The study group of the research consisted of 10 school principals working in independent secondary schools in the center of Bolu in the second school year 2021-2022 and 20 teachers working in these schools. The research data were collected using semi-structured interview forms developed by the researcher, and the data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and content analysis. The research found that both principals and teachers were positive and negative about principals' knowledge and skills in inspecting classrooms. Principals' problems in classroom observation, the appropriateness of principals' classroom observation, and the effects of principals' classroom observation on teachers' development were also revealed. In addition, it was found that both principals and teachers frequently mentioned the topic of in-service training for principals to make principal inspections more effective. It was also found that the influence and authority of principals should be strengthened, and teachers expressed strong opinions about increasing inspection time.","PeriodicalId":171092,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125613925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study, in which 364 pre-service teachers participated, is designed as a correlational survey model. Teachers’ Sense of Self-efficacy Scale, Attitude Scale of Teaching Profession and Motivation to Teach Scale are used as data collection tools. While the independent variables of the study are willingness to choose the teaching profession and academic success, dependent variables are teacher self-efficacy, attitudes towards teaching profession and teaching motivation. The result of the study suggests that as the general academic achievement average of pre-service teachers increase, their perceptions of teaching self-efficacy, teaching attitudes and teaching motivations also increase. The fact that pre-service teachers choose the teaching profession voluntarily affects their teaching self-efficacy perceptions, teaching attitudes and teaching motivations positively. There is a significant relationship between the pre-service teachers' teaching self-efficacy beliefs, their teaching attitudes towards teaching, and their teaching motivation levels. It is concluded that intrinsic motivation for teaching and teaching profession self-efficacy beliefs have a significant effect on attitude towards teaching.","PeriodicalId":171092,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126544807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides, it is an effort to organize a case, reorganize it according to new ideas, and concretize and rediscover the case to understand it better. This research aims to determine the effect of RME-based teaching against the traditional methods, develop a general opinion, and contribute to the literature. In the study, the meta-analysis method was used to synthesize the results of independent experimental studies examining RME's effect on academic achievement. The data set of the research was created in May 2020. Necessary searches were carried out within the ULAKBİM TR Index and YÖK Thesis database. As a result of these searches, 36 theses met the selection criteria to be included in the meta-analysis. The random-effects model was used in the research. As a result of the analysis, the calculated effect sizes were all positive. In the light of this finding, it has been concluded that in all studies, RME-based teaching was more effective than traditional methods on students' academic achievement in mathematics. A moderator analysis was also carried out to determine whether the effect sizes differed statistically significantly according to the variables of \"publication year, sample size, and educational stage.\" As a result of the moderator analysis, it was concluded that the level of academic achievement obtained from RME-based teaching practices carried out in different years differed significantly.","PeriodicalId":171092,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131516371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this qualitative case study, data were obtained from eight teacher candidates through online video case discussions implemented in three cycles among two separate groups. In the discussion platform, while one group focus on their own videos, the other group focus on expert teachers’ video. As a result, professional identity indicators, gathered under three themes, named task-based, profession-based, and self-interpretation-based indicators, were reflected in the discussions. Moreover, it is noteworthy differences between the own video-case discussion group and expert video-case discussion group in ‘profession-based and ‘self-interpretation-based’ dimensions of professional identity. Results suggest that especially discussing own video-cases can be a productive tool that helps the teacher candidates to make stronger theory-practice connections and feel like ‘a professional teacher’.","PeriodicalId":171092,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research","volume":"129 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123073907","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With this purpose, 74 master's and doctoral theses on skills teaching in the Social Studies course were included in the research. Descriptive content analysis was used in data analysis. The results demonstrated that there are mainly attempts towards practical implementations in skills teaching, and the teaching processes are attached importance in the Social Studies course. The investigation of the theses revealed that many studies were conducted on skills development, but the number of theses on social skills was limited. It was determined that there was insufficient explanation regarding the teaching-learning processes in some of these theses. However, the experiences of the researchers concerning the processes were not included in many of the theses. It was also observed that in some of the theses, there was no information about the assessment tools utilized, and some researchers were not critical of the results of the analyses. In addition, there was no scientific justification for the time allocated to the implementations in most of these theses. Researchers stated that they encountered problems due to insufficient implementation time in the process of skills development. The suggestions made by the researchers at the end of the process include updating the curricula and course books, eliminating the infrastructure deficiencies at schools, and providing in-service training to teachers.","PeriodicalId":171092,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Contemporary Educational Research","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125101352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
