The Self-Efficacy as Predictors of the Metacognition Awareness in Children

Öz:
It is important for children to have some skills and competencies in the acquisitionof effective learning skills. Metacognition awareness that allow children to becomeaware of what they know and think to learn a knowledge and build on the knowledgethey will learn in this process; they need to be self-efficacy in order to accomplish a taskand to be able to come up with new problems or situations. In this context, the researchaimed to determine whether self-efficacy in children predicts metacognition awareness,and also the results of the relationship between self-efficacy and metacognition and thevalidity and reliability of the measurement tools used are included in the study. In theresearch, the correlational survey model, which is one of the quantitative researchmethod, is used to determine the relationship between two or more variables. The studygroup of this study consists of 350 children aged between 12 and 14 years, continuing tomiddle schools which are depends on Ministry of National Education in Turkey. ThePersonal Information Form, "Self-Efficacy Scale for Children" and "Scale ofMetacognition for Children" were used together to collect the data of the study. Thereliability coefficients of the measuring instruments were determined with the Cronbachalpha coefficient, after the fitting of the measuring instruments used in the study wasconfirmed on the working sample. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the self-efficacyscale for children were calculated .88; and the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for themetacognition scale for children were calculated as .92. To investigate the relationshipbetween self-efficacy and metacognition awareness, the Pearson MomentsMultiplication Correlation Coefficient is calculated and confirmatory factor analysiswas used to check the fit of the scales with the sample group. It has been determinedthat self-efficacy is a predictor of metacognition awareness according to the results ofmultiple regression to examine whether self-efficacy beliefs in children are predictive ofmetacognition awareness. The development of metacognition and self-efficacy levelstogether in children is one of the issues to be emphasized by parents and educators.

Çocuklarda Üstbiliş Farkındalığının Yordayıcısı olarak Özyeterlik

Öz:
Çocuklar için etkili öğrenme becerilerinin edinilmesi konusunda bazı becerilere ve yetkinliklere sahip olmak önemlidir. Çocukların bir bilgi edinmek için bildikleri ve düşündüklerinin farkında olmalarını sağlayan ve bu süreçte öğrenecekleri bilgiyi geliştiren üstbiliş farkındalığına; bir görevi yerine getirmek ve yeni sorunlar veya durumlarla karşılaşabilmek için de öz yeterlik becerilerine sahip olmaları gerekir. Bu bağlamda, araştırmanın amacı, çocukların öz yeterliklerinin üstbiliş becerilerini yordayıp yordamadığını ve öz yeterlik ile üstbiliş arasındaki ilişkinin sonuçlarını ve kullanılan ölçüm araçlarının geçerlik ve güvenilirliğini araştırmaktır. Araştırmada yöntem olarak nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden olan, iki veya daha fazla değişken arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemeyi sağlayan ilişkisel tarama deseni kullanılmıştır. Yaşları 12- 14 arasında değişen Türkiye’de Millî Eğitim Bakanlığına bağlı ortaokullara devam eden 350 ortaokul öğrencisi bu çalışmanın çalışma grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın verilerini toplamak için Kişisel bilgi formu, “Çocuklar için Özyeterlik Ölçeği” ve “Çocuklar için Bilişüstü Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada kullanılan ölçme araçlarının çalışılan örneklem üzerindeki uyumu saptandıktan sonra, ölçme araçlarının güvenirlik katsayılarına Cronbach Alpha katsayısı ile bakılmıştır. Çocuklar için özyeterlik ölçeğinin Cronbach Alfa katsayısı .88; çocuklar için bilişüstü ölçeğinin güvenirlik katsayısı .92 olarak haesaplanmıştır. İki ölçek arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek için Pearson Momentler Çarpımı Korelasyon Katsayısı hesaplanmış; ölçeklerin örneklem grubu ile uyumunu kontrol etmek için doğrulayıcı faktör analizi kullanılmıştır. Çocuklardaki özyeterlik becerilerinin üst biliş becerilerinin yordayıcısı olup olmadığını belirlemek için gerçekleştirilen çoklu regresyon sonuçlarına göre özyeterlik becerileri üstbilişin bir yordayıcısı olduğu bulgularına ulaşılmıştır. Çocuklarda üstbiliş ve özyeterlik becerilerinin birlikte gelişimi aileler ve eğitimciler tarafından önemle üzerinde durulması gereken konular arasında yer almalıdır.
