Metacognition is important for learners of all ages. Therefore, this situation raises all important questions about how to develop metacognitive skills and habits in the classroom regardless of primary, secondary and high school. The aim of this study is to investigate the metacognitive awareness of primary and secondary school students according to the variables of gender, grade level and region. The model of this research, which was conducted to determine the metacognitive awareness levels of the students in primary and secondary school, is a survey model. Metacognitive Awareness Scale was administered to 399 students (195 girls, 204 boys) in third, fourth and fifth grade. The research shows that the metacognitive awareness scores of primary and secondary school students do not differentiate in gender. According to another result obtained in the research; metacognitive awareness scores of pirmary and secondary school students differentiate in locality. The students’ metacognitive awareness is higher than that of the urban local. When the metacognitive awareness scores were examined according to the grade level, it was seen that the metacognitive awareness scores of the fifth grade students were higher than the other groups. However, there is no significant difference between the metacognitive awareness scores of the third and fourth grade students. Similar studies aiming to examine the development of metacognitive awareness of students are thought to be useful in planning the education process in this direction.
This study aims to investigate the relationship between the reading motivation and reading comprehension self-efficacy perceptions of fourth-grade students.The research model is the correlational survey model, one of the quantitative research methods. The study group of the research consists of 571 students studying in the fourth grade. The ‘Reading Motivation Scale’ and the ‘Reading Comprehension Self-efficacy Perception Scale’ were used as data collection tools. The SPSS statistical software program was used for the analysis of the data. Independent Samples T-Test and ANOVA, which are parametric tests, were used in the analysis of the data. When the results obtained in the study were examined, it was seen that the students’ reading motivation total scores were at a ‘good’ level, and that there was no significant difference in their total scores according to the gender and Turkish report card grade variables. Similarly, it was concluded that the students’ reading comprehension self-efficacy perception total scores were also at a ‘good’ level, and that there was no difference between students depending on the gender and Turkish report card grade variables. Finally, it was determined that there was a ‘moderate’ positive relationship between the students’ reading motivations and their reading comprehension self-efficacy perceptions.
Bu araştırmanın amacı Türkiye’de eğitim alanında üstbiliş konusunda yapılmış olan lisansüstü tezlerin incelenmesidir. Araştırma; betimsel tarama modeliyle desenlenmiştir. Araştırmanın evreni; Yüksek Öğretim Kurulu (YÖK) Yayın Dokümantasyon Daire Başkanlığı bünyesinde bulunan eğitim fakülteleri kapsamında üstbiliş konusunda yapılmış 192 lisansüstü tez oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin analizinde içerik analizi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre üstbiliş konulu tezler 2007-2020 yılları arasında dağılım göstermiştir. Tezler tür bakımından incelendiğinde 128 tezin yüksek lisans; 64 tezin ise doktora düzeyinde olduğu görülmüştür. Tezlerde çoğunlukla nicel araştırma yöntemleri tercih edilmiştir. Hedef kitle dağılımına bakıldığında en fazla lisans öğrencileriyle çalışılmıştır. Tezlerde konu alanı olarak en çok matematik eğitimi üzerine; üstbiliş konusunda ise üstbilişsel farkındalık, üstbilişsel beceri ve üstbilişsel stratejiler üzerinde durulduğu görülmüştür. Tezlerde yapılan öneriler genellikle iki boyut çerçevesinde toplanmıştır.
Bu araştırmanın amacı ilkokul dördüncü sınıf öğrencilerinin farklı metin türlerine yönelik oluşturdukları soruların yenilenmiş Bloom taksonomi basamaklarına göre incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın modeli nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizi yöntemidir. Araştırmada 450 dördüncü sınıf öğrencisinden veri toplanmıştır. Geçersiz veriler elenerek öyküleyici metin için 425 ve bilgilendirici metin için 420 veri analiz edilmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak Milli Eğitim Bakanlığı dördüncü sınıf Türkçe ders kitabında yer alan öyküleyici ve bilgilendirici metin kullanılmıştır. Veriler betimsel analiz yoluyla analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada elde edilen sonuçlara göre öğrenciler hem öyküleyici hem de bilgilendirici metinde çoğunlukla hatırlama ve anlama basamağında soru yazmıştır. Uygulama ve analiz basamağında ise öğrencilerin soru yazmadığı görülmüştür. Bir kısım öğrenci ise değerlendirme ve yaratma basamakları olan üst düzey bilişsel basamaklarda soru yazmıştır. Elde edilen bu sonuçlar öğrencilerin derslerde, kitaplarda ve sınavlarda daha ziyade alt düzey sorularla karşılaşmaları dolayısıyla soru sorma becerilerinin de bu yönde gelişmesi şeklinde yorumlanabilir. Uygun öğrenme ortamlarının sağlanması sonucunda öğrencilerin beklenilenden çok daha üst düzey düşünme becerileri kazanacakları düşünülmektedir.
The aim of this study is to adapt the Early Childhood Reading Motivation Scale to Turkish. A general survey model was used as the research method. The study group of the research consists of 571 primary school students aged 6-7 years. The Early Childhood Reading Motivation Scale to be adapted into Turkish was used as the data collection tool, while the Reading Skills Assessment Scale was used in the external criterion validity analysis. The SPSS 22.0 and LISREL 8.5 statistical software programs were used for data analysis. Following the validity and reliability analyses, it was concluded that the Early Childhood Reading Motivation Scale is a valid and reliable scale for measuring reading motivation in primary school students aged 6-7. When the literature was examined, it was seen that no scale aimed at measuring early childhood reading motivation had been developed or adapted to Turkish. In this sense, it is thought that this study will have an important place in the literature.
