Özet:

 

In
this study, eight-grade students’ estimation achievements in triangles were
analysed according to motivation types and knowledge type expectations. Three
hundred and thirty-seven students from three different elementary schools
attended in this study. In order to determine the students’ estimation
performances, an estimation test in triangles (ETT) was developed. At the end
of the study, it was indicated that the estimation performances of the students
in triangles related with high level intrinsic motivation and conceptual
knowledge expectation. It was also indicated that the estimation performances
of the students who have extrinsic motivation source were lower. Moreover it
was pointed out that the students expecting procedural knowledge from their
teachers had low level of estimation performance in triangles. This study shows
that estimation skills in triangles, one of the subjects of geometry, are related
with some important variables like motivation types and conceptual knowledge.
There are some important questions that should be answered by future studies
like ‘How can students’ estimation skills in geometry be developed? ‘How can it
be integrated into curriculum? What are the possible strategies students apply
and which factors are they related to?’.
