In this research, it is aimed to review the metacognition-themed articles, which have been conducted and published in Turkey on the topic of the mathematics education, within the scope of methodological features and in terms of the subjects/reached results. The research was designed with a descriptive content analysis method. 117 journals published in our country were determined and 41 articles were included in the research. The obtained data were subjected to a descriptive analysis. As a result of the analyses, it was determined that approximately half of the metacognitive-themed articles were conducted with a quantitative approach and descriptive methods. It was noticed that about half of the articles were conducted at the secondary school level, in the second place, that the university level took place with a one-fourth of rate. In terms of the data collection tools, it was found that mostly questionnaire/open-ended questionnaire/scale/tests were used, observation, interview, think-aloud protocol, and documents were applied; in terms of the data analysis techniques, the correlation, descriptive statistics, independent samples t-test, one-way variance analysis, and regression analysis were used. It was reached that when sorted by frequency the correlational, leveling, metacognitive behaviours of the participants in the problem-solving processes were investigated, and experimental research were conducted.

Türkiye’de Yayımlanan ve Matematiksel Bir İçerik Barındıran Makelelere Yönelik İnceleme

Öz

Bu araştırmada, Türkiye’de matematik eğitimi alanında yapılmış ve yayımlanmış olan üstbiliş temalı makaleleri yöntemsel özellikleri ve konular/ulaşılan sonuçlar bağlamında incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma betimsel içerik analizi yöntemi temel alınarak tasarlanmıştır. Ülkemizde yayın yapan 117 dergi belirlenmiş ve toplam 40 makale araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler betimsel analize tabi tutulmuştur. Analizler sonucunda; yaklaşık yarısının nicel bir yaklaşımla ve betimsel yöntemler kullanılarak gerçekleştirildiği belirlenmiştir. Makalelerin yaklaşık yarısının ortaokul düzeyinde gerçekleştirildiği, ikinci sırada ise yaklaşık dörtte birlik bir bölümle üniversite düzeyinin yer aldığı görülmüştür. En fazla anket/açık uçlu anket/ölçek/testler olmakla birlikte gözlem, görüşme, sesli düşünme protokolü ve dokümanların veri toplama sürecinde tercih edildiği ve verilerin analizinde, korelasyon, betimsel istatistikler, bağımsız örneklem t-testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi ve regresyon analizlerinin kullanıldığı saptanmıştır. Matematik alanında üstbiliş temalı yapılan makaleler konu olarak yapılma sıklılğına göre ilişkisel, düzey belirleme, problem çözme sürecinde katılımcıların sergilemiş oldukları üst bilişsel davranışların belirlenmesi ve deneysel araştırmalar şeklinde sıralamıştır.
