Effect of Self-Evaluation on Pre-service Mathematics Teachers’ Self-Efficacy in Language of Mathematics

Yıl 2017, Cilt: 7 Sayı: 1, 1 - 34, 16.02.2017

Öz

Mathematics is a
universal language and mathematics teachers are responsible for teaching this
language. However, teachers generally ignore knowledge and skills of
mathematical language and this may be explained by Bandura’s (1997)
self-efficacy theory (Gray, 2004). The aim of this study was to investigate the
effect of self-evaluation of pre-service elementary mathematics teachers on
their self-efficacies with regard to language of mathematics by using the mixed
method sequential explanatory design. The data was obtained with the developed
instrument quantitatively in the first phase and qualitatively in the second
phase. The results of the first phase indicated that there was no significant
difference between pretest and posttest self-efficacy scores. On the other
hand, the results of the second phase indicated that participants perceived the
language of mathematics as using native language or using pedagogical
approaches and they weren’t aware of the responsibility of teaching the
language of mathematics besides mathematical concepts.
