Abstract

The aim of the study was to examine the metacognition levels of middle school fifth-grade students and their perceived mathematics teacher behaviors in terms of different variables. A survey model of the quantitative research methods was used. Convenient sampling was adopted from non-random sampling types in the study. 292 fifth-grade students of a public school located in the Central Anatolian region participated. “Students' Perceived Teacher Behaviors” (SPTB) and “Metacognition Awareness Levels of Students” (MALS) scales were used as data collection tools. Students perceived teacher behaviors and their metacognitive awareness levels were analyzed in terms of gender and age. As a result of the analysis, the metacognition levels of fifth-grade students had no effect on perceived teacher behaviors, and found relationship was not statistically significant. There is no significant mean difference in fifth-grade students’ metacognition beliefs and perceived teacher behaviors with respect to their gender.
