Özet:

 


The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine differences in
developmental mathematics students’ self-efficacy within the demographic data
from the survey. Data from a sample of 240 Intermediate Algebra students at a
single four-year university using the Mathematics Self-Efficacy Results
indicate that males possess higher levels of mathematics self-efficacy and
confidence with their mathematical abilities than females. Students who
completed a lower developmental mathematics course prior to Intermediate
Algebra possess lower levels of mathematics self-efficacy. The results of this
study suggest developmental mathematics instructors should refine their
teaching methodologies by incorporating strategies to increase their student’s
self-efficacy.
