Araştırma öğretmen adaylarının öz yeterlik düzeyi ile yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimlerinin; cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeyine göre anlamlı bir şekilde farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığını belirlemek ve özyeterlik düzeyi ile yaşamboyu öğrenme eğilimleri arasında anlamlı bir ilişkinin olup olmadığını ortaya koymak amacı ile yapılmıştır. Araştırma Gazi Üniversitesi Gazi Eğitim Fakültesi’ nde öğrenim gören 242 sınıf öğretmeni adayı oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmada “özyeterlik ölçeği” ve “yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimleri ölçeği” olmak üzere iki ayrı veri toplama aracı kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen verilerle sınıf öğretmeni adaylarının özyeterlik ve yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimleri cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeylerine göre betimlenmiş, özyeterlik inançları ve yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimlerinin cinsiyet ve sınıf düzeylerine farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığı, özyeterliğin yaşam boyu eğilimini ne derece yordadığı incelenmiştir. Öğretmen adaylarının özyeterlik düzeyi genel olarak ortalamanın üstünde bulunurken cinsiyete ve sınıf düzeyinde göre anlamlı biçimde farklılaşmadığı bulunmuştur. Öğretmen adaylarının yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimleri yüksek bulunmakla birlikte cinsiyete göre değişmemektedir ancak birinci sınıf öğretmen adaylarının yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimi daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Öğretmen adaylarının özyeterlik ve yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimleri arasında orta (0.53) düzeyinde, pozitif yönlü anlamlı bir ilişki vardır. Analiz sonuçları Yaşam boyu öğrenme eğilimine ilişkin toplam varyansın, %28’sinin özyeterlik inancı ile açıklandığı görülmektedir.

The study group of the research consists of 307 social studies teacher candidates studying at the education faculty of a public university in the 2016–2017 academic years. The data collection tools used in the research, which was designed in relational survey model, are “Lifelong Learning Tendency Scale” developed by Diker Coşkun (2009), “Teachers’ Sense of Efficacy Scale” adapted into Turkish by Çapa, Çakıroğlu and Sarıkaya (2005) and a Personal Information Form prepared by the researchers. The data of the study are analysed using SPSS 24 statistical software. As a result of the research, it is found that the lifelong learning tendency levels of the social studies teacher candidates are high and their teacher self-efficacy levels are very high. Lifelong learning tendencies and teacher self-efficacy levels of teacher candidates show statistically significant differences in terms of grade level, and taking education for personal and professional development.

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between academic self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility levels of physical education and sports teacher candidates. The universe of the study consisted of 480 teacher candidates studying in the physical education and sports teaching departments of the sports sciences faculties within Selçuk, Erciyes, Süleyman Demirel and Mehmet Akif Ersoy Universities, and the sample group consisted of 192 volunteers from the specified population. Participants in the study were asked to fill in a personal information form, academic self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility scales. IBM SPSS 22.0 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) statistical package program was used to analyze the data. Arithmetic means and standard deviations of the scores of the volunteers from the scales were presented as X±Sd. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Analysis was applied to reveal the relationship of the data obtained from the scales. The value of p<0,05 was considered significant. As a result, it was determined that the academic self-efficacy and cognitive flexibility levels of physical education and sports teacher candidates were above average. A moderate positive correlation was found between academic self-efficacy and alternatives and control subtitles of cognitive flexibility and total of cognitive flexibility. It is thought that this situation is due to the ability of physical education and sports teacher candidates to transfer their experiences in sports life to their education life.
