Self-Evaluations of High School Students Regarding to Own Metacognitive Behaviours In Problem Solving
Öz
The aim of the study is to ensure that high school students evaluate themselves in terms of metacognitive behaviors that they demonstrate during their problem solving process through their experiences of problem solving and to examine this process. The study was designed as a qualitative study and the obtained data were interpreted by descriptive analysis. The working group consists of a total of 94 students in 9th and 10th grade in a high school in a district of Yozgat in the academic year of 2015-2016. To collect data, students were first given 2 problems. Students are asked to clearly solve these problems and write down what they think. A questionnaire was applied to the students who solved these problems to evaluate the metacognitive behaviors in the problem solving process. When the data obtained from the questionnaire are analyzed, it can be considered that the majority of the students exhibit highly metacognitive behaviors without problem solving. However, the problem solutions of the students do not match these results very much; it is understood that the metacognitive behaviors that the students say they have shown and the metacognitive behaviors that emerged from examining the problem solutions are not generally parallel to each other.
