Book Contexts of Learning Mathematics and Science

Download or read book Contexts of Learning Mathematics and Science written by Sarah J. Howie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-04-18 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of research from over fifteen countries, asking which background and environmental factors influence achievement in mathematics and science. This research is based on data from the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), which was conducted under the auspices of the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA) in 1995 and 1998. In many countries researchers have started secondary analysis of the data in search for relationships between contextual factors and achievement. In these analyses two different approaches can be distinguished, which can be characterised by the metaphors of ‘fishing’ and ‘hunting’. In the ‘fishing’ approach, researchers begin with an open mind, considering all possible context variables as potentially influential. Applying analysis techniques such as regression analysis, Lisrel, PLS, HLM, and MLN, they then identify important factors within their countries or across a number of countries. In the ‘hunting’ approach, researchers hypothesise certain context variables and trace the effect of these variables on mathematics and/or science achievement.

Book The Influence of Teacher and Institutional Support on Academic Self efficacy  Academic Outcome Expectations  and Academic Interest

Download or read book The Influence of Teacher and Institutional Support on Academic Self efficacy Academic Outcome Expectations and Academic Interest written by Maureen Quiles Ponce and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While college and career readiness benchmarks were created to provide evidence that a student is academically ready to succeed in a post-secondary educational setting, many high school graduates do not reach these academic benchmarks, and of students who go on to college, many do not complete their bachelor’s degree. Furthermore, current college and career readiness markers neglect to consider non-academic factors despite research suggesting that psychosocial factors strongly influence readiness beyond academic performance. The literature supports the premise that other powerful forces, namely social-cognitive factors also shape learning and performance, which in turn shapes academic and career outcomes. Self-efficacy emerged as an important social-cognitive factor which can influence academic readiness and by extension, college and career readiness as it affects the ability to adapt and meet varying academic demands and is a key construct in career identity development and interest development. To address this gap, this quantitative study used a modified model of Social Cognitive Career Theory to examine the influence of the learning environment on the academic self-efficacy beliefs, academic outcome expectations, and academic interest of undergraduate college students. The primary research focus was to study the relationship of the students’ perceptions about the level of teacher and institutional support to their beliefs about their ability to complete academic tasks, expected outcomes, and academic interests or persistence. Data was collected from 158 undergraduate college students to answer the research questions. The results of the study found that academic interest was statistically significant in mean between upper and underclassman undergraduate college students. Teacher support explained a significant amount of variance in academic self-efficacy and academic outcome expectations. Additionally, academic self-efficacy and academic outcome expectations were correlated. Institutional support explained a significant amount of variance in academic outcome expectations, and academic outcome expectations explained a significant amount of variance in academic interest. Finally, no relationship was observed between institutional support to academic self-efficacy nor between academic self-efficacy and academic interest. Implications, limitations, and further research recommendations are discussed for school counselors, teachers, administrators, and counselor educators as they relate to addressing the college and career readiness needs of the student.

Book Affective Dimensions in Chemistry Education

Download or read book Affective Dimensions in Chemistry Education written by Murat Kahveci and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a unique resource for those wishing to address the affective domain as they research and solve problems in chemistry education. Contributions by world-leading experts cover both fundamental considerations and practical case studies. This work fills a gap in the literature of chemistry education, which so far has focussed mainly on the cognitive domain. The affective domain refers to feelings-based constructs such as attitudes, values, beliefs, opinions, emotions, interests, motivation, and a degree of acceptance or rejection. It can affect students’ interest in science topics and their motivation to persevere in learning science concepts.
