İlköğretim II. Kademe Öğrencilerinin Matematik Kaygı Düzeylerinin İncelenmesi

Öz

Bu çalışmada, ilköğretim II. Kademe öğrencilerinin matematik kaygı düzeylerindeki farklılık cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeylerine göre araştırılmıştır. Bunun için Bindak (2005) tarafından geliştirilen bir ölçekten yararlanılmıştır. Ölçek, 2005-2006 eğitim-öğretim yılında Sivas il merkezindeki ilköğretim 6., 7. ve 8. sınıflarda öğrenim gören ve random yöntemiyle seçilen 204 öğrenciye uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizi, ilköğretim II. Kademe öğrencilerinin matematik kaygı düzeylerinin orta düzeyde olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca, öğrencilerin matematik kaygı düzeylerinin cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeyine göre anlamlı düzeyde farklılaşmadığı da tespit edilmiştir

Anahtar Kelimeler

Matematik kaygısı, cinsiyet, ilköğretim II. kademe öğrencileri
