“…In addition, according to the regression analysis, among the four sources only the personal experiences source predicted science self-efficacy. Similarly, Yüksel and Geban (2016) conducted a study and detected a high relation between academic self-efficacy and student self-efficacy, and significant and positive relations between chemistry, mathematics, physics and biology success. On the other hand, a positive and significant relation was reported between student self-efficacy and chemistry, mathematics, physics and biology success.…”

The basic aim of the study was to determine the power of mathematics and science self-efficacy resources as the predictors of academic success. The relational scanning model was used in the study, and the study was conducted with 492 students who were studying at sixth and seventh grades of a state school. The mathematics and science self-efficacy resources scales were used as the data collection tool. In addition, the school reports of the semester before the study was conducted were used to determine the academic success levels of the students. The Pearson moments multiplication correlation technique and multiple linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of the data. According to the results, there were significant relations between the mathematics and science selfefficacy resources and the academic success levels at high, medium and low levels. The personal experiences, indirect experiences and social persuasions, which have significant effects on academic success both for mathematics and for science, explained nearly 60% of the change in academic success. The physiological situations towards mathematics did not have any significant effects on academic success. According to the findings, some recommendations have also been made in the study.

“…Although much of this research has focused on adult learning, some has investigated self-directed learning in K-12 settings (Blumenfeld, Marx, Soloway, & Krajcik, 1996;Giannakos, Krogstie, & Aalberg, 2016). These findings have been attributed to the increased presence of certain dimensions of Paulsen's model of cooperative freedoms allowed by such instructional design (Yüksel & Geban, 2015). The present study sought to extend the research on other student-centered pedagogies and strategies into the development of a self-directed learning environment for eighthgrade life science students.…”

Although self-directed learning environments are common in higher education and online learning environments, they are uncommon in secondary educational settings. This mixed-method action research study, in which the author/researcher was also the teacher, reports on the design and implementation of a self-directed learning environment for eighth-grade life science students. This study investigated the impact of this type of learning environment on the behavior and achievement of students. The findings demonstrated an increase in self-regulatory behaviors, higher performance on a state-mandated final exam, and the development of complex and robust student learning networks. Implications for teaching and learning practices and suggestions for further research are discussed.

“…Anxiety is further classified into two type, state, and trait (Yüksel & Geban, 2015). It is triggered by several factors, including knowledge of something, a threatening condition, and lack of self-control (Stevani, Mudjiran, & Iswari, 2016).…”

This study aims to analyze exam anxiety among vocational school students in professional placement based on gender. This is a quantitative research that uses descriptive and comparative methods and a sample of 115 individuals selected through proportional random sampling technique. Data is obtained using an instrument of exam anxiety and were analyzed descriptively by determining mean, standard deviation, and percentage. To determine the difference in anxiety among vocational school students, the t-test technique with analyzed Independent Samples Test was used. The results showed that exam anxiety was generally in the low and high categories in male and female students, respectively. Also, there was a significant difference between students in the professional placement of male and female students.
