- Abstract
The aim of this research is to develop a valid and reliable measurement tool to measure the mathematics learning autonomy of high school students. At the end of the research, an item pool consisting of 144 items was created. The content validity of the item pool was examined by taking the opinions of 10 experts. As a result of the validity of the content, 92 items were eliminated and a pilot study was conducted with the remaining 52 items. Due to the Covid-19 epidemic, the scale, which was prepared in the form of an online form, was delivered to students studying in different types of secondary education institutions in Aydın province Efeler district, by classroom teachers, via Whatsapp class groups, since education continued through distance education. 1078 high school students voluntarily participated in the research. A total of 55 data that form a pattern from 1078 data were removed from the set. In the remaining 1023 data, it was determined that the scale has 6 factors (Self-Regulation, Learning Responsibility, Internal Motivation, Self-Control, External Motivation and Anxiety) with the help of exploratory factor analysis and Monte Carlo simulation to reveal the structure of the scale with 512 even numbered data. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, a scale with 6 factors and 41 items was obtained. 6 factors explain 47.50% of the total variance. As a result of the confirmatory factor analysis performed with the remaining odd numbered 511 data, it was seen that the fit indices obtained were at a sufficient level. Its reliability was calculated as α=0.82 using the Cronbach-Alpha method. In order to determine the two-half reliability levels of the developed scale, the Spearman-Brown correlation value was checked and r=0.83. With the independent sample t-test, it was determined that there was a significant difference between the scale total scores and the upper 27% and lower 27% groups. With these findings, a valid and reliable 41-item 6-dimensional scale was obtained that can measure mathematics learner autonomy for high school students.
