The purposes of this study were to investigate the relationship among students’ learning approach, motivational goals, previous semester science grades and their achievement in atom and periodic table concepts and explore how well do the learning approach, motivational goal and students’ previous semester science grades predict students’ achievement. The surveys of this study were administered to 416 students enrolled in seventh grade elementary schools located in Ankara, Turkey. Correlational analysis was run to determine the relationships among students’ learning approach, motivational goal and achievement, then multiple regression analysis was conducted to better understand how the predictor variables might be associated with students’ achievement,. Chemistry Achievement Test, Learning Approach Questionnaire, Achievement Motivation Questionnaire were administered. Results showed that; meaningful learning, performance orientation and self effi cacy were positively correlated with learning orientation. While students’ previous semester science grades were positively correlated with achievement, meaningful learning, and self- effi cacy, it was negatively correlated with rote learning and performance orientation. Both rote learning and approach performance orientation was negatively correlated with self effi cacy. Moreover, there was a positive relationship between rote learning and performance orientation. Multiple regression analyses indicated that rote learning and students’ previous semester science grades were contributed to the students’ achievement.

Investigation of the Effect of Peer-Led Team Learning Model on University Students’ Exam Achievement in General Chemistry
Eren Şişman, Nuran Ece; Çiğdemoğlu, Ceyhan; Geban, Ömer (2018-06-01)
The purpose of this study is to compare freshmen engineering students’ exam achievement in general chemistry course using peer-led team learning model and traditional instruction and to investigate the effect of the methods on different achieving level students. A total of 128 students who were instructed by the same professor participated in the study. Both in PLTL and traditional class consisted of different engineering disciplines. Throughout the semester, PLTL model was implemented in the experimental...
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...
Facilitators and distractors of effective learning: perceptions of middle school students, teachers, and parents /
Kasapoğlu, Koray; Yıldırım, Ali; Department of Curriculum and Instruction (2014)
This study aims to explore teachers’, students’, and their parents’ conceptions of effective learning and to examine factors that facilitate or distract effective learning in social studies and science courses at the sixth and seventh grades. The study, through a qualitative, phenomenological research design, was conducted in eight middle schools in Afyonkarahisar, Turkey. The participants were 16 teachers, 48 students, and 24 parents. Data were mainly collected through individual interviews with teachers a...
How does the science writing heuristic approach affect students' performances of different academic achievement levels? A case for high school chemistry
Kingir, Sevgi; Geban, Ömer; GÜNEL, MURAT (2012-01-01)
This study investigates the effects of the Science Writing Heuristic (SWH), known as an argumentation-based science inquiry approach, on Grade 9 students' performance on a post-test in relation to their academic achievement levels. Four intact classes taught by 2 chemistry teachers from a Turkish public high school were selected for the study; one class from each teacher was assigned as the treatment group, and the other class from each teacher was assigned as the control group. Students in the treatment gr...
Using the science writing heuristic approach to promote student understanding in chemical changes and mixtures
Kıngır, Sevgi; Geban, Ömer; Günel, Murat; Department of Secondary Science and Mathematics Education (2011)
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of Science Writing Heuristic (SWH) approach on 9th grade students’ understanding of chemistry concepts and chemistry achievement in chemical changes and mixtures units. Four 9th grade classes taught by the two chemistry teachers from a public high school were selected for the study. Each teacher’s one intact class was assigned as the experimental group and the other class was assigned as the control group. Students in the experimental group were...
