INVESTIGATION THE EFFECT OF TEACHERS’ MISBEHAVIORS ON PHYSICS SUCCESS

Özet

Misbehaviors can be defined as any behavior which negatively affects the learning environment. It has been figured out that the misbehavior of teachers negatively affects the learning issues. Therefore, this research was done to figure out the misbehavior of teachers and their effects according to students’ perceptions and also to research the relationship between the physics achievements of high-school students and the misbehaviors of teachers as well. The research was carried out with 294 students from three public high schools in the center of Konya in the academic year of 2017-2018. The 46,6% (f = 137) of the participants were male students, while 53,4% (f = 57) of participants were female. The data of this research were obtained by the "Teachers’ Aggression Behavior Scale" developed by Keçici, Beyhan, and Ektem (2013). The obtained data were analyzed by frequency, percentage, correlation and independent samples-t test in SPSS 16 program. According to the results of the research, male students’ perceptions about the mean score of the teachers’ misbehaviors subscale was found significantly higher than the female students. It was found out that the mean score of the male students related the effects of teachers' misbehaviors subscale was significantly higher than the female students. Also, it was found a negative correlation between the success of the physics course and the teacher's misbehavior score and the score of the teachers’ misbehaviors effects
