Elementary students’ metacognition and epistemological beliefs considering science achievement, gender and socioeconomic status
Topçu, Mustafa Sami; Yılmaz Tüzün, Özgül (2009-11-01)
There were two focuses in this study. The first one was to investigate the relationship among science achievement, metacognition, and epistemological beliefs for both 4th and 5th grade and 6th through 8th grade students. The second focus was to explore the relationships among gender, socioeconomic status (SES), metacognition, and epistemological beliefs. Altogether 941 elementary students participated in this study. For 4th and 5th grade students, knowledge of cognition, regulation of cognition, and qui...

Prospective teachers’ self-efficacy for preparing and implementing worthwhile mathematical tasks
Yürekli, Bilge; Işıksal Bostan, Mine; Çakıroğlu, Erdinç; Department of Elementary Education (2015)
The purpose of this study was twofold. First, the aim was to examine prospective elementary mathematics teachers’ self-efficacy for preparing and implementing worthwhile mathematical tasks throughout a mathematics teaching methods course. Then, it was sought to investigate factors with impact on prospective teachers’ self-efficacy in the context of methods course and explain how each influence operated through hypothesized sources of self-efficacy. Nine junior prospective teachers participated in this quali...

Applying beliefs and resources frameworks to the psychometric analyses of an epistemology survey
Yerdelen-Damar, Sevda; ELBY, Andrew; Eryılmaz, Ali (2012-02-08)
This study explored how researchers' views about the form of students' epistemologies influence how the researchers develop and refine surveys and how they interpret survey results. After running standard statistical analyses on 505 physics students' responses to the Turkish version of the Maryland Physics Expectations-II survey, probing students' epistemologies and expectations, we interpreted the results through two different theoretical lenses, the beliefs perspective and the resources perspective. We sh...
