In this study, it was aimed to translate and adapt the Computational Thinking Multidimensional Test (CTMT) developed by Kang et al. (2023) into Turkish and to investigate its psychometric qualities with Turkish university students. Following the translation procedures of the CTMT with 12 multiple-choice questions developed based on real-life…

Estimation skills matters most for both daily life and mathematics education. Teachers have great responsibilities in helping students acquire estimation skills. In this context, it can be said that investigating the pre-service teachers' sense of efficacy about their estimation skills deems important. In this regard, in this study, it was aimed…

This research aims to develop a reliable and valid scale to determine middle school students' self-efficacy about estimation skills. In addition, with the developed scale, the estimation skill self-efficacy of middle school students was examined in terms of various variables. For these purposes, a draft scale of 40 items was developed by reviewing…

In recent years, computational thinking has been considered as one of the 21st century skills that all students should have. Researchers emphasize the importance of determining and developing students' computational thinking levels from the earliest possible age. However, no measurement tool has been found in the literature that aims to reveal the…

The purpose of this study was to adapt the computational thinking scale developed by Tsai, Liang and Hsu (2021) into Turkish in order to determine the computational thinking skill levels of secondary school students according to such basic elements defined by Selby and Woollard (2013) as abstraction, decomposition, algorithmic thinking, evaluation…

Many education policy strategy documents at the European Union level, as well as national strategies of various countries, recommend including computational thinking as a fundamental skill in curricula. The professional development of teachers should be supported to disseminate computational thinking in K12 education. Teachers' value beliefs about…

The aim of this study was to assess the domain-general CT skills of 8th grade students in Turkey. In the study, first, the domain-general CT scale was adapted to Turkish, and then relations of the CT skills with gender, computer possession, internet access, and programming experience were examined. This survey research was conducted with the 284…

Weighted least squares (WLS), weighted least squares mean-and-variance-adjusted (WLSMV), unweighted least squares mean-and-variance-adjusted (ULSMV), maximum likelihood (ML), robust maximum likelihood (MLR) and Bayesian estimation methods were compared in mixed item response type data via Monte Carlo simulation. The percentage of polytomous items,…

In this study, it was aimed to carry out the validity and reliability study of Number Sense Screener (NSS)'s Turkish version for 60-71 month-old children. The universe of the study in which general survey model was used consists of children at 60-71 months of age, who were continuing their education during the spring term of academic year…

The objective of this study is to perform a validity and reliability examination of Number Sense Screener (NSS) by applying it to Turkish children aged 72-83 months. The universe of this general survey model study was constituted by 72-83-month old children showing normal development and studying at primary schools under the authority of the…
