This paper explores the spatial dimension of Fleming's Left Hand Rule (LHR), commonly-used in Physics instruction for determining the direction of force using the left hand's thumb, forefinger and middle finger. A new instrument was developed to gauge students' ability to coordinate their fingers in 3D space (egocentric frame of reference) based…

In recent years, research has focused on the factor structure of the Teacher Sense of Efficacy Scale (TSES), and the significant effects of teachers' self-efficacy on both teachers' outcomes (teachers' performance, enjoyment of teaching, and commitment to teach), and students' outcomes (student learning achievements, motivation, and own sense of…

In this study, a valid and reliable scale (TSSSSS) was aimed to develop to measure secondary school students' perceptions of teacher support. The research was carried out on a total of 773 students studying in 6 different secondary schools in Ankara's Yenimahalle district in the Spring Term of the 2021-2022 Academic Year. The students who…

Young people's confidence in their creative abilities, as well as their beliefs about whether these abilities are fixed or malleable, play potentially important roles in educators' efforts to foster creativity. This study explores a multidimensional model of young people's creative self-beliefs that comprises creative self-efficacy,…

The purposes of this research are (a) to make an instrument to measure the achievement of project-based digitalpreneurship learning in students; (b) to describe the quality of the project-based digitalpreneurship learning achievement assessment instrument for vocational high school students; (c) to measure the competence and skills. This study…

This study aimed to develop a specific Mathematical Content Knowledge (MCK) test focused on multiplication for pre-service mathematics teachers in Indonesia and Türkiye. No assessment tool exists to measure MCK related to multiplication among pre-service mathematics teachers. We used convenience sampling to obtain data from third- and fourth-year…

This study aims to establish a Turkish version of the Children's Inventory of Anger Scale (ChIA) developed by Nelson and Finch (2000) to evaluate the intensity of anger experienced in potentially anger-provoking situations in children. The research sample consists of 502 primary and secondary school students attending their education in Hatay…

Background/Context: Recently there has been increased emphasis on disaggregating students' experiences collected through surveys based on student identities (Arredondo, 2016). Yet demographic data collection is problematic by nature, often reducing the complexity of an individual's racial, gender, or sexual identity to a single category. Racial…

Concurrent classrooms, also called hybrid classrooms, have become a well-liked teaching strategy. Research suggests that face-to-face and online set-ups are best integrated, combining their strengths to create a unique learning experience consistent with the context and intended educational purposes. However, more extensive research still needs to…

The Chemistry Self-Concept Inventory (CSCI) is a widely used instrument within chemistry education research. Yet, agreement on its overall reliability and validity is lacking, and psychometric analyses of the instrument remain outstanding. This study examined the psychometric properties of the subscale and item function of the CSCI on 1140 high…

The study aims to investigate students' conceptualisation of the quantum numbers concept through their verbal descriptions and pictorial representations of the corresponding atomic structures. The study was conducted with the participation of 192 12th-grade students from six secondary schools in Northern Greece, via a paper-and-pencil test,…

Self-assessment measures are commonly used in questionnaire surveys. However, one of the problems with self-reports is that they may be prone to differences in scale usage among respondents. The anchoring vignette method addresses this issue. It relies on two assumptions: response consistency and vignette equivalence. Here we aim to develop a…

This study aimed to adapt the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Strategies for Children Scale (CERQ-k) developed by Garnefski et al. (2007) into Turkish, and to carry out validity and reliability studies of the Turkish version for children aged between 9-12. The research was carried out with 657 students attending a Middle School in Istanbul's Pendik…

For investigating a comprehensive PLC framework, instruments are needed that capture the multi-layered PLC characteristics and that take into account the complex influencing educational context. Such instruments are currently lacking. This study aims at describing the development and validation of two qualitative classification instruments usable…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the educational process of students in terms of fundamental principles and approaches based on the constructivist approach in Turkey. In this study, which was carried out using quantitative methods, the internal consistency coefficient of the scale developed was estimated to be high. Cronbach's alpha…
