Abstract

With the widespread use of mobile technology in education, individual learning came to the fore, which required the student to organize his/her work in the best way, that is, to develop self-regulation skills. This study examined the relationship between high school students' perceived self-regulation skills and mobile technology acceptance levels in mathematics learning. In addition, the study also examined students' self-regulation skills and mobile technology acceptance levels in mathematics learning in terms of gender, grade level and academic achievement averages. The research included students studying at a high school determined by the appropriate sampling method and evaluated the data of 752 students. The study used Student Information Form, Perceived Self-Regulation Scale and Mobile Technology Acceptance Scale in Mathematics Learning as data collection tools. The study also employed descriptive and relational screening methods. According to the research, a low positive correlation existed between high school students' perceived self-regulation skills and their mobile technology acceptance levels for learning mathematics. In addition, the perceived self-regulation skills of the students were above the average; and their mobile technology acceptance levels in learning mathematics were close to the average.

Özet

Eğitimde mobil teknolojinin yaygınlaşmasıyla birlikte bireysel öğrenme ön plana çıkmış, bu da öğrencinin işini en iyi şekilde organize etmesini, yani öz düzenleme becerilerini geliştirmesini gerektirmiştir. Bu araştırmada lise öğrencilerinin algılanan öz düzenleme becerileri ile matematik öğrenmede mobil teknoloji kabul düzeyleri arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Ayrıca araştırmada öğrencilerin matematik öğrenmede öz düzenleme becerileri ve mobil teknoloji kabul düzeyleri cinsiyet, sınıf düzeyi ve akademik başarı ortalamaları açısından incelenmiştir. Araştırmaya uygun örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenen bir lisede öğrenim gören öğrenciler dahil edilmiş ve 752 öğrencinin verileri değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplama araçları olarak Öğrenci Bilgi Formu, Algılanan Öz Düzenleme Ölçeği ve Matematik Öğrenmede Mobil Teknoloji Kabul Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada ayrıca betimsel ve ilişkisel tarama yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Araştırmaya göre lise öğrencilerinin algılanan öz düzenleme becerileri ile matematik öğrenmeye yönelik mobil teknoloji kabul düzeyleri arasında düşük düzeyde pozitif bir korelasyon vardır. Ayrıca öğrencilerin algılanan öz düzenleme becerileri ortalamanın üzerindedir ve mobil teknoloji kabul düzeyleri matematik öğreniminde ortalamaya yakındı.
