Frustration Level

The present study aimed to assess the Frustration level of high school students among their gender in relation to their Montessori and Traditional method of education. It was hypothesized that male and female high school students of Montessori education and Traditional education have significant difference on Frustration level. In order to verify the above hypotheses a sample of 120 students were selected from high schools which offer education with Montessori (N=60) and Traditional methods (N=60) include equally male and female students. To measure variable the Frustration scale was used which is developed and standardized by Chauhan & Tiwari (1999). This scale administered individually on the subjects. The data were subjected to ‘t’ analyses and the major findings of the study revealed that following are dawn: 1. The male and female students of Montessori education obtained ‘t’ value is 0.80, which is not significant level. 2. The male and female students of Traditional education obtained ‘t’ value is 2.19, which is significant at 0.05 level. 3. There is no significant difference between the male students of Montessori and Traditional education. The obtained ‘t’ value is 1.11, which is not significant level. 4. There is significant difference between female high school students of Montessori and Traditional education. The obtained ‘t’ value is 2.98, which is highly significant at 0.01 level.

This study explored how student engagement was related to perceived teacher autonomy support and self-determination skill expression among 145 Grades 9 through 12 African American high school students. First, we examined differences between male and female students’ engagement, perceived teacher autonomy support, and self-determination skill expression. Results indicated that male and female students did not report significant differences in the extent to which they were engaged in class, perceived their teachers as supporting their autonomy, and expressed indicators of self-determination. Second, regression analysis indicated that perceived teacher autonomy support and self-determination skill expression were significant, positive predictors of students’ engagement in class. An additional mediation model demonstrated that self-determination skill expression mediated the relationship between perceived teacher autonomy support and student engagement. Strategies for supporting African American high school students’ autonomy and self-determination skill expression are provided, as well as limitations and directions for future research.

The aim of this study is to investigate high school students&rsquo; geometry course achievement according to their learning styles. 11th grade students in İzmir constitute the general universe of the research and the sampling of the research comprises of 11th grade students in Karabağlar district. Sampling of the research consists of total 50 high school students, determined by using appropriate sampling method. 60% (n=30) of these students are female and 40% (n=20) of them are males. Both quantitative and qualitative research methods were used depending on the main and sub-questions of the research. Kolb&rsquo;s Learning Style Inventory was used in order to determine the learning styles of the students. As a result of the research, it was found out that most of the students who have diverging learning style were female students (77.8%), most of the students who have accommodating learning style were female students (75%), the number of male students (47.4%) and the number of female students (52.6%) who have assimilating learning styles are close and it was found out that, among the students who have converging learning style, female students (55.6%) were more than males. It was determined that there was no statistically significant difference between the geometry achievement scores according to learning styles and that the students&#39; geometric achievement means were statistically significant according to gender. It was proposed that taking learning styles into account in the regulation of education environments can help to increase achievement.
