Examining Elementary Students’ Attitude towards Learning Mathematics with Technology and Anxiety
Öz: Purpose of this study was to examine elementary students' attitudetowards learning mathematics with technology and anxiety. In order toexamine students' attitude towards learning mathematics withtechnology, The Technology and Mathematics Attitude Scaledeveloped by Pierce, Stacey and Barkatsas (2007) was adapted Turkish.Results of the study revealed that there were four sub-dimensions,behavioral engagement (α=.77), mathematics confidence (α=.85),affective engagement (α=.82), attitude towards use of technology forlearning mathematics (α=.80). Also, elementary students’ attitudetowards mathematics were positive and they had low level of mathanxiety. There was a negative and significant relationship betweenstudents' attitude towards learning mathematics with technology andanxiety. Results showed the needs for research studies to examineelementary students’ attitude towards learning mathematics withtechnology and math anxiety.
Anahtar Kelime: İlkokul Öğrencilerinin Teknoloji Destekli Matematik Öğrenmeye Yönelik Tutum ve Kaygı Düzeylerinin İncelenmesi
Öz: Bu araştırmada öncelikli olarak ilkokul 4. sınıf öğrencilerinin teknoloji destekli matematik öğrenmeye yönelik tutumlarını belirlemek amacıyla Pierce, Stacey ve Barkatsas (2007) tarafından geliştirilen Matematik ve Teknoloji Tutum Ölçeğinin uyarlama çalışması yapılmıştır. Daha sonra ise uyarlanan ölçme aracı kullanılarak öğrencilerin teknoloji destekli matematik öğrenmeye yönelik tutum ve kaygı düzeyleri incelenmiştir. Bulgular, uyarlanan ölçeğin davranışsal katılım (=.77), matematiksel güven (=.85), duyuşsal katılım (=.82) ve teknoloji destekli matematik öğrenmeye yönelik tutum (=.80) olmak üzere 4 alt boyuttan oluştuğunu ortaya koymuştur. Uyarlanan ölçeğin geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, öğrencilerin matematik dersine yönelik genel olarak tutumlarının olumlu ve kaygı düzeylerinin düşük olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin matematik dersine yönelik tutum ve kaygı düzeyleri arasında anlamlı ve negatif bir ilişki olduğu görülmektedir. Sonuçlar, ilkokul öğrencilerin tutumları ve kaygı düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkiyi derinlemesine incelemek amacıyla çalışmaların yapılması ihtiyacını ortaya koymuştur.
