Teacher Acceptability

As more and more students with learning disabilities are being included in general education classes, concerns have arisen in regard to the low grades that these students are likely to receive. Although there is some evidence to suggest that teacher adaptations of grades are helpful, the extent to which teachers implement grading adaptations may be influenced at least in part by the teachers' perceived acceptability of the adaptations. One factor that may influence perceived teacher acceptability is student perceptions. Teachers may be unlikely to use adaptations that are perceived as negative by their students. The purpose of this study was to (a) assess high school students' perceptions of the fairness of grading adaptations, (b) identify factors (e.g., achievement level) that may influence perceptions of fairness, and (c) identify practices deemed most fair and acceptable to students with and without learning disabilities. This purpose was met by surveying and interviewing high school students with and without learning disabilities. The results of the surveys and interviews as well as their implications for grading students with learning disabilities in general education classes are discussed.

Scientific literacy is very important for students, so that they are able to live in the 21st-Century, including solving problems that occur in everyday life. This study was aimed to get an overview of the high school students’ scientific literacy profile in biology learning in the Surakarta City, Central Java, Indonesia. This research was an ex-post-facto, looking at the effects of school type and school status. The population was 8750 students from General High Schools, Vocational High Schools, and Islamic High Schools. The sample of 334 students was selected using the proportionate stratified random sampling. The data were collected using scientific literacy tests. The test instrument was prepared by translating the PISA tests on biology from 2006 to 2015 into Indonesian. The test does not take place simultaneously in all schools. The results showed the high school students’ biological science literacy in Surakarta City was very low, except for the private IHSs students, who gained the low category. If viewed from the trend of the achievement levels, high school students in Surakarta City get the lowest achievement level at level 6 and highest at level 5. It concluded the high school students’ scientific literacy in Surakarta City were very low.

The main aim of this study is to comparatively examine the “Studying and Learning Strategies” used by the students of Science and Anatolian High Schools, which are the general secondary instruction level in the Turkish Educational System, at Adana province example in Turkey. The study is a descriptive study, a relational survey model. The population of the study is 9th and 12th grade students who are studying in Anatolian and Science High Schools in the city center of Adana. This study group of this research is consisted of 393 students in 9th and 12th grades who were studying at Adana Science High School and Seyhan İMKB Anatolian High School in the spring term of the 2019-2020 academic year. As a data collection tool, the “Study and Learning Strategies Scale for High School Students” developed by Kutlu, Yapıcı and Korkmaz (2015), consisting of 46 items and five sub-dimensions, was used. As a result of the study, when the “Study and Learning Strategies” of the students are examined according to school types; It has been determined that there is a significant difference in the sub-dimensions of “Repetition” and “Enjoying Learning”. It has been observed that there is a significant difference between male and female students in “Repetition” and “Self-Confidence” sub-dimensions according to the gender of the students. There is no significant difference between the levels of 9th and 12th grade students studying at Science and Anatolian High Schools according to their grade levels.

<p>In this study, investigation of level of problematic internet use and psychological symptoms of 538 science high school students reciving education in Van and Izmir cities was aimed. At the same time, it was examined that according to being day or boarding student and gender whether the level of problematic internet use and psychological symptoms of students differ or not. The data collected eith Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) and Problematic Internet Use Adolscent Form (PIU-A). Data analysis was carried out through SPSS 15.00 statistical package programme. In analysis Spearman Brown correlation coefficient and Mann Whitney U test were used. According to obtained findings, there was stastistically significant and positive relationship between problematic internet use and psychological symptoms of science high school students. Negative self and somatization socres of day students were higher than broading students. It was found that the level of problematic internet use of boarding students were higher than boarding students. According to gender, it was found that females had higher score than males on four subscale of BSI (anxiety, depression, negative self and somatization) and males had higher score than females on social benefits subscale of PIU-A. Obtained results were discussed in the light of related literature and suggestions were offered.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Özet</strong></p><p>Bu çalışmada, Van ve İzmir illerinde öğrenim gören 538 fen lisesi öğrencisinin problemli internet kullanım düzeyleri ile psikolojik semptomları arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.

The Relationship

In Spain, curricular guidelines as well as the university-entrance tests for social-science high-school students (17–18 years old) include sampling distributions. To analyse the understanding of this concept we investigated a sample of 234 students. We administered a questionnaire to them and ask half for justifications of their answers. The questionnaire consisted of four sampling tasks with two sample sizes (n = 100 and 10) and population proportions (equal or different to 0.5)systematically varied. The experiment gathered twofold data from the students simultaneously, namely about their perception of the mean and about their understanding of variation of the sampling distribution. The analysis of students’ responses indicates a good understanding of the relationship between the theoretical proportion in the population and the sample proportion. Sampling variability, however, was overestimated in bigger samples. We also observed various types of biased thinking in the students: the equiprobability and recency biases, as well as deterministic pre-conceptions. The effect of the task variables on the students’ responses is also discussed here. First published December 2020 at Statistics Education Research Journal: Archives
