Comparing Teachers' Beliefs About Mathematics in Terms of Their Branches and Gender

Öz:
Bu makalede anlatılan çalışmanın amacı öğretmenlerin matematik hakkındaki inançlarını belirlemek ve matematik inançlarının branş ve cinsiyete göre olası değişimlerini analiz etmektir. Öğretmenlerin matematik inançları 20 maddelik bir ölçek kullanılarak; matematik öğrenme süreci, matematiği kullanma ve matematiğin doğasıyla ilgili inançlar açısından incelenmiştir. Veriler 195 sınıf öğretmeni, 52 fen öğretmeni, 40 matematik öğretmeni ve 37 okul öncesi öğretmeni olmak üzere 324 öğretmenden toplanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda şu sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır: (a) her ne kadar öğretmenler birkaç maddede problem çözme olarak adlandırılan bakış açısıyla tutarlı inançlara sahip olsalar da genel olarak enstrümantalist olarak sınıflanan geleneksel bir bakış açısına sahiptirler. (b) öğretmenlerin inançları cinsiyete göre değişmemektedir. (c) matematik öğretmenleri diğer branşlara göre daha geleneksel bir bakış açısına sahiptirler.
