Fen, Teknoloji, Mühendislik, Matematik (STEM) Eğitimi Tutum Ölçeğinin Türkçe’ye Uyarlanması

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, ortaokul öğrencilerinin fen, teknoloji, mühendislik, matematik (FeTeMM, STEM) eğitimine karşı tutumlarını belirlemek için Guzey, Harwell ve Moore tarafından (2014) geliştirilen “Students’ Attitudes toward Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics Education” ölçeğinin Türkçe’ye uyarlanarak geçerlik-güvenilirlik çalışmasını yapmaktır. Ölçeğin Türkçe’ye çevirisi İngilizce dil yeterliliği olan bir uzman ve hem fen eğitimi alanında deneyimli hem de İngilizce yeterliliği olan iki kişi tarafından bağımsız olarak yapılmıştır. Daha sonra, bir İngilizce öğretmeni tarafından geri çevirisi yapılmıştır. Son olarak, fen eğitimi ve matematik eğitimi alanlarında uzman iki öğretim üyesinden ve bir fen bilgisi öğretmeninden alınan uzman görüşü doğrultusunda ölçeğe son hali verilmiştir. Çevirilen ölçek, 5., 6,. ve 7. sınıflarda eğitim görmekte olan 545 öğrenciye uygulanmıştır. Açımlayıcı faktör analizinden elde edilen bulgulara göre ölçeğin 24 madde ve dört faktörden oluştuğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Ayrıca cronbach alfa değeri için tutarlılık katsayısı .89, test-tekrar test güvenirlik katsayısı .86 olarak bulunmuştur. Türkçe’ye uyarlanması yapılan bu ölçeğin, 5., 6., ve 7. Sınıf öğrencilerinin FeTeMM-STEM Eğitimine karşı tutumlarını belirlemede geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçek olduğu bulunmuştur

Turkish Adaptation Of The Attitudes Toward Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education Scale

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to adapt the “Students’ Attitudes Toward Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics Education Scale”, which was developed by Guzey, Harwell and Moore (2014), into Turkish and to examine the validity and reliability evidences of the instrument. The instrument aims to investigate 5th,6th and 7th grades students’ attitudes toward Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education. It was translated into Turkish by one expert in the field of English language teaching and one expert in the field of science education independently. Then, back translation was done by one English teacher. At the end, based on the expert opinions taken from two experts in the science and mathematics education and one science teacher, the instrument was revised. The final form of the instrument was administered to 545 students who were in 5th, 6th and 7th grades. According to the results of exploratory factor analysis, the instrumet consists of 24 items and four factors. Cronbach alpha value of was found as .89 and test-retest reliability coefficients was calculated as .86. The adapted instrument was found as valid and reliable instrument in order to examine 5th, 6th, and 7th grades students’ attitudes toward STEM education, which has been developing rapidly in Turkey in recent years.
