science (NOS) views and to explain the elementary school students’ NOS views, in terms of varying grade levels and gender. The sample included 782 students enrolled in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. Exploratory factor analysis factor structures and confirmatory factor analysis fit indices confirmed the existence of the hypothesised four dimensions in the structure of the nature of science i...
