Abstract

Considering the undeniable importance of science teachers in teaching science, this study was carried out to examine the average item difficulties in TIMSS 2011 with respect to various eighth grade student groups which were formed based on their science teachers’ background information and these teachers’ views on science learning environments. The results indicate that the average percentages of the students who answered science items correctly are higher in the group of students whose teachers have a major degree in science than those in the group of students whose teachers have a major degree in science education. In addition, the average percentage of the students who answered the science items correctly is lower in the group of students whose teachers preferred to use instructional strategies to engage their students in science instruction in most lessons than that in the group of students whose teachers preferred to use instructional strategies to engage their students in science instruction in only some lessons.

Özet

Fen Öğretmenlerinin fen öğretimindeki rolü yadsınamayacak kadar büyük olduğundan, bu çalışma TIMSS 2011’ de bulunan sekizinci sınıf fen sorularının ortalama zorluk derecelerinin fen öğretmenlerinin özelliklerine ve fen öğretimi hakkındaki görüşlerine göre oluşturulan öğrenci gruplarına göre hesaplanmasını amaçlamıştır. Sonuçlara göre, fen alanlarından mezun öğretmenlerin öğrencilerinin bulunduğu grupta, fen sorularının fen eğitimi alanından mezun öğretmenlerinin öğrencilerinin bulunduğu gruba göre daha fazla öğrenci tarafından cevaplandığı tespit edilmiştir. Bununla beraber, fen derslerinin çoğunda, öğrencilerini fen ile ilişkilendiren etkinlikler seçen öğretmenlerin öğrencilerinin bulunduğu grupta, fen derslerinin sadece bazılarında öğrencileri fen ile ilişkilendiren etkinlikler seçen öğretmenlerin bulunduğu gruba göre fen soruları daha az öğrenci tarafından doğru cevaplanmıştır.
