Ortaokul Öğrencilerinin Bakış Açısından Matematik Öğretmenlerinin Uyarlamalı ve Duyuşsal Desteği

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of affective support perceived by students on adaptive support in mathematics lessons and to examine both forms of support in terms of some variables. The correlational research method was used in this study. The study was conducted with secondary school students. Two scales measuring the perception of adaptive support and affective support were used. The relationship between students’ perceptions of support was explained with a structural equation model. According to the results obtained, affective support has a significant relationship with adaptive support. In addition, it was determined that students’ perceptions of adaptive support were independent of gender variable. In terms of grade level, it was observed that students in higher grades perceived that the teacher provided less adaptive support to students. There was a significant difference in perceived affective support based on both the gender and grade level of the students.
